The AdderLink ALTX/ALRX CAT5 KVM extender offers KVM extension over 200m (650
ft). The AdderLink is designed to control a PC or KVM switch remotely over
a single network cable. Serial RS232 is featured as standard, making the AdderLink
ideal for 'touch screen', remote industrial and other serial applications. The ALTX/ALRX
is ideal for use in harsh, manufacturing environments, digital signage applications
as well as broadcast and multimedia applications where the CPU can be located safely
in a secure, quiet and dirt free location.
