Description

Overview

The Black Box ACR1000A-R2 is a USB 2.0 KVM extender designed to transmit USB peripheral signals over an IP network. This device is critical for scenarios where you need to control a remote workstation or server from a separate location, allowing for a cleaner, more organized control room or security operations center. It enables the extension of USB devices like keyboards, mice, and touchscreens, ensuring full peripheral functionality at a distance. The ACR1000A-R2 is built for reliable operation in demanding environments.

Compatibility

This KVM extender is designed to work with standard USB 2.0 devices. It is compatible with a wide range of operating systems including Windows, macOS, and Linux. For KVM matrix applications, it is intended for use with compatible Black Box KVM-over-IP matrix systems. Specific compatibility with third-party KVM matrices or network infrastructure should be verified with the respective manufacturers.

Requires a standard IP network infrastructure (e.g., Ethernet switch) for signal transmission. Ensure the network is properly configured and has sufficient bandwidth to handle the USB data stream without latency. Power is supplied via a standard power adapter (included). Connect the local unit to the workstation's USB port and the remote unit to the USB peripherals.
