Comments: Spent over 1 week with Belkin technical support trying to get this to work. All I can say is TERRIBLE support! Running this a total of 50 feet and could not get a get a clear/synchronized screen at 1024 x 768. After much trouble shooting, technical support finally told me to replace the cat5 cable with cat6! I said wait a minute - this is advertised at 300 feet with c...

This thing is genius!
Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Extremely easy setup. The computer side has hookups so you can hook up the local Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse as well as the remote. Very handy! Very well constructed.
Cons: The video quality on the remote side isn't that great, even on an LCD monitor. If you have an application with small on-screen characters, readability could...

It did work....eventually....
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It does work, but I had to buy a Cat6 cable (50'). Quite useful once you get it working.
Cons: Video would not work with any Cat5/Cat5e cable over 3' (and I tried a LOT of different cables!) The mouse and keyboard would only work at less than 10' using the same test cables.
Other Thoughts:

Works Great
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Running a 1280x1024 signal over 120ft of Cat5 / Cat5e. Not as clear as a local VGA connection, but very readable. No perceptible keyboard / mouse lag
Cons: You get what you pay for.
Other Thoughts: I tried a cheaper KVM extender, and the keyboard and mouse constantly lagged and locked up. Horrible, ...

Why Mess With Off Brands get the Origional
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Works perfect right out of the box using LCD monitor. Easy to make fine adjustments right on the remote for ghosting.
Cons: none
Other Thoughts: Off brands are just not worth the truble to maybe save a few bucks.

does the job
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Installs without a hitch. Have a flatpanel at 1280x1024 on a 50 foot cable, 75 hz refesh. Very slight quality degradation over direct connect, but fonts still have tack-sharp edges and there is no flicker.
special keys (wake, sleep, power) on the keyboard work as well.
the console ports are very useful when doing work directly at the computer, not having to go upstairs to the remot...

No Problems
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: works great at 1024 x 768 @ 70Hz over 50 feet (cat7 cable). Unit is small and comes with KVM cables.
Cons: Expensive. No audio
Other Thoughts: I highly recommend running this unit and the monitor on a UPS. The screen image seems to shimmer if I connect it straight to the AC without UPS (most li...

Works as claimed, no issues
Tech Level:
Ownership:
Comments: Works great, even at 1280x1024 resolution. One nice plus I did not expect was the ability to have both a local setup at the server in addition to the remote keyboard/mouse/monitor. Video is clean even when monitoring feeding video for security cameras.

Very Good Extender

Comments: For the money, a great KVM extender. Works with multiple resolutions and scan rates. Image looks perfect, no snow-vision like on other models. Works well with LCD monitors as well.
