The KE8900SR Slim HDMI KVM over IP Extender is a compact and affordable high performance IP-based receiver that allows access to a computer system from a remote USB console (USB keyboard, USB mouse, HDMI monitor over an intranet, enabling users to locate computers in a secure and temperature controlled environment, which is isolated from users’ workstation. All the extenders can be paired with any KE series* receiver or transmitter for a savings solution that stays within budget.
The KE8900SR supports one HDMI monitor output. The receiver provides video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz and offer flawless and lossless video quality with extremely low latency. The extender also supports Virtual Media function and RS-232 serial commands.
The KE8900SR can be set on a desk, mounted on a wall or at the rear of a rack with its space-saving 0U rack mount design. Moreover, the KE8900S 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 KVM over IP Matrix Manager (CCKM), providing more flexible applications in different working environments.
The KVM over IP extender provides multiple ways for configuration, such as the receiver’s local OSD, CCKM, or RS-232 / Telnet text menu. The KVM over IP extender also offers enhanced security features such as supporting AES encryption for secured Video / Keyboard / Mouse / USB data transmissions and RADIUS / LDAP / AD or remote user authentication that provides an added layer of connection security.
When integrated with the CCKM, the KVM over IP extender supports more advanced features such as boundless switching, fast switching, video wall, multi display, profile scheduling, auto detection of all KE Series extenders on the same subnet for the sake of fast installation or configuration, as well as username / password authentication and authorization. Please refer to the CCKM webpage for more details.
When working without the CCKM centralized management, the KVM over IP extender features the Slim Matrix Mode that makes up to 12 units of KE6900ST / KE8900ST / KE9900ST connect with unlimited Rx units. It means up to 12 IPs can be used to set transmitters.
Whether the user is configuring, monitoring, administrating, controlling or extending computer access, the KVM over IP Matrix System is made adaptable, to fit an endless variety of working environments and workstation settings, as well as to provide solutions in broadcasting, control center, multimedia, manufacturing and many other industries where matrix extending is required.
