Introduction
Overview
The CE770 is a USB (Universal Serial Bus) based KVM Extender with
Deskew function. The automatic signal compensation and RS-232 serial
functionality allow access to a computer system from a remote USB console
(USB keyboard, monitor, and USB mouse).
Because it allows access to a computer system from a remote console, the
CE770 is perfect for use in any type of installation where you need to place the
console where it is conveniently accessible, but you want the system equipment
to reside in a safe location – away from the dust and dirt of the factory floor, or
the harsh environmental influence of a construction site, for example. This
allows users to deploy system equipment over large distances.
The CE770’s automatic delay line synchronizing function (ATEN patent)
corrects RGB color phase and timing errors that occur over long distance
transmissions. It also enables you to manually tune the R/G/B signal settings,
store the settings and retrieve them later using the memory button.
The CE770 is also useful for control and security purposes, where you can have
the system unit in a secure area at the same time that you put the console in the
most convenient location for user access. This is ideal for managing highly
confidential data systems.
The CE770 improves on previous designs by: 1) RGB delay tuner – the CE770
supports RGB delay tuner to automatically or manually synchronize the RGB
signals; 2) the addition of an RS-232 port, on both the Local and Remote Units
– the RS-232 port on the Local Unit allows you to connect to a serial terminal
for configuration, while the RS-232 port on the Remote Unit allows you to
connect serial devices such as touchscreens and barcode scanners; 3) the
addition of a dedicated KVM port section on the Local Unit so you can simply
and easily include a KVM switch in your installation; 4) using inexpensive Cat
5e cable instead of bulkier, more expensive, standard cables, for a much neater,
more convenient, more reliable data transfer connection; 5) its ability to sense
the distance to the system and automatically adjust the gain accordingly; and
6) featuring a custom ASIC to ensure the utmost in reliability and
compatibility.
