User manual BELKIN F1D084

CAT5 Extender User Manual P73228 F1D084 Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Belkin Components CAT5 KVM Extender! The CAT5 KVM Extender allows users to control their computer or KVM switch from up to 500 feet away. It is perfect for isolated server rooms, large server farms, secure systems, or test benches where the computer may be inaccessible to the user. Featuring powered circuits to cleanly boost signals up to 500 feet away, the Belkin CAT5 KVM Extender preserves VGA signals up to resolutions of 1280x1024@75Hz with unmatched clarity. Other CAT5 Extenders are blurry. Plus, with local and remote console ports, you can take control from near or far. A 3-foot, all-in-one KVM cable for connecting the CAT5 KVM Extender to the PC or KVM switch is also included. For best results, we recommend using a solid, snagless CAT5 cable, such as Belkin A3L791-XXXSOL-S (where "XXX" is the length in feet). Contact your Belkin sales representative for more information. No other manufacturer offers a more complete set of KVM accessories! 1 Package Contents · CAT5 KVM Extender · 9VAC, 500mA Power Supply, 2 pcs. · PS/2 KVM cable, 3-foot · User Manual · Registration card 2 Product detail Local Module Front View Local Module Rear View Online Status LED Power LED Power Jack Reset Button Local Console Connectors CAT5 Jack Computer/KVM Connectors 500 ft. distance 250 ft.
