KVM Extenders

Benefits of KVM Extenders

KVM Extenders have several benefits that make them popular among IT professionals and network engineers.

• They offer the flexibility to manage several computers or servers from a single location, saving time and increasing productivity.
• They reduce clutter and cable management issues by allowing users to keep their computers in a centralized location.
• They help extend the life of computers by reducing wear and tear caused by physical movement and handling.

KVM Extender Features

When choosing the best KVM Extender for your application, several factors must be considered. These include the range of the device, the video quality supported, and the compatibility with different operating systems. Extenders support standard video interfaces like DisplayPort, DVI, HDMI, VGA, and USB and broadcast these signals over Ethernet or fiber cables from a few hundred feet to kilometers. An extender kit comes with two devices, a receiver and transmitter, one located at the remote computer and the other at the console. Kits support from one to several computers.

The ACS4201A-R2, for example, supports computers with dual video ports to connect up to two monitors to the computer on the transmitting end of the link and two DVI-D monitors at the receiving KVM console. Now you can view two applications on each monitor,  eliminating tedious switching between them. Or you can expand many small windows across both monitors to provide more workspace.
