NTI EXTENDEX Extenders
INTRODUCTION
The XTENDEX Series CAT5 Extender (XTENDEX) is designed to enable one CPU to be controlled by two users, one local and
one remote. The remote user can be located as much as 300 feet away from a PS/2 CPU via Category 5 unshielded twistedpair cable. The local user will be located near the CPU.
The XTENDEX Series Extender is extremely simple to install and has been thoroughly tested to insure reliable performance.
Through the use of Category 5 cable it is possible to economically increase the flexibility of a computer system. Here are some of
the features and ways this can benefit any workplace:
• Allows the placement of computer peripherals (monitor, keyboard, and mouse) in a location where
only these parts are needed without having the CPU there too, taking up valuable space
• Allows a PS/2 CPU to be accessed b y both a local and remote user (up to 300 feet away)
• Compatible with VGA and XGA systems
• Provides crisp and cle ar resolu tion up to 1280 x 1024 @ 300 feet (see page 11 for more details)
• Compatible with all NTI switches and splitters, enabling the joining of products to create a system that
satisfies all networking needs
• Video quality, for varying lengths of cable, is manually adjustable ( see page 10) providing optimum image
quality
• Audio frequency response is 20Hz to 20Khz, + 1dB (models with audio support only)
• Digital transmission of audio signals reduces any loss in quality (models with audio support onl y)
This manual covers each of the XTENDEX Series CAT5-300 Extender models offered. Some feat ures described in this manual
