1. Specifications

1.1 Interfaces

1.1.1 DVI-D Single Link

The video interface supports the DVI-D protocol. All signals that comply with DVI-D single-link standard can be transmitted. This includes, for example, monitor resolutions such as 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz, Full HD (1080p), or 2K HD (up to 2048 x 1152). Data rate is limited to 165 MPixel/s.

1.1.2 USB HID

Devices with USB HID interface support a maximum of two devices with

USB HID protocol. Each USB HID port provides a maximum current of 100 mA.

Keyboard

Compatible with most USB keyboards. Certain keyboards with additional functions may require custom firmware to operate. Keyboards with an integral USB Hub (Mac® keyboards, for example) are also supported.

Mouse

Compatible with most 2-button, 3-button, and scroll mice.

Other USB HID devices

The proprietary USB emulation also supports certain other USB HID devices, such as specific touchscreens, graphics tablets, bar-code scanners, or special keyboards. Support cannot be guaranteed, however, for every USB HID device.

NOTE: Only two USB HID devices are supported concurrently, such as keyboard and mouse or keyboard and touchscreen. A hub is allowed, but it does not increase the number of HID devices allowed.

To support other USB “non-HID” devices, such as scanners, Web cams or memory devices, choose our devices with transparent USB support.

1.1.3 RJ-45 (Network)

CATx device communication requires a 1000BASE-T connection. Pin the cable according to EIA/TIA-568-B (1000BASE-T) standard with RJ-45 connectors at both ends. All four wire pairs are used in both directions. The cabling is suitable for full-duplex operation. For the cable connection to a source (computer, CPU), use a cross-pinned network cable.
