Computer Extension
: the CAT5-5000/CAT5-5500
A Fundamental Dual-Display Extension Solution
Straightforward Way to Extend a Simple Dual-Display Workstation
The CAT5-5000 simply and efficiently extends two analog monitors,
a USB-based keyboard/mouse and audio signals hundreds of feet from
the computer using CAT5 cables. It comes in two versions: the CAT5-5000
sends video, audio and control signals up to 330-feet from the computer;
the CAT5-5500 sends video, audio and control signals even further,
up to 450-feet from the computer. The CAT5•5000 uses two CAT5
cables to transmit the signals and the CAT5•5500 uses three
CAT 5 cables. The CAT5•5500 has additional trim pods controls
for brightness and focus for enhanced control of your video quality.
Both are designed for those who prefer to operate a dual-display
computer workstation in a stable, quiet and secure location far
away from the computer.
Compatibility
Both versions work with all CRT and LCD computer monitors, USB
keyboards/mice and audio devices (Mac or PC).
How it Works
Both versions use a sender and receiver methodology to transmit
signals from the computer to the workstation. The sender unit connects
to the computer using the cables provided. The receiver unit connects
to the two monitors, USB keyboard/mouse and audio devices up to
330-feet (CAT5-5000) or up to 450-feet (CAT5-5500) from the computer.
Two CAT5 extension cables, sold separately, connect the sender to
the receiver and thus the computer to the extended workstation.
Both the sender and the receiver units must be connected to a power
supply. When fully powered and operational, the units extend all
signals efficiently and reliably.

Features:
• Saves space—no need to make room for large or small
CPUs at the extended location when both the CAT5-5000 and the CAT5-5500
provide convenient and flexible ways to isolate the CPU and extend
a dual-display workstation
• Increased productivity—a remote computer workstation
allows computer data to be input and accessed on-site in real-time
• Improved aesthetics—both the CAT5-5000 and the CAT5-5500
eliminate computer noise where you work
• Flexible functionality—both models maintain high resolution
video, support two types of analog monitors (CRT and LCD), DDC control
signals, USB and audio
• High Performance Technology—both models use Extreme
USB technology for USB extension, ensuring control signals operate
optimally
• Multimedia Enabled—audio is extended for multimedia
applications
• Ease of use—both models install in seconds and are
rack-mountable
