Some useful features of the Extender:
Enables a keyboard, monitor, and mouse to be located up to 200 meters
(655 ft.) of UTP or 100 meters (330 ft.) of STP from a computer or KVM
switch.
Uses a single Category 5 (or better) twisted-pair cable to carry all the keyboard,
video, and mouse signals.
Compatible with ServSwitch Wizard, ServSwitch Duo, and ServSwitch Quadro
KVM switches, so it can meet a wide range of KVM-switching and -extension
requirements.

Transmitters and receivers may be neatly rackmounted in a standard
19" equipment rack using the Extender Chassis. Other Extender-compatible
products such as the Chassis Power Supply and Skew Compensator may also be
mounted in this chassis. Each 2U-high chassis will house up to 16 local or

Fine user-adjustable video compensation enables the video quality to be
maximized for any given length of cable. Supports automatic and manual

adjusted once during setup. The chosen compensation setting is retained in
EEPROM memory even when the Extender is powered off.
In automatic compensation mode, the video compensation will be
automatically adjusted every time that the Extender is powered on or reset.
Keyboard data is kept in its native format, which ensures that the additional
keys on enhanced keyboards are supported.
Password security prevents unauthorized use.

modes for maximum compatibility.
