The Gefen EXT-CAT5-5000 simply and efficiently extends two analog monitors, a USB-based keyboard/mouse and audio signals hundreds of feet from the computer using CAT5 cables. The CAT5-5000 sends video, audio and control signals up to 330-feet from the computer. The EXT-CAT5-5000 uses two CAT5 cables to transmit the signals. It is designed for those who prefer to operate a dual-display computer workstation in a stable, quiet and secure location far away from the computer.  The CAT5-5000 works with all CRT and LCD computer monitors, USB keyboards/mice and audio devices (Mac or PC).

How the Gefen EXT-CAT5-5000 works

The EXT-CAT5-5000 uses a sender and receiver methodology to transmit signals from the computer to the workstation. The sender unit connects to the computer using the cables provided. The receiver unit connects to the two monitors, USB keyboard/mouse and audio devices up to 330-feet from the computer. Two CAT5 extension cables, sold separately, connect the sender to the receiver and thus the computer to the extended workstation. Both the sender and the receiver units must be connected to one power supply.  When fully powered and operational, the units extend all signals efficiently and reliably.
