The Raloy RKHE-CATx4KHDMI 4K HDMI KVM extender with USB hub bridges the physical gap between users and their computing hardware through point-to-point signal delivery. Utilizing standard CATx cabling, signals can travel up to 100 meters allowing complete control over remote systems from a single desktop console comprising a keyboard, monitor, and mouse, while the integrated USB hub enables efficient sharing of peripheral devices over long distances. The RKHE-CATx4KHDM is the ideal solution for eliminating desktop noise and heat by relocating equipment away from the user or for providing access to compute equipment housed in isolated, secure, and/or protected environments.
The Raloy RKHE-CATx4KHDMI KVM Extender is built on the new-generation HDBaseT 3.0 platform. It can transmit uncompressed video signals up to 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 8-bit over a single 100m Cat 5/ 6/ 6A or U/FTP cable. An HDMI output port is included on the transmitter for local HDMI loop-out. The RKHE-CATx4KHDMI supports audio pass-through from the transmitter to the receiver, and provides audio de-embedding on both sides. Both the transmitter and receiver include an RS232 port for bidirectional pass-through or firmware upgrades, which are selectable via an onboard DIP switch. Utilizing one-way PoH (Power over HDBaseT), only a single power adapter connected to the receiver is required to power both units.
This solution is ideal for HD security monitoring, multimedia publishing, video conferencing, multimedia classrooms, centralized computer management, outdoor advertising, large-screen videowall applications, and more.
