Dependant on the KVM module used, there will be either 8 or 16 RJ-45 sockets labeled as COMPUTER CONNECTIONS. Each
socket supports a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link to an individual server system.

KVT16CATUV ensure that the overall distance between a remote user (connected to a remote extender) and any server must not
exceed 300 metres (980 feet).
