Computer Interface Modules (CIMs)
Question
Answer
What type of video is supported by
your CIMs?
Our CIMs have traditionally supported analog
VGA video. Three new CIMs support digital
video formats, including DVI, HDMI and
DisplayPort. These are the
D2CIM-DVUSB-DVI, D2CIM-DVUSB-HDMI
and D2CIM-DVUSB-DP.
Can I use computer interface
modules (CIMs) from Paragon,
Raritan’s analog matrix KVM
switch, with Dominion KX II?
Yes. Certain Paragon computer interface
modules (CIMs) may work with Dominion KX II.
(Please check the Raritan Dominion KX II
Release Notes on the website for the latest list
of certified CIMs.)
However, because Paragon CIMs cost more
than Dominion KX II CIMs (as they incorporate
technology for video transmission of up to
1,000 feet [304 m]), it is not generally advisable
to purchase Paragon CIMs for use with
Dominion KX II. Also note that when connected
to Dominion KX II, Paragon CIMs transmit
video at a distance of up to 150 feet (46 m), the
same as Dominion KX II CIMs – not at 1,000
feet (304 m), as they do when connected to
Paragon.
Can I use Dominion KX II
computer interface modules
(CIMs) with Paragon, Raritan’s
analog matrix KVM switch?
No. Dominion KX II computer interface
modules (CIMs) transmit video at ranges of 50
feet to 150 feet (15 m to 46 m) and thus do not
work with Paragon, which requires CIMs that
transmit video at a range of 1,000 feet (304 m).
To ensure that all Raritan’s customers
experience the very best quality video available
in the industry – a consistent Raritan
characteristic – Dominion series CIMs do not
interoperate with Paragon.
