The ST-C5USBV-300 USB Extender (XTENDEX) is designed to enable the relocation of a monitor, USB keyboard, and USB mouse from a USB CPU or NTI USB KVM switch by as much as 300 feet via CAT5 cable in addition to having a monitor, USB keyboard, and USB mouse connected locally.
The XTENDEX can be used between two cascaded NTI switches, but the master switch in the configuration will not be able to list the CPUs connected to the extended slave. The OSD menu in the extended slave would have to be used to monitor CPUs connected to it.
Local or Remote Unit with audio support to a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and stereo speakers- available in 3, 6, 10 and 15 foot lengths.

Note: CAT5 connection cable used between NTI XTENDEX Series Local and Remote or any XTENDEX Series products should not be run underground, outdoors or between buildings.
Note: If a SUN CPU is being connected, depending upon the video connector of the SUN CPU, it may be necessary to attach an NTI #13W3M-15HDF (SUN video port-to-VGA adapter) to the video port on the CPU first, and then connect the video cable to the adapter.
Figure 2- Local unit with audio support connects to CPU Connect the Local Devices If desired, connect the local user devices to the Local Unit as shown in Figure 3. Connect a USB keyboard and mouse to the USB type A female connectors on the Local Unit. Connect a monitor to the 15HD female connector on the Local Unit.
If the Local Unit has audio support (ST-C5USBVA-300) , connect the cable from the local self-powered stereo speakers to the 3.5mm stereo audio “AUDIO OUT” jack on the Local Unit. (See Figure 4) 4. If the Local Unit has 2-way audio support (ST-C5USBV2A-300), connect a microphone to the pink jack labeled “MIC IN”.
The Remote Unit Connect the Remote Devices Position the Remote Unit such that the CAT5 cable, the monitor cable, the keyboard and mouse, and the AC adapter power connector can each reach the Remote Unit comfortably. Connect the monitor cable to the 15HD female VIDEO port on the back of the Remote Unit. (See Figure 6) Connect the devices to the Remote Unit.
If the Remote Unit has audio support (ST-C5USBVA-300) , connect the cable from the remote self-powered stereo speakers to the 3.5mm stereo audio “AUDIO OUT” jack on the Remote Unit. (See Figure 7) 5. If the Remote Unit has 2-way audio support (ST-C5USBV2A-300), connect a microphone to the pink jack labeled “MIC IN”.
Rackmount Modules (optional) If ST-C5USBV-300M or ST-C5USBVA-300M XTENDEX rackmount modules (Local and/or Remote modules) are being installed, then an ST-C5RCK-12 Rackmount Extender Module Tray must be used (sold separately) to mount the modules to a RACK. ST-C5RCK-12 provides a convenient mounting method for up to 12 Local and /or Remote XTENDEX modules. Note: Rackmount Local modules are compatible with rackmount Remote modules or desktop Remote units.

Connect the CPU Connect a UMTINT-xx-MM (or UMTINTA-xx-MM if module has audio support) to the CPU, and then to the Local Unit at the connector marked “CPU”. Make sure all connections are firmly seated. (xx= 3, 6, 10, or 15 foot length) USB Type A male UMTINTA-3/6/10/15-MM 0.05 SCSI II series...
Connect the CAT5 cable Connect the CAT5 cable to the “CAT5” port on the front of the Local Unit (see Figure 14). When properly inserted the cable end should snap into place. Connect the other end of the cable to the “CAT5” port on the Remote Unit. WARNING: Never connect the ST-C5USBV-300M Extender to an Ethernet card, Ethernet router hub or switch or other Ethernet RJ45 connector of an Ethernet device.
Plug-in and Boot Up Plug the power cord(s) from the monitor(s) into power outlet(s). Connect the AC adapter power connectors to the 9VDC ports on the Remote and Local Units. (AC adapter shown in Figure Plug the AC adapters into power outlets. The “Power” LED (Green) on the CAT5 connector of each unit should illuminate, indicating that a proper power connection has been made.
COMMAND MODE The XTENDEX has two areas of user control that can be used as needed. The user can adjust video quality (described below), or enable/disable MAC mode (see page 17) These controls are accessed by entering Command Mode. To enter Command Mode, simultaneously press the left and right <Shift> keys on the keyboard connected to the Remote Unit.
MAC Mode MAC Mode enables the user to connect the Local Unit to a MAC CPU. MAC Mode configures the Local Unit for passing mouse information to the MAC CPU. This is useful when the user wants to use mouse drivers provided by the mouse vendor, which allows the use of programmable functions for each mouse button.
DDC SUPPORT DDC support allows the CPU to detect the video capability of your monitor by transferring EDID data from your monitor to the CPU. Automatic EDID Updates for ST-C5USBV(A)-300(M) The 15HD connector on the ST-C5USBV(A)-300(M) provides local video as well as DDC support. The EDID data is updated automatically at initial power-ON or whenever a different monitor is connected to the Local Unit.
