Appendix B- Thinklogical KVM Extenders
The Logical Solution
VelocityKVM Extension Systems are designed for high performance visual applications that require DVI,
SDI or RGB video as well as peripheral support (VelocityKVM-5 supports DVI or RGB). The system
allows users, via optical fiber, to station and operate a digital monitor(s) and peripherals from just a few
meters away to up to 40 kilometers away from the controlling computer, securely and without loss of
resolution. Each of the VelocityKVM Systems is designed to support PS2, full duplex stereo audio, serial
(RS-232), USB 1.0 (HID) and USB 2.0 (up to 480 Mbps).
VelocityKVM products are ideally suited for a wide range of applications in the broadcast and post-
production field, as well as command and control centers, universities, large scale digital signage and
other commercial KVM applications.
Theory of Operation
MRTS Technology
6.25 Gbps. Allows for Full Frame Rate Transmission of Uncompressed DVI
Powered by Thinklogical’s cutting edge
MRTS Technology ( M ulti R ate T ransmission S ystem), this KVM
extension system transports every frame of a DVI video stream seamlessly, with no compression or
dropped frames. In addition, all high speed peripherals function with no latency. Leveraging standard
SFP+ transceivers, the system allows for the use of either multi-mode or single-mode fiber optic cable.
The System
The VelocityKVM Extension System has a simple transmitter/receiver design which allows for ease of
installation and straight-
forward deployment. Depending on the user’s infrastructure, the transmitter and
the receiver can be connected by a multi-mode or single-mode fiber optic cable. The transmitter unit
connects to the CPU with the supplied peripheral cables. In addition, a local video, keyboard and mouse
port is available on the transmitter. The receiver unit provides connections to the user interface devices.
Why Fiber?
The limit on how much bandwidth or data that can be carried across a copper line can become a
bottleneck for enterprise access and ultimately, for revenue. This bottleneck often appears in heavy-
volume, metropolitan area networks. Fiber Optic Cable alleviates this problem by offering substantially
greater bandwidth.
The VelocityKVM Distance (up to 350m using 50/125µm fiber)
Multi-mode fiber is designed for transmission distances such as those found within a single building or
facility and so is ideal for multi-channel television broadcast systems. Multi-mode fiber may be used to
send video signals from room to room or floor to floor. The VelocityKVM allows for video and peripheral
transmission distances up to 350 meters using 50/125µm fiber, making it an ideal solution for in-house
applications.
Advanced Top Quality Video Transmission
Fiber Optic Cable has emerged as a logical solution for next-generation signal routing. The VelocityKVM
product family harnesses this capability and ensures long distance, error-free transmission with no frame
or bit dropping and complete immunity to interference. The end result is no degradation of the video
or peripheral signals whatsoever.
