What customers say
Users highly value this KVM extender for its robust build and reliable performance in extending dual DVI signals and control over IP for demanding remote management. Its core strength lies in flawless, low latency video transmission once operational. However, the primary theme noted is the significant complexity involved in setup. Achieving peak performance requires considerable networking expertise, as initial configuration is far from plug and play. While the operational results are excellent for professional needs, the high cost means users expect perfection, making the steep learning curve a notable drawback for some. It is considered an essential, reliable workhorse for those prepared for the investment in time and capital.
