The modular DKM KVM extenders offer the widest selection of video and peripheral signal combinations, ensuring you get the right KVM extender for even the most specific applications.
The modular DKM KVM extenders consist of chassis with 2, 4, 6, or 21 slots, base modules with video and two USB HID interfaces, and upgrade modules for peripheral connections. Special converter modules provide analog to digital conversion, allowing you to use various analog video sources with the system. For particularly space-saving installations, an 8-port switching module is available, offering the same functionality as the DKM FXC switches.
Base Modules:
The modules on this page provide one or two video ports and two USB HID connections for keyboard and mouse. They also feature CATx or LC fiber connections to the remote counterpart or, in a switched environment, to the central KVM switch. Each modular DKM extender chassis must be equipped with at least one base module.
Choose between CATx cable connections, fiber with 1 Gbps, or high-speed fiber with 2.5 Gbps, depending on the desired distance and video bandwidth. CATx connections are ideal for shorter distances up to 140m. Fiber modules support multimode up to 1km and singlemode cables up to 10km range. The 2.5 Gbps high-speed modules are designed for demanding graphics applications, offering twice the normal bandwidth.
Base modules are available in various video formats. Choose from Single Link DVI-D, DVI-I with VGA input and DVI-D output, Dual Head DVI-D, HDMI, and DisplayPort, each with two USB HID connections for keyboard and mouse.
Modules with special features expand your possibilities. Modules with redundant links are ideal for applications that require a return channel or when two users need to share a video channel. Modules with an integrated 2-port switch are the perfect solution when, in addition to the remote console, a local console needs to be connected directly to the computer, or when a console needs to access both a remote and a local computer. For pure HD video distribution, choose modules with video-only interfaces. For Wacom tablets or other high-bandwidth USB devices, select the transparent USB 2.0 module with a speed of 480 Mbps and its own cable link.
Resolutions:
With the digital transmission of the video signal without loss of quality, images are as sharp as if they were directly connected to the workstations. Advanced algorithms for video compression support 24-bit color depth for smooth gradients. Single Link DVI delivers pixel-perfect resolutions up to 2048 x 1152, Dual Link DVI up to 2560 x 1600/2x2K, HDMI is displayed pixel-perfect up to 1080p, and DisplayPort even up to 4K over the full distance.
DKM Modular Extenders Overview:
The chassis are available in desktop versions with two, four, or six slots, as well as in a 19-inch version with 21 slots. For critical applications, the versions with two power supplies for redundant operation are recommended. Choose between internal or external power supplies, AC power, or DC power with 12-, 24-, or 48VDC for industrial applications. Desktop enclosures can also be mounted on walls, under desks, or in a 19-inch IT rack using optional mounting kits. Configure a chassis with transmitter cards for connecting the computer and a chassis with receiver cards for connecting the console.
Base modules provide the cable connection to the remote side. Each chassis must be equipped with at least one base module, which offers one or two video channels and two USB HID ports.
The upgrade modules transmit their signals through the base cards and thus do not require their own cable connection to the remote side, saving infrastructure costs and space. Choose from a variety of interfaces, such as USB HID, PS/2, embedded USB 2.0 with 36 Mbps, serial RS-232 or RS-422 data, bidirectional analog audio, and uni- or bidirectional digital audio. Combine the cards with the base modules in one chassis.
The DKM converter modules allow the connection of video sources with analog video formats such as component and composite, or industrial formats like EGA, CGA, or MDA. For graphics applications, there are additional options for SDI, HD-SDI, or 3G-SDI. The converter modules convert analog signals into digital DVI-D signals and transmit them losslessly over the distance.
The DKM FXC switching modules offer real space savings. They require two slots in the chassis, but offer eight ports and the full feature set of the DKM FXC matrix switches. Use these modules in the transmitter chassis to avoid purchasing a separate KVM switch, giving your user access to eight computers with instant switching. Choose between two versions with eight CATx or eight fiber connections.
The modular DKM extenders can be used for point-to-point extensions when the computer is located remotely from the user console. They offer the widest range of interfaces and the highest video quality, making them ideal for graphic users and users of specialized peripherals. In larger switched extensions, the modular DKM extenders work perfectly with the KVM matrix switches of the DKM FX and DKM FXC series. In combination with the DKM switches, you establish a freely scalable and flexible switching system that integrates all resources within the company.
