Gefen CAT5-8500 Dual USB KVM
Extender
Features:
Multi-Video Extension for
the Discriminating Computer
User
Designed for
triple-video extension, the
CAT5-8500 extends three
analog video monitors, one
RS-232 device, USB control
signals and audio hundreds
of feet from the computer.
Video, RS-232 and audio
signals can be effectively
operated at any distance up
to 600-feet while USB
control signals (for
keyboard/mouse) can operate
up to 450-feet from the
computer.
High Resolution Video
Extension
The CAT5-8500 sends
three analog monitors, one
USB-equipped keyboard/mouse,
one audio output, and one
RS-232 device (like a
touchscreen) far from the
computer using multiple CAT5
cables. It’s designed for
those situations where
multiple extended video
screens are desired. USB
control, audio and RS-232
support is provided to
enable remote operation for
improved performance.
Additional Video
Refinement
The CAT5-8500 operates just
like the CAT5-8000 but it
sends its video signals
separately using their own
CAT5 cable. This means it
requires an additional CAT5
extension cable but it also
enables video refinement
capabilities for the
extended monitors. Both
video signals can also be
extended a few hundred feet
further (up to 600-feet) if
needed. The CAT5-8500 is
often reserved for those who
have greater video
requirements.
Compatibility
The CAT5-8500 works with all
CRT and LCD computer
monitors, USB
keyboards/mice, RS-232 and
audio devices (Mac or PC).
- Saves space—no need
to make room for large
or small CPUs at the
extended location when
the CAT5-8500 provides
convenient and flexible
ways to isolate the CPU
and extend a multiple
video workstation
- Increased
productivity—a remote
computer workstation
allows computer data to
be input and accessed
on-site in real-time
- Improved
aesthetics—the CAT5-8500
eliminates computer
noise where you work
- Flexible
functionality—maintains
high resolution video,
support two types of
analog monitors (CRT and
LCD), DDC control
signals, USB and RS-232
peripherals
- High Performance
Technology—uses Extreme
USB technology for USB
extension, ensuring
control signals operate
optimally
- Multimedia
Enabled—audio is
extended for multimedia
applications
- Ease of use—installs
in seconds and are
rack-mountable
How it Works
The CAT5-8500 uses a
sender and receiver
methodology to transmit
signals from the computer to
the workstation. The sender
connects to the computer
using the cables provided.
The receiver connects to the
three monitors, RS232 and
audio devices up to 600-feet
away (USB can be extended up
to 450-feet). Up to 5 CAT5
extension cables, sold
separately, connect the
sender to the receiver and
thus the computer to the
extended workstation. Both
the sender and the receiver
must be connected to a power
supply. When fully powered
and operational, the units
extend all signals
efficiently and reliably.
Package Includes:
- Sender Unit
- Receiver Unit
- Three 6ft VGA cables
- One 6ft USB cable
- One 6ft Audio cable
- Two 5V Transformers
