The DVI KVM extender was developed to transmit high-quality video signals over longer distances without interference. The standard allows DVI connections to be stretched beyond conventional length limitations. End devices up to 11,000 yards away can be easily controlled remotely with a keyboard and mouse. In combination with a KVM matrix system, the DVI KVM extender provides more flexibility at the workplace. At the same time, high-quality and professional application possibilities can be guaranteed by the signal transmission.
A DVI KVM extender is a device that performs the functions of a KVM extender (keyboard, video, mouse) and can thus transmit DVI signals over longer distances.
Usually, a system with DVI KVM extender consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The DVI signals and the input data are transmitted via a connection interface. For example, Cat-5/6/7 cables or fiber optics are used as common feed lines.
In addition to signal transmission, the DVI KVM extender enables remote control of the connected equipment. A simple DVI KVM extender works with only one monitor, keyboard and mouse needed to control the end device.
In comparison, a matrix-compatible extender makes it possible to switch back and forth between multiple end devices. With the DVI KVM extender capable of handling a KVM matrix, entire systems can be controlled over long distances from different workstations in real time.
Data centers, server rooms, control rooms or other environments benefit tremendously from this technology. Control and monitoring of end devices can also take place in similar application areas.
