Developed for enterprise organizations and high-pressure control rooms, it combines the simplicity of true plug and play and high performance 4K KVM extension; resulting in superior functionality and flexibility in a cost-effective, reliable and straightforward solution.
- Dual-head 4K60 video, USB2.0 and audio
- Point-to-point protocol for ultra-low latency
- Flexibility between copper and fiber connectivity
- Adder’s USB emulation ensures reliable computer bootup
High-resolution video, real-time control
The system supports resolutions up to 4096×2160 @ 60Hz using 8 bits per color and 4:4:4 chroma sampling.
Single cable
Video, audio, USB HID (human interface device), hi-speed transparent USB and RS232 signals are transmitted over a single CATx or fiber cable.
Up to 4km/2.5 mile extension distances
The ADDERLink XD642 supports both copper and fiber interfaces. It provides a range of up to 100m over a CAT6 cable link, and up to 4km over an optical fiber link.
Emulated USB2.0
Enables connection of any full and low speed USB HID from mouse and keyboards through to graphics tablets and joysticks.
Transparent USB2.0
Mass storage devices and isochronous devices, such as webcams and audio headsets can be used through the transparent USB2.0 hi-speed port.
EDID management
The system has intelligent EDID management to allow the true characteristics of the monitor to be passed back to the computer.
Plug and Play
The ADDERLink XD642 extender is delivered in a zero config. state so it works, without the need for drivers or software, as soon as it is connected.
