System introduction
Thank you for choosing the Rose Electronics
CrystalView KVM
station extender. The CrystalView is the result of Rose Electronics
commitment to providing state-of-the-art solutions for today’s
demanding workplace. The CrystalView has proven to be a
valuable investment for any business, big or small, that has a need
to access CPUs from Remote locations.
The CrystalView is available in four models, the PC, SUN, MINI and
the PC-Serial/Audio model. All models are available in a single or
dual version. The dual version allows an additional KVM station to
be connected to the Local Unit.
The CrystalView system consists of two Units, a Local Unit and a
Remote Unit. The Local Unit connects to your CPU or a Rose
switch and the Remote Unit connects to a keyboard, video monitor
and mouse or KVM station. The Local and Remote Units are
connected together with industry standard CAT-5 shielded or
unshielded, solid core twisted-pair cable terminated with RJ45
connectors. The PC, SUN, and PC-Serial/Audio models can extend
the distance from the CPU with up to 1,000 feet of CAT-5 cable.
The MINI model has a distance of 150 feet. CAT-5 cable can be
ordered from Rose Electronics in 25-1,000 foot lengths.
Using the CrystalView to remotely access your computer has
several applications that make it convenient for the users. You can
locate your computers in a secure area and access them from other
unsecured areas. Computers used in hazardous industrial
environments can be accessed remotely, keeping the users safe
and unexposed to any hazards.
