ATEN USB Dual View KVM Extender with Deskew - TAA Compliant

Experience seamless, secure, and scalable remote control of your computer systems with the ATEN USB Dual View KVM Extender. Built to empower data centers, control rooms, and industrial environments, this solution delivers reliable access to a host computer from a distant, dual-monitor console. With a remote reach up to 300 meters, dual-display support, and advanced deskew synchronization, you can manage critical servers and workstations from a convenient location without sacrificing performance or reliability. The TAA-compliant design aligns with procurement standards for U.S. and global agencies, making it an ideal choice for institutions that require compliant hardware without compromising on capability. Whether you’re overseeing multi-server racks, industrial automation panels, or imaging workstations, this ATEN extender provides a robust, user-friendly pathway to centralized control and optimized workflows.

• Dual-view video and extended reach: The extender supports simultaneous output to two displays, enabling analysts, operators, or technicians to monitor multiple data streams side-by-side while managing a distant host system. This capability enhances situational awareness, accelerates decision-making, and reduces the need for physically moving between workstations.
• Remote access up to 300 meters: Designed for expansive layouts, the system lets you place the host computer in a secure or remote location and still exercise full keyboard, video, and mouse control from a dual-view console. This optimizes space, improves safety, and minimizes disruption in high-traffic or restricted environments.
• Deskew technology for synchronized displays: The built-in deskew feature corrects timing differences between the two video paths, ensuring that both monitors stay in perfect sync and deliver crisp, artifact-free images. Perfect for tasks that require precise alignment across multiple screens, such as monitoring dashboards and control interfaces.
• USB-based KVM with reliable performance: The solution carries keyboard, video, and mouse signals over a unified connection, delivering responsive control with minimal latency. This makes rapid command input and real-time interaction consistent, even over long cable runs.
• TAA-compliant and enterprise-ready: The hardware adheres to Trade Agreements Act requirements, meeting procurement standards for government and corporate deployments while maintaining high reliability and compatibility with existing IT ecosystems.

How to Install ATEN USB Dual View KVM Extender

Follow these practical steps to deploy the ATEN USB Dual View KVM Extender quickly and with confidence. The setup is designed to be straightforward for IT staff and fits into standard rack or desk installations. Ensure you have the appropriate cables and power supplies as recommended by ATEN for your configuration.

• Unbox and verify all components: host unit, remote console unit, power adapters, mounting hardware, and the required cabling for your distance (as specified by the installation guide).
• Place the host unit near the computer server or workstation you intend to control. Position the remote console at the dual-view workstation or control desk where you want the operator to work from.
• Connect the host computer to the KVM extender transmitter and connect the remote console receiver to the dual-monitor setup. Use the appropriate CATx or fiber link specified by ATEN for the chosen distance, ensuring secure and shielded cabling where possible.
• Attach power supplies to both the transmitter and receiver units and power them on. Allow the devices to boot and initialize, then verify that the remote console displays the host desktop on both screens.
• Configure display settings and dual-view preferences. Adjust the host graphics settings to support two displays, set recommended resolutions, and ensure the deskew function is active so both monitors stay synchronized during operation.
• Test operation thoroughly: use the keyboard and mouse to interact with the host system from the remote console, switch between local and remote control modes, and confirm PC Wake-Up functionality and hotkey responsiveness.

Frequently asked questions

• Q: What environments benefit most from the ATEN USB Dual View KVM Extender?

  A: Environments that require centralized control of distant servers, industrial control panels, or multi-display monitoring stations often benefit the most. This includes data centers, control rooms, labs, and facilities with restricted or difficult-to-access hardware layouts.

• Q: How does the Deskew feature improve dual-monitor usage?

  A: Deskew aligns the timing of video signals sent to two displays, minimizing synchronization issues, flicker, or image lag. This is especially helpful for real-time monitoring dashboards, mapped data, and activities that rely on precise dual-screen coordination.

• Q: How far can I extend the connection?

  A: The system supports remote operation up to 300 meters, depending on the cabling quality and environment. Always use recommended cabling and consider routing, interference, and shielded options for optimal performance.

• Q: Is this KVM extender suitable for government procurement?

  A: Yes. The device is TAA-compliant, which aligns with procurement requirements for government and other regulated environments, facilitating adoption in formal purchasing processes.

• Q: Can I upgrade or expand this setup in the future?

  A: ATEN extenders are designed to be scalable. You can add additional consoles or expand to larger deployments by following the product’s compatibility guidelines and using recommended network or cabling substrates to maintain performance.
