AdderView CATx 1000

Compact, 8- and 16-Ports CATx-Based Multi-Platform KVM Switch with Local and Remote Access and Optional Audio Support.

AdderView CATx 1000 is a small form-factor, multiplatform KVM switch with audio support that allows a user to control up to 16 computers connected CAT-5/6/7 cable locally at the switch or remotely up to 1,000 feet away.

The use of CATx cable from the computer to the switch allows for a much smaller switch, greatly reduced cable bulk and more flexibility. The AdderView CATx 1000 has been designed to minimize space requirements where space is at a premium and maximize flexibility both in use and location.  One or two of the KVM switches can be rack mounted for high density applications (up to 32 ports in 1U) and cascaded with other AdderView CATx 1000s to support up to 256 computers.

AdderView CATx 1000 delivers a wide range of features including digital stereo audio, high resolution video, USB device control and an advanced on screen display and serial control for remote switching, power control and synchronizing with other CATx 1000 units. 

Users can also leverage security profiles which identify the user prior to handing over control and even duplicate the connection profiles onto other AdderView CATx 1000 devices if required.  Another impressive feature is Display Data Channel (DDC) handling where the KVM uses specific information transferred from the display device to ensure correct video is maintained with host machines.

The AdderView CATx 1000 can be connected to just about any type of host including PC, Server, Mac or Sun by utilizing CATx-Based Computer Access Modules (CAMs) [Dongles] to enable broad connectivity options.

The AdderView CATx 1000 carries keyboard country codes enabling different keyboards from different countries to be used on Sun hosts.  The KVM switch also uses 'keep alive' technology which maintains the impression of keyboard and mouse being present, even when disconnected for a long period of time between KVM selections.
