The KE6900A extender is consisted of a high performance IP-based transmitter (KE6900AT) that connects to the computer and a receiver (KE6900AR) that provides console access from a separate location. The KE6900A allows extended access of computer systems remotely via USB consoles (USB keyboard, USB mouse, DVI monitor) over intranet, enabling users to place the computer system in secure and temperature controlled environments, which maybe isolated from users’ workstation.

The KE6900A DVI-I Single Display KVM over IP Extender supports one DVI display at each end and provides lossless and low latency video transmissions up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz.

The KE6900A supports connections via an RJ-45 port or a SFP slot. The transmitter and receiver can be connected either directly to each other, or via a high-speed network over a copper-based or fiber-based LAN. Connecting via the SFP slot with 1Gbps SFP fiber module* expansions on fiber optic network, you can extend transmission distances up to 10km. The KE6900A also features dual power supplies for redundancy to ensure dependable services.

As an IP-based matrix extender, the KE6900A can be used as a point-to-point / point-to-multipoint / multipoint-to-point extender, or integrated into a KVM over IP Matrix System (multipoint-to-multipoint) when combined with the KE Matrix Management Software (CCKM), providing more flexible applications in different working environments.

Implementing the KE Matrix Management Software (CCKM) with KE6900A, IT administrators can benefit from advanced features such as auto detection of all KE6900A devices on the same subnet for the sake of fast installation or configuration, username/password authentication and authorization, and the ability to define different types of connections that can be switched and shared. Security features also provide extra protection, supporting AES-128bits encryption for secured data transmissions, while RADIUS, LDAP, AD or remote user authentication provides an added layer of connection security. Moreover, with an OSD, RS-232 support, and Auto MDIX, the KE6900A is the most cost-effective and convenient way to get a full digital extension from anywhere on the intranet.
