Introduction
AdderLink XD522 is a high performance KVM (Keyboard,
Video, Mouse) extender that enables you to locate your
critical computing hardware in a secure and temperature
controlled environment away from the user work station
whilst maintaining the same user desktop experience.
Using either one or two CATx cable links you can achieve
separation distances of up to 150 meters/492 feet between
the AdderLink XD522 transmitter and receiver units. At
such distances the units can transfer high resolution video
of up to 1080p quality, USB 2.0 (low/full and Hi-Speed),
digital and analog audio plus RS232 serial.
The units actively monitor the link quality and at link
distances of less than 100 meters/328 feet, High Rate
Mode* becomes possible; providing a second video port
and more than twice the video bandwidth capability.
In High Rate Mode, there is more than enough video
bandwidth to support a single very high resolution 2560 x
1600 display or two 1920 x 1200 displays (@ 60Hz refresh).
