ATEN Unveils First KVM Extenders with Support for DVI and USB

ATEN unveiled new DVI- and USB-based KVM extenders with RS-232 serial functionality that is ideal in a range of installations such as manufacturing, security and healthcare.

Taipei, Taiwan, October 22, 2011 --(PR.com)-- ATEN International, a leading designer and manufacturer of advanced connectivity solutions, has today unveiled its first DVI- and USB-based KVM extenders with RS-232 serial functionality. The CE600/CE602 KVM Extenders provide access to a computer or KVM switch from a remote console (USB keyboard, monitor and mouse). The CE600/CE602 is ideal in a range of installations such as manufacturing, security, healthcare and more. In industrial environments, for example, users can access and configure computers located in hazardous environments from a remote, safe location.

With support for RS-232 functionality, users can connect the CE600/CE602 to a serial terminal or devices such as touchscreens and barcode scanners located within movie theaters, retail stores and restaurants. The CE600/CE602 both support high video resolutions from long distances and feature built-in, exclusive ATEN technology that allows the transmission of audio and video signals over one CAT5e cable. The CE600 utilizes CAT5e cable to support video resolutions of up to 1920 x 1200@60Hz at a distance of 30 meters (Single Link DVI). For resolutions as high as 2560 x 1600@60Hz from 40 meters (Dual Link DVI), the CE602 can leveraged when combined with a second CAT5e cable for the transfer of HDCP, RS-232, microphone and dual-link signals. From 60 meters away, the CE600/CE602 extenders can support a resolution of 1024 x 768@60Hz. Additionally, both models support manual compensation control where users can adjust video signal strength in order to compensate for distance.

"Our new KVM extenders are an ideal solution for any installation with computers that are kept in controlled spaces,"said Kevin Chen, President of ATEN International. "With computers are located in a secure area, users are provided with convenient access to a console in a safe location -- away from dust and harsh environment influences."
