Modular DKM KVM extenders offer the most comprehensive selection of combinations for video and peripheral signals, allowing you to choose the KVM extender that best suits your specific application.

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 so you can use a wide range of analog video sources with the system. For 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. Additionally, they offer CATx or LC fiber connections for connection to a remote endpoint 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 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 both multimode fiber up to 1km and single-mode fiber up to 10km. The 2.5 Gbps high-speed modules are designed for demanding graphic applications, offering double the normal bandwidth.

Base modules are available in various video formats. Options include 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 ports for keyboard and mouse.

Modules with special features expand your possibilities even further. Redundant link modules are ideal for applications requiring a back channel or when two users need to share a video channel. Modules with an integrated 2-port switch are the perfect solution if you want to connect a local console directly to the computer in addition to the remote console, or if one console needs access to both a remote and a local computer. For pure HD video distribution, choose modules with a video-only interface. Using Wacom tablets or other broadband USB devices? Then opt for the transparent USB 2.0 module with 480 Mbps and a dedicated cable link.

Resolutions:

With digital video transmission without loss of quality, images appear as sharp as if they were directly connected to the workstation. Advanced video compression algorithms support 24-bit color depth for smooth gradients. Single Link DVI provides pixel-perfect resolutions up to 2048 x 1152, Dual Link DVI up to 2560 x 1600/2x2K, HDMI is displayed at up to 1080p pixel-perfect, 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” version with 21 slots. For critical applications, it is best to use versions with two power supplies for redundant operation. Choose between internal or external power supplies, AC power, or in industrial applications, DC with 12-, 24-, or 48VDC. The desktop chassis can also be mounted on a wall, under a desk, on a DIN rail, or in a 19” IT cabinet with optional mounting kits. Configure a chassis with a transmitter card for computer connection and a chassis with receiver cards for console connection.

Base modules provide the cable connection to the other side. Each chassis must be equipped with a base card. These provide either one or two video channels and two USB HID ports.

Upgrade modules transmit their signals over the base cards and therefore have no separate cable connection to the other side. This saves on 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 as desired with the base modules in a chassis.

The DKM converter modules enable the connection of video sources with analog video formats such as component and composite or industrial formats like EGA, CGA, or MDA. For graphic 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 loss-free over distance.

DKM FXC switching modules save space. They require two slots in the chassis but offer 8 ports and the full functionality of the DKM FXC matrix switches. Use these modules in the transmitter chassis to avoid the need for a separate KVM switch, giving users access to eight computers with instant switching. Choose between two versions with eight CATx or eight fiber connections.

Modular DKM extenders can be used as point-to-point extensions when the computer is located away 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 expansions, the modular DKM extenders work perfectly with KVM matrix switches from the DKM FX and DKM FXC series. In combination with DKM switches, you establish a freely scalable and flexible switching system that unites all resources within the company.
