VelocityKVM Extenders
The VX640 is designed to work with all Thinklogical
®
products designed with MRTS technology
(e.g. Velocity Extenders). The VX640 and Velocity Extenders are a new, unique class of cost-effective
matrix switching and KVM extension designed for a variety of high-performance computing
environments. Comprised of a fiber-in, fiber-out matrix switch and fiber-optic KVM Transmitter and
Receiver Extenders, this complete system provides transparent and secure routing, switching and
extension of video and high-speed data peripherals to remote destinations with ease.
Connecting to the Receiver
The Velocity Receiver serves as the Destination (desktops, theaters, conference rooms, editing suites,
control consoles, video walls, etc). Depending on your configuration, your KMASS devices (audio,
keyboard, mouse, etc) are first connected to the Receiver using standard cables. Power can then be
supplied to the unit. The Receiver then connects to the VX640 Receiver ports using fiber (Multi-mode
fiber for distances up to 1000m; Single-mode fiber for distances beyond 1000m).
Connecting to the Transmitter
The Transmitter serves as the Source (computer and video entities). Depending on your configuration,
your local KMASS devices (keyboard, mouse, etc) are first connected. The video sources (e.g.
computers) are then connected followed by any local video devices. Power can then be supplied to the
unit. The Transmitter connects to the VX640 Transmitter ports using fiber (Multi-mode fiber for distances
up to 1000m; Single-mode fiber for distances beyond 1000m).
