ADDERLink XDIP is a high performance KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) and AV extender that enables you to locate your critical computing hardware in a secure and temperature controlled environment away from the user work station whilst maintaining the original user desktop experience. The units are delivered as “Nodes” which means you can assign a role on setup, either transmitter or receiver. Using a standard IP network they can transmit up to 1920 x 1200 video stream, analog audio, USB2.0 and 2 channel audio over a single CATx cable. Each node also has a feed through port allowing a local user station the ability to switch between a remote computer and a local computer. The transmitting node allows USB and video to monitor the source computer.
High quality low video, real time control: The video extension system is compressed; every frame is sent with a minimal latency of 24ms (1.5 frames at 60Hz).
Single CATX cable required - No limitation on extension distances: Video, USB2.0 and audio all pass along a single minimum spec of CAT5e cable allowing reuse of existing infrastructure cables in the building. Distance is linked to the IP standard of 100m runs with a 40% overhead for safety. Longer distances are achieved by routing through your IP infrastructure.
USB 2.0: Enables connection of any USB human interface device: from mice and keyboards through to touch screens, graphics tablets, jog shuttles, joysticks and 3D explorers. Mass storage devices are NOT supported. Simple contention is used on the ownership of mouse control with a release after 2 seconds of non-movement between local and remote users.
EDID management: The extender has an intelligent EDID management to allow the true characteristics of the monitor to be passed back to the computer or alternatively, a fixed EDID can be specified.
Plug and Play: The AdderLink XDIP extender is delivered in a zero config state so you can plug the units in and start working with them straight away. There’s no need for drivers or software to be installed. A simple wizard takes you through setup at the start of life of the product.
CD-quality analog audio: The unit delivers CD-quality stereo audio (16-bit sampling at 48kHz) is available to transfer audio between local and remote. Headphones are also supported (up to 32 Ohms.
