USB VGA/Audio Cat 5 KVM Extender with USB Flash Storage (1024 x 768@250m)
The Aten CE800B USB KVM Extender with on-board audio allows access to a computer system from a remote console (USB keyboard and mouse, monitor, stereo speakers, and microphone). It is perfect for factory and construction sites, or any type of installation where the console needs to be in a conveniently accessible location, but you want the system equipment to reside in a safe place - away from dust, dirt, and harsh environmental influences.
The CE800B has built-in USB ports that support USB Mass Storage compliant flash drives. The addition of a Type B USB port on the local unit means that the flash drive facility is fully supported in both PC-only and KVM switch installation. The CE800B also is useful for control and security purposes. Store the system unit in a secure area while at the same time you put the console in a location that offers convenient access.
More reliable data transfer connection
Recognizing the increased importance of sound in the computing environment, the on-board audio feature of the latest CE800B allows audio (stereo microphone and stereo speakers) transmissions to be extended to the remote system along with the KVM data.
The CE800B USB KVM Extender further improves on previous designs by using compact Cat 5e cable – the kind commonly used in Ethernet networks – instead of bulkier, more expensive, standard cables. Cat 5e cabling makes for a much neater, more convenient, more reliable data transfer connection.
Built-in USB ports
Furthermore, the CE800B has built-in USB ports that support USB Mass Storage compliant flash drives. The addition of a Type B USB port on the local unit means that the flash drive facility is fully supported in both PC-only and KVM switch installations.
Setup is as easy as can be – simply connect the computer system box and local console to the Local CE800B Unit, run the Cat 5e cable to the Remote CE800B Unit (up to 250 meters away); and plug the remote console into the remote unit.
