Minicom Keyboard Video Mouse & Serial Extender

The Minicom 0DT50002A KVMS Extender is a powerful, long-range solution that extends your keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) and Serial devices up to 300m/1000ft from your computer over a single CAT5 cable.  The 0DT50002A KVMS Extender consists of a transmitter, a receiver, and a single interconnecting CAT5 cable. Easy to install, plug-and-play hardware means that it requires no software, creates no network conflicts, and is compatible with virtually any operating system. Advanced CAT5 technology eliminates troublesome cable clutter and adds to the ease and speed of installation. The receiver's small form-factor makes the system ideal for desktop and flat-panel mounting.

KVMS Extender uses proprietary skew compensation technology to deliver superior video quality over long distance. This greatly expands the operational envelope for both KVM and digital signage applications.  Bi-directional RS-232 gives full point-to-point, real-time Serial communication, enabling the extension of touch-screens and other useful Serial devices.

Minicom's KVMS Extender is ideal for banks, schools, museums, training centers, and kiosks - wherever the touch-screen console is in constant use by the public, and the associated PC must be kept separate and secure. In industrial applications, KVMS Extender enables PC's to run safely from the back-office while the user operates the KVM console from the production line. For clean-rooms, it makes PC's more accessible by extending the user's KVM console out of the controlled environment where the PC is held. KVMS's dual user/dual location function is ideal for creating increased worker productivity and efficiency.

KVMS's high quality video transmission enables plasma/LCD screen installations to be extended from media player PC's by up to 300m/1000ft with minimal video degradation. The dual user capability enables IT administrators to power on/off, and to query the status of the extended screen from the player PC site.
