Generally, distances closer to the lower range will provide excellent video quality in most
environments. Distances towards the upper end of the range should show acceptable quality, but
in some environments degradation of the video signal may start to appear.
The maximum supported distance is a function of many factors including the type/quality of
CAT5 cable, server type, and server manufacturer, the video driver and monitor,
environmental conditions and user expectations.
The KX416 and KX432 models provided enhanced video signal quality at longer distances
across the three types of servers tested. For maximum distance, utilize one of the KX4
models.
The use of Paragon CIMs will not increase the distance between the KX and the target server.
Due to the multiplicity of server manufacturers and types, OS versions, video drivers, etc. and
the subjective nature of video quality, Raritan cannot guarantee performance across all
distances in all environments.
