NTI XTENDEX 600 Foot Extenders Rackmount Modules (optional) If ST-C5-600M Series 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.
NTI XTENDEX 600 Foot Extenders Connect the CPU Connect a cable between the Local Unit and the CPU. Use the appropriate cable for the application (see chart below). Figure 18 shows the proper connections for the ST-C5KVMA-L-600M using a VMATINT-xx-MM cable (xx= 3, 6, 10, 15 or 25 foot length).
NTI XTENDEX 600 Foot Extenders Connect the Devices Connect a cable to the monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers (if supported), and touch screen RS232 cable (if supported) and then to the Local or Remote Unit at the connector marked “USER”. Figure 19 shows the proper connections for the ST-C5KVMA-R- 600M (remote unit) using a VMATINT-xx cable (xx=3,6,10,15 or 25 foot length).
NTI XTENDEX 600 Foot Extenders Connect the CAT5 cable Connect the CAT5 cable to the “CAT5” port on the front of the Local Unit (see Figure 20). 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.

NTI XTENDEX 600 Foot Extenders VIDEO QUALITY Automatic Video Quality Adjustment (see chart on page 1) Video quality adjustment is done automatically to assure the image is as clear as possible. Note: When the cable is longer than 300 feet some colored lines can be seen at the black-to-white transitions. This is a normal behavior and is caused by the different twisting rates of each pair of wires in the CAT5 cable.
