Extends USB and audio up to 330ft
The Gefen EXT-CAT5-5500 extends two analog monitors, a USB-based keyboard/mouse and audio signals hundreds of feet from the computer using CAT5 cables. The EXT-CAT5-5500 sends video, audio and control signals up to 450-feet from the computer. The EXT-CAT5-5500 uses three CAT 5 cables. This KVM extender has additional trim pods controls for brightness and focus for enhanced control of your video quality. Both are designed for those who prefer to operate a dual-display computer workstation in a stable, quiet and secure location far away from the computer. It will work with all CRT and LCD computer monitors, USB keyboards/mice and audio devices (Mac or PC).
How the Gefen EXT-CAT5-5500 works:
The EXT-CAT5-5500 uses a sender and receiver methodology to transmit signals from the computer to the workstation. The sender unit connects to the computer using the cables provided. The receiver unit connects to the two monitors, USB keyboard/mouse and audio devices up to 450-feet from the computer. Two CAT5 extension cables, sold separately, connect the sender to the receiver and thus the computer to the extended workstation. Both the sender and the receiver units must be connected to a power supply. When fully powered and operational, the units extend all signals efficiently and reliably
