CrystalView™ Pro fiber Rack Advantage
The CrystalView Pro fiber rack is the KVM extender of
choice for businesses that need to extend and operate
several computers, servers, or KVM switches from a
great distance. The CrystalView Pro fiber rack makes
this possible by the use of standard fiber optic cable.
You can fully operate and control 10 computers or
servers from as far away as 33,000 feet using 9-micron
fiber cable.
The CrystalView Pro fiber rack 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 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, SUN, and
USB peripherals are supported. CAT5, Multimode and
Singlemode fiber cabling, serial for Touchscreens and
other supported serial devices, stereo audio, parallel for
printers, and 10BaseT Ethernet are also supported as
options.
Up to 10 transmitters or receivers can be
installed. Each module is totally
independent giving you the flexibility needed
to interface to PCs, serial devices, Sun
systems, Touchscreens, and more from a
central location.

Typical Application
TRANSMITTERS
RECEIVERS
UP TO 33,000’
Access computers up to 6 miles away over fiber optic cable
CrystalView Pro fiber basics
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.
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.
The CrystalView Pro fiber consists
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’s, providing
operation from the transmitter or the receiver unit.
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 Rack is designed to
easily mount in a standard 19” rack.
