Safety information

For use in dry, oil free indoor environments only.

Do not use to link between buildings.

Not suitable for use in hazardous or explosive environments or next to highly flammable materials.

Ensure that all twisted pair interconnect cables are installed in compliance with all applicable wiring regulations.

Do not connect the CATx link interface (RJ45 style connector) to any other equipment, particularly network or telecommunications equipment.

Where possible, avoid laying the twisted pair link cable(s) alongside power cables.

Do not attempt to service the module yourself.

The modules do not provide ground isolation and should not be used for any applications that require ground isolation or galvanic isolation.

For correct operation, the transmitter and receiver modules must have ground connections. At the computer end, this is achieved by ensuring that the computer that the module is connected to has a ground connection. At the audio/visual device end, this can be achieved by ensuring that the power supply is connected to a grounded power outlet. Alternatively, a ground connection will be made via the monitor, if the monitor is itself grounded.

CATX Dual Access Module

Quick Start (CATX-USBA-DA and CATX-USB-DA)

The two variants of the CATX Dual Access Module are highly compact devices that allow you to share a single computer between two sets of peripheral devices. The CATX-USB-DA variant is not fitted with audio or serial ports but is otherwise identical to the CATX-USBA-DA model.

The module connects to various ports on your computer. You then connect it via CAT 5, 5e or 6 cabling to AdderView CATx KVM switches and/or Adder extender receivers (either AdderLink X2 Silver or X200), each of which can be located up to 300 metres from the module. Your video displays, keyboard, mice and speakers are linked to the remote devices.

The CATX Dual Access Module uses a USB port to derive its power from the host computer, dispensing with the need for a separate power supply and thus simplifying installation.
