Adder AdderLink X-serie X-DVI PRO KVM-extender - DVI-D, USB 2.0, audio, tot 50 m via Cat5e/6/7 (X-DVIPRO-IEC)

In a broadcast control room, an operator needs to manage a workstation located 50 metres away in a machine room, where heat and noise are kept away from the production floor. The Adder AdderLink X-DVI PRO makes this possible by extending DVI-D video, USB 2.0, and stereo audio over a single Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat7 cable with near-zero latency. This point-to-point KVM extender is ideal for professional AV, industrial, and IT environments where reliable, high-resolution remote access is required.

Why choose it

The X-DVI PRO delivers uncompressed, pixel-perfect video with no software to install. Its single-cable design simplifies installation, while USB 2.0 support allows connection of keyboards, mice, and other peripherals at the remote end. The near-zero latency ensures real-time interaction, making it suitable for tasks that demand immediate response, such as video editing or industrial control.

Ideal use cases

• Broadcast and post-production suites where workstations are kept in separate machine rooms
• Industrial automation and control rooms requiring remote operator access
• Medical imaging and healthcare environments needing reliable, high-resolution extension
• Digital signage and information displays in public areas
• Secure KVM extension for government or financial institutions

Good to know

The extender is compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat7 cables, but for best performance at maximum distance and resolution, use shielded Cat6 or Cat7. The power supply is included for both local and remote units. No drivers are needed, and the system works with Windows, macOS, Linux, and other operating systems.
