Digitus DS-55202 HDMI KVM IP Extender Set Transmitter and Receiver Wired Maximum Transfer Distance 80 m HDMI USB Ports

The Digitus DS-55202 HDMI KVM IP Extender Set Transmitter and Receiver is an efficient solution designed to transmit high-definition video, audio, and control signals over extended distances using wired network cables. Consisting of a dedicated transmitter unit and a receiver unit, this hardware set utilizes standard network infrastructure to bridge the gap between source devices and displays. It provides reliable performance for professional audio-visual installations, digital signage, and remote workstation control without compromising signal integrity.

Advantages

This extender set offers substantial flexibility in system design by allowing high-definition signals to travel far beyond standard cable limits. By leveraging standard network cabling such as CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6, installations become more adaptable to existing building layouts. The inclusion of USB ports on the receiver unit enables seamless keyboard and mouse control at the remote display location, effectively bridging the distance between the user and the host computer. Furthermore, the robust aluminum housing ensures durability in demanding environments.

Suitable for

• Extending HDMI video and audio signals across large rooms or buildings
• Remote management of computers and servers via USB keyboards and mice
• Professional AV setups in commercial, industrial, and public spaces
• Security and surveillance monitoring stations requiring remote control

When it may not be suitable

This device may not be suitable for applications requiring ultra-high-definition resolutions beyond 1080p, as the maximum supported resolution is 1920 x 1080 pixels at 60 Hz. Additionally, environments that require zero latency for gaming or real-time professional video editing might be affected by the inherent video latency of approximately 70 milliseconds.

Key specifications

• Wired transmitter and receiver set
• Maximum transfer distance up to 120 meters using CAT6 cables
• Supports video resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 pixels at 60 Hz
• Equipped with HDMI video ports and USB keyboard and mouse ports
• Compatible with CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6, and CAT7 network cables
• Supports 802.3 Ethernet 10/100/100 Mbps LAN standards
• Video bandwidth under 70 Mbps with MJPEG compression
• Low power consumption under 3.5 watts per unit
• Durable black aluminum housing

How to use

To set up the system, connect the transmitter unit to your video source using an HDMI cable and attach the local USB port if necessary. Connect the receiver unit to your display using an HDMI cable and plug your keyboard and mouse into the designated USB ports on the receiver. Link the transmitter and receiver together using a compatible network cable either directly or through your local network infrastructure, then connect the included power adapters to both units to begin transmission.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the length and category of the network cables available in your installation environment
• Confirm that your display requirements do not exceed the 1080p maximum resolution limit
• Check whether a direct point-to-point connection or an existing network switch infrastructure will be used

Usage recommendations

Ensure that the network cabling adheres to standard wiring specifications and keep the units away from excessive moisture or extreme temperatures outside the specified operating range for optimal longevity and performance.
