Black Box ACU5501A-R4 KVM Extender - DVI-D, USB, Audio, Single-Access, CATx

Black Box ACU5501A-R4 KVM Extender, Two CATx Connections, Plug-and-Play Setup

Because the ACU5501A-R4 extender delivers full DVI digital video without compression or conversion, you get pure video displays with no loss of quality. The Black Box KVM Extender uses CAT7a cable to extend the keyboard, mouse, and uncompressed single-link DVI-D video up to 196 feet (59.7 m) at full 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz or 3840 x 2400 at 17 Hz resolution. It's ideal when you want to reduce environmental concerns, such as heat and noise, and ensure optimal temperature control.

You'll get different distances depending on what cable you use and if you make direct connections or patch panel connections.

The Black Box KVM Extender also delivers bi-directional USB data, enabling USB device extension over 196 feet (59.7 m) on the same CAT7a cable. This makes the extender ideal for distributed workstations where you want to reduce environmental concerns such as heat and noise, such as in post-production suites. The extender supports a variety of USB keyboards and mice and other human interface devices (HIDs) such as touchscreens.

The ACU5501A-R4 DVI/USB carries extended profile DDC EDID data from your display device to the display adapter to ensure that your system is configured to deliver optimal video performance. The extended profile DDC EDID is particularly important when extending the video to high-performance display devices. This is essential for professional graphics users such as post-production, broadcast, architecture, graphic design, medical imaging, CAD, or any other applications where display performance is critical.

With 19" mounting you can mount up to 16 local or remote units in the Rackmount Chassis for ServSwitch Wizard Extender (ACU5000A).

The local unit can be interface powered if your attached PC outputs do not exceed 500 mA. Otherwise, use the spare 5-VDC Power Supply (PS649-R3).
