Aten CE350 KVM Cat 5 VGA/Audio PS/2 KVM Extender
The Aten CE350 PS/2 KVM Extender is a PS/2 based KVM extender with automatic signal compensation and RS-232 serial functionality, which allows access to a computer system from a remote PS/2 console (PS/2 keyboard, monitor and mouse). Because it allows access to a computer system from a remote device, the CE350 is geared for use in any type of installation where you need to place the device in an accessible location, but where you want the system equipment to be in a secure location, away from the dust and dirt of a factory floor, or the environmental influence of a construction site. This allows you to deploy the system equipment at a distance of 500'.
The CE350 is a KVM extender with automatic signal compensation. It includes RS-232 serial functionality and allows access to a remote computer system with a PS/2 console (PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 monitor and PS/2 mouse). Because it allows access to a computer from a remote console, the CE350 is the perfect solution for any installation where the console needs to be located in a convenient and accessible location, but with the premise of installing the system equipment itself in a safe place - away from the dust and dirt of the manufacturing plant or the environmental influence of a construction site. In this way, systems can be installed far apart.
