Introduction
Thank you for choosing the AdderView CATx 1000 from Adder Technology. This compact unit has been created to allow a single operator to take full control of many computer systems.
Like the other models within the highly successful AdderView CATx family, this unit takes full advantage of category 5, 5e or 6 structured cabling to provide flexible installation and configuration. Every connected computer can be up to 10m (32 feet) from the AdderView CATx 1000, linked by a standard CATx cable and the ingenious CAM (Computer Access Module).
The AdderView CATx 1000 is available in two sizes, directly supporting eight or sixteen computers respectively. These numbers can be increased at any time thanks to the ability to connect other AdderView CATx 1000 units in cascade to provide a much larger network of controlled computers. Both models provide full enterprise level security to restrict access to authorised personnel.
Optional power switch control allows you to remotely perform a hard reset on any host system, no matter how badly it has locked up.
The user console can be either connected directly to the Adderview CATx 1000 unit or placed up to 300m (980 feet) away using either Adder X100 or X200 extenders and, once again, standard CATx cabling. In addition to providing the usual keyboard, video and mouse signals, the AdderView CATx 1000 also provides audio output for full feedback where necessary.
Remote user
A remote user can be linked, via an Adder X100 or X200 extender and category 5, 5e or 6 cabling, to a maximum distance of 300m (980 ft).

Dual users
When both a local and a remote user are connected, both consoles will see the same output, however, only one will be able to take control at any one time. Control is automatically relinquished by the current user two seconds after the last input action, whereupon either user can gain control. The control status is signified by the keyboard indicators at each console.
Many computers
AdderView CATx 1000 units can directly support either 8 or 16 computer systems. Multiple AdderView CATx 1000 units can also be cascaded to support a maximum of 256 computers.
Each system is linked using a Computer Access Module (CAM) and category 5, 5e or 6 cabling to a maximum distance of 10m
(32 ft) from the AdderView CATx 1000 unit.
