AN300 KVM extender Quick Installation Guide
VGA KVM Extender over Cat 5 - VGA, USB & PS/2 with built-in 2 port KVM switch up to 300mtr, Supports 1920 x 1200.
Introduction
The AN300 CAT5 KVM Extender can extend your keyboard monitor and mouse up to 300mtr away from your computer on a
single Cat 5 or Cat 6 UTP cable.
The Cat5 KVM Extender comprises two distinct units – the Receiver (RX) Unit and the Transmitter (TX) Unit. The Transmitter
includes local console ports and allows a user to access the computer at the local end, while also extending its keyboard,
mouse and video up to 300mtr to the Receiver unit at the remote end.
The Receiver Unit has a built-in 2 port KVM switch, and therefore can also be connected to another computer at the Receiver
end and perform switching between the remote computer (connected to the TX) and the local computer (connected to the
RX).
Applications include remote access of computers or servers for security reasons, factory floors or warehouses not
environmentally suited to a computer or point of sale applications where space for a computer is limited. It allows the user to
manage and control the computer at both locations together with the capacity of switching between the original computer
and a second computer on the Receiver end.
