The Vertiv Avocent HMX 5000/6000 series is a secure, high performance, IP-based KVM extender solution.
Using standard IP infrastructure, it is possible to route any user station to any computer attached to the network without any compromises to video quality or control. This enables you to locate your critical computing hardware in a secure and temperature controlled environment away from the user workstation while maintaining a pixel-perfect desktop experience.

benefits
Truely unlimited extension distances
Extension distance is not limited to a single 100 meter cable length – If you need to extend further, simply add a 1GbE network switch to achieve even greater distances. The units are also fitted with SFP cages to accept fiber optic transceivers which enable much greater extension distances.
Single CATx cable or fiber for greater flexibility
This significant asset is what gives you the freedom to use the full variety of cable links that you typically find within an average structured cabling system. The result is that you can achieve reliable links, regardless of whether the cables are CAT5e, CAT6 or CAT7
Real time control with perfect digital video
Using a spatially-lossless encoding system, with 1:1 pixel mapping. The digital video you receive is the same as the digital video leaving the remote computer.
Security
For applications where security is of high importance, the system has the ability to disable the use of non-HID devices, meaning there is no need to physically block USB ports to prevent the use of mass storage devices.
