Fiber Optic Kvm Extenders Are Available In Various TypesPosted by John Wright on December 5th, 2017 Extenders are usually devices that have been specifically designed so that distance between KVM stations (mouse), monitor and keyboard increases. Since USB keyboard, mouse protocols and PS/2 have been designed for running a distance of about a maximum of ten metres. The one thing to be noted here is that signal quality of the digital video typically starts to deteriorate beyond a similar length of the cable. Though, all of it is largely dependent on interface and the cable type yet the extenders offer the most convenient solutions. Signals can be easily transmitted over longer distances which are up to a hundred and fifty centimetres or may be even more via the IP connections or fibre. Thus, the primary function of the extenders is providing scaling the access and computer extension point-to-point. Here is a detailed summary on them. Use and the time one needs it
With the Kvm Extension Cable one can easily have their workstation controlled while they are sitting at various other corners. The various types available in the online sites include USB or four in 1 combo, miniDIN cable 8-pin and ATEN DVI USB cable of fifteen feet. Extenders with cables play a significant role in overcoming the limitations of bandwidth of the traditional DVI, HDMI and VGA cables. They also overcome USB protocol limitations along with that of the PS/2. Here are various applications they are used in and it is as follows.
Types of the extenders
You shall find various kinds of Fiber Optic Kvm Extenders which are capable enough in transmitting various kinds of signals. Here they are as follows.
Other kinds
Apart from the types of extenders mentioned above you can find the VGA extenders that are capable of extending great VGA signals over even greater distances. Some of them even come with an option for de-skewing that is built in for compensating effects of skewing.
