Introduction
Thank you for choosing the AdderView CATx series
from Adder Technology. Each of the four models
have been designed to take full advantage of CATx
structured cabling (where x means category 5, 5e or 6)
to provide high quality linking plus ultimate flexibility
for installers and operators alike.
At its heart the AdderView CATx is a tried and trusted
digital KVM + audio switch with 16 or 24 ports. In
its simplest form, the AdderView CATx allows up to
four users to maintain full control over multiple host
systems.
This description, however, is far from sufficient to tell
you that those four users can easily be situated up to
300m (980 feet) from the unit, using Adder X100 or
X200 extenders. It also does not tell you that, thanks
to our unique Adder CAM (Computer Access Module)
technology, the host systems can themselves be up
to 50m (160 feet) from the unit. In both cases CATx
structured cabling provides neat, easy-to-manage
and cost effective linking. The 16- or 24- ports of the
standard units are by no means the limit. By cascading
one or more AdderView CATx units you can easily
control up to 512 host computers.
The AdderView CATx IP variants introduce true global
control for the multiple host systems. Up to four global
users can share access to a computer from anywhere
via an IP network/internet connection using a Real VNC
client application. A modem/ISDN port provides an
alternative backup connection should the network link
suffer a failure. Optional power switch control allows
you to remotely perform a hard reset on any host
system, no matter how badly it has locked up. Finally,
to ensure that only authorised operators are given such
power, the AdderView CATx IP units feature enterprise
grade security.

Many computers
AdderView CATx units can directly support
either 16 or 24 computer systems. Multiple
AdderView CATx units can also be cascaded
to support a maximum of 512 computers.
Each system is linked using a Computer
Access Module (CAM) and category 5, 5e
or 6 cabling to a maximum distance of 50m
(160 ft) from the AdderView CATx unit.
Optional power control
The IP models provide the
opportunity to attach one or
more power switches. These
control the supply to the
system(s) and allow the global
user to hard reset any system
that has suffered a failure.
Local user
One user can
be connected
directly to the
AdderView CATx.
Modem/ISDN port
This port offers a
connection option
that can be used
alongside, or instead
of, the IP network
link. It also offers a
backup route should
the network fail.
Global users
The IP models can support
up to four global users
at any one time. All of
these may be connected
via the IP network port or
one may be linked via the
modem/ISDN channel.
Remote users
Up to four* users can be
linked, via Adder X100/X200
extenders and category 5, 5e
or 6 cabling, to a maximum
distance of 300m (980 ft).
* The IP models allow two
remote (extended) users.
CAM formats
The CAMs are available in
different formats to support all
common types of systems, which
can easily be mixed within a
multi-format configuration.
