DVI-D KVM extender for remote control

The KVXLCF-100-R2 extends DVI-D video, USB 2.0, serial and audio signals over fibre. It suits operators who need to place a workstation up to 30 km from the display and peripherals. The transmitter includes a local DVI loopback port for on-site monitoring. EDID pass-through preserves the display handshake across the link.

Plug the transmitter and receiver into matching

Installation requires a fibre pair and compatible SFP transceivers, which are not included. Distance achieved depends on the SFP used, the fibre type and the fibre bandwidth. Mismatched modules or insufficient fibre bandwidth are the most common reasons the link fails to come up. No software drivers are needed for the USB HID or mass-storage channels.

Handles 1920x1200 at 60 Hz with transparent USB 2.0

The extender carries single-link DVI-D up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz and bi-directional analogue audio. USB 2.0 runs at high-speed rates for keyboards, mice and flash drives, while the RS-232 channel passes serial data transparently. Bandwidth-heavy USB devices such as webcams or video capture will exceed the available throughput.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the DVI-D link is running at 1920x1200 at 60 Hz after installation?

Check the remote monitor's on-screen display or graphics driver control panel; they will report the active resolution and refresh rate if the EDID pass-through is working correctly.

What cables and modules are included versus what I must source for the fiber link?

The kit ships with the local (TX) and remote (RX) units plus power supplies; you must purchase compatible SFP transceivers and the appropriate single-mode or multi-mode fiber patch cables separately.

Which SFP should I select to reach the full 30 km distance?

Choose a single-mode SFP rated for at least 30 km; multi-mode SFPs will only support shorter runs, so match the module to your fiber type and required reach.
