Vertiv HMX6150T-HDMI Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Vertiv HMX6150T-HDMI is a zero-U KVM extender designed to provide remote access to computers and workstations. It extends HDMI video, USB 2.0 peripheral signals, and audio over a single CATx cable up to 100 meters. This is critical for environments where the computing hardware must be secured in a data center or server room, but users require direct, high-fidelity control from an office or control room. The zero-U form factor allows it to be mounted without consuming rack space, ideal for high-density deployments.
