or remote station—
nearly 1000 feet
(304.8 m) from a CPU,
ServSwitch, or local
station.
Fully adjustable video
equalization, even at
long distances and
high resolutions.
Compatible with most
keyboards, monitors,
and mice.
ACU1049A features
switching capabilities!
A remote station can
switch between the
local and remote CPUs
with a keyboard code.
I
t’s time you put your servers,
CPUs, and ServSwitch
™
family
KVM switches in safe locations
where they can be administered
easily and kept secure.
The ServSwitch CAT5 KVM
Extenders send keyboard, video,
and mouse signals long distances
across a single solid-core 4-pair
Category 5 UTP or STP cable.
(If possible, do not use “higher”
cables—CAT5e, Category 6, and
so on—because the tight wire
twists in these cables actually
degrade video signals.
Plug your monitor, keyboard,
and mouse (or a cable running to
one of the CPU ports of a KVM
switch) into an extender’s Remote
Unit. Then run CAT5 cable from
the Remote Unit to the extender’s
Local Unit. Use extension cable(s)
to connect your CPU or the user
port of a KVM switch to the Local
These extenders go the distance
for KVM signals and delivering
sharp video. One even provides
inexpensive switching!
Key Features
SERVSWITCH CAT5 KVM EXTENDERS
Unit. Plug everything in, turn
everything on, and go!
The extenders fully buffer all
the signals they carry, so you
won’t see delays, flickering, and
herky-jerky mouse movement.
You can use a Remote Unit’s
Brightness and Focus dials to
adjust the screen image and bring
it as close to clarity as it can get.
The extenders require no
software and are compatible with
all operating systems and a wide
variety of hardware, including the
Microsoft
®
IntelliMouse
®
.
The Local Units perform
complete PS/2
®
keyboard and
mouse emulation, so you can
unplug or replug your keyboard
and monitor without worrying
about disrupting the booting or
operation of your CPUs.
The Single-Access model
(ACU1001A) sends your keyboard,
monitor, and mouse signals nearly
1000 feet (304.8 m) from a local
CPU to a remote user station.
With the Dual-Access model
(ACU1009A), you can also attach
a local user station that contends
with the remote station for CPU
control.
The ServSwitch CAT5 KVM
Switching Extender (ACU1049A) is
similar to the regular extenders in
that you can place your remote
workstation nearly 1000 feet
(304.8 m) away. It, too, features
keyboard and mouse emulation
and video equalization.
The ACU1049A is also a
switch. It enables the remote
station to switch between the
local CPU and remote CPU with
a simple keyboard code.
Its Double Private Mode locks
out the second workstation,
preventing conflicts.
