The CrystalView Pro fiber ™Advantage.
The CrystalView Pro fiber is the KVM extender of
choice for businesses that need to extend and
operate a computer, server, or KVM switch from a
great distance. The CrystalView Pro fiber makes this
possible by the use of standard fiber optic cable. You
can fully operate and control a computer or server
from as far away as 33,000 feet using SingleMode
(9-micron) fiber cable.
The CrystalView Pro fiber supports both DVI video as
well as analog VGA video. All combinations of DVI
and VGA video cards and monitors are supported.
The OSD features are accessed from the remote unit.
These features make it easy to adjust all the
necessary device parameters, color, brightness,
contrast, and saturation. Using fiber cable, you can
extend the distance between the transmitter and
receiver further than with conventional CAT5 cable.
In addition, fiber cable is unaffected by
electromagnetic interference, keeping your data safe
from interference from lightning and over voltage
transients.
The modular architecture makes the CrystalView Pro
fiber easily adapted to your system. PS/2 and USB
peripherals are supported. CAT5, Multi-Mode and
SingleMode fiber cabling, serial for Touchscreen and
stereo audio, parallel for printers, and 10BaseT
Ethernet are also supported as options.

CrystalView Pro fiber basics: The CrystalView Pro fiber consists
of a transmitter that connects to a PC, server, or KVM switch and a
receiver that connects to a keyboard, monitor, and mouse, or a KVM
switch. The transmitter and receiver units are connected together with
up to 33,000 feet of standard 9-micron optical fiber cable. (Singlemode)
The ideal way to apply the CrystalView Pro fiber is to connect the
transmitter to a Rose Electronics KVM switch. Expanding the switch
allows the receiver to access up to 1,000 computers or servers. The
Rose KVM switch can be connected between the transmitter and
computers, the KVM station and the receiver unit , or both.
Installation: Installing the CrystalView Pro fiber unit is as easy as
connecting the KVM station to the receiver, connecting the CPU t o the
transmitter, and connecting the transmitter to the receiver with fiber
cable.
Models: The CrystalView Pro fiber is available in different models with
PC, SUN, and USB support. The PC model is available in a dual version
allowing for a second KVM station next to the PC, providing operation
from the transmitter or the receiver unit. The computer video is
displayed on the local monitor (no conversions) and the remote monitor
(DVI to VGA or VGA to DVI conversion options). A rack version,
containing 10 transmitters or receivers is also available. The single fiber
models are application specific models that supply unidirectional video
and audio only (no keyboard/mouse)
Keyboard and mouse emulation The CrystalView Pro fiber
uses a microprocessor to emulate the keyboar d and mouse. This
means that the keyboard and mouse on the receiver do not have to be
connected for the PC to boot. Only the Transmitter must be connected
to the PC.
Rack Assembly The CrystalView Pro fiber can be ordered in a 10-
unit rack assembly. (PC model only)
