The CE980 is a USB DisplayPort/HDMI Optical KVM Extender that extends KVM signals over fiber-optic transmission up to 300 meters, delivering True 4K, HDCP 2.3-compliant video quality. It features DisplayPort and HDMI connectivity via a combo connector, simplifying installation with selectable video output at both local and remote consoles. In addition to exceptional video clarity, it supports RS-232, USB 2.0 peripherals, and embedded DisplayPort/HDMI digital audio, including Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, and DTS-HD Master Audio, enabling versatile signal extension over a single fiber optic connection. The CE980 is ideal for critical control environments such as healthcare, post production, manufacturing, and more.
2-in-1 DisplayPort/HDMI Combo ConnectorFeaturing a combo connector, the CE980 supports connection to either a DisplayPort or HDMI display for both local and remote KVM installations. This versatile design supports flexible display configurations at each end, allowing mixed or matched output types between the local and remote consoles.
Pristine True 4K Clarity with HDR10Experience unparalleled True 4K clarity (3840 x 2160 and 4096 x 2160 @60 Hz, 4:4:4) and HDR10 support, delivering optimal image accuracy, enhanced contrast, and rich colors for razor-sharp video content.
Reliable Fiber Optic KVM Extension over Long DistancesDeploying the CE980 enables long-distance KVM extension of up to 300 meters via a fiber optic connection, ensuring stable, interference-free transmission with inherent EMI resistance for reliable performance.
Dual Console Access with Privileged ControlThe CE980 enables KVM access to a computer from both local and remote consoles, facilitating efficient operational collaboration. Using the Auto/Local or Auto/Remote pushbutton, you can toggle between Auto mode (access from both consoles) and Local/Remote mode (exclusive access from either local or remote console), determining which console has privileged control over the computer.
ApplicationsDesigned for critical control environments such as healthcare, post production, and manufacturing, the CE980 delivers stable long-distance KVM signal transmission and pristine video quality.
