KM0216 / KM0432 User Manual

Topology Considerations

The use of RJ-45 port connectors, combined with Auto Signal Compensation (ASC), allow signals to travel up to 500 feet (150 meters) and still maintain reliability and high video resolution. This allows the KM0216 / KM0432 installation to take advantage of the internal Cat 5e and Cat 6 wiring built in to most modern commercial buildings.

Note: Although the KM0216 / KM0432 supports legacy Cat 5 wiring, the performance and video quality may degrade over longer distances.

Since the data signals are not transmitted in packets, the transmission cannot go through network hubs or switches. Passive components such as patch panels, keystone jacks, patch cables, etc. can be used to channel the traffic, instead.
