Emerald® 4K KVM-over-IP Extender Transmitter - DisplayPort, Single-Head, V-USB 2.0, Audio

The Emerald® 4K KVM-over-IP Extender Transmitter is a state-of-the-art solution engineered for professionals and enterprises that demand pristine 4K video quality, seamless device connectivity, and reliable control across distributed computing environments. This transmitter works in concert with a complementary Emerald Receiver to extend DisplayPort video, USB peripheral access, and multichannel audio over IP networks. Built to endure the rigors of data centers, control rooms, and remote office deployments, it combines uncompromising performance with streamlined management, so IT teams can centralize KVM access without compromising security, latency, or usability.

  • Stunning 4K video performance – Enjoy DisplayPort-delivered video up to 4K (3840x2160) at 60 Hz with crisp 4:4:4 color fidelity, enabling high-detail imaging for design, engineering, medical visualization, financial dashboards, and other demanding workloads. The transmitter supports modern DisplayPort standards, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of source devices while preserving native color and sharpness across the network.
  • KVM over IP for remote operation – Extend keyboard, video, and mouse control over standard IP networks. The Emerald Extender Transmitter is designed to pair with a Receiver over LAN, enabling remote workstations, control rooms, and distributed facilities to access the host system as if the user were physically connected, with minimal setup and centralized management.
  • V-USB 2.0 peripheral connectivity – The transmitter supports USB 2.0 data channels that carry keyboard, mouse, and select USB peripherals with reliable HID compatibility. This enables a true, responsive interaction with the host PC or workstation from a remote location, enhancing productivity and reducing the need for onsite IT intervention.
  • Integrated audio extension – Pass through multi-channel audio as part of the KVM extension, allowing you to route microphone input and line-level audio to the remote user. Whether for videoconferencing, media editing, or critical diagnostics, the system preserves synchronized audio alongside high-quality video.
  • Enterprise-ready reliability and network flexibility – Built to support professional deployments, the transmitter delivers robust performance in data centers and busy work environments. It accommodates various network topologies, from direct point-to-point connections to switched LAN ecosystems, and is designed for long-term reliability with straightforward deployment and ongoing management through standard IT tools.

  • Power and environment – AC-powered design suitable for typical data center and office environments. The unit employs efficient cooling and is built to operate reliably within standard temperature and humidity ranges found in professional settings.
  • Management and security – Integrates with enterprise management workflows and monitoring tools, allowing administrators to assign access rights, monitor link status, and manage IP-based connections securely within existing IT infrastructure.

How to Install Emerald® 4K KVM-over-IP Extender Transmitter

  • Power down the host system and the remote workstation before connecting the transmitter and receiver.
  • Connect the host computer’s DisplayPort output to the transmitter’s DisplayPort input. This establishes the primary video path that will be extended over the network.
  • Attach USB 2.0 peripherals (keyboard, mouse, and any supported USB devices) to the transmitter or host-facing USB ports as appropriate for your deployment, following the manufacturer’s guidance for device placement.
  • Run a network cable (CAT6 or better) from the transmitter to the network switch or directly to the Emerald Receiver. Ensure both units are on the same IP network or routed networks that allow KVM traffic to pass between them.
  • Connect the Emerald Receiver at or near the remote workstation location. Then connect the remote DisplayPort monitor to the receiver’s DisplayPort output and attach USB devices (keyboard/mouse) to the Receiver’s USB ports so the user can control the host system remotely.
  • Power on the transmitter and receiver. Use the status indicators to verify a solid link, then access the management interface (via a web browser or the included management software) to complete initial configuration, address assignment, and pairing between the transmitter and receiver. Validate the 4K video path and KVM responsiveness from the remote site.
  • Test typical workflows across your network: boot sequences, application launches, input device responsiveness, audio playback, and any peripheral passthrough. Fine-tune settings for latency, color, and display scaling as needed, ensuring an optimal balance between image quality and performance for your environment.
  • Document the deployment with IP addresses, device names, and access credentials so IT teams can monitor and maintain the system. Establish backup procedures and recovery steps in case of link disruptions or hardware maintenance windows.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the Emerald® 4K KVM-over-IP Extender Transmitter used for? It enables high-resolution remote control of a host computer by extending DisplayPort video, USB peripherals, and audio over IP networks, allowing operators to work from distant locations with near-zero perceptible latency and seamless input responsiveness.
  • Can I use a single transmitter with a Receiver to access my host from multiple remote locations? Yes. The system is designed to work in scalable KVM over IP deployments, connecting a single transmitter to one or more receivers over IP networks. You can expand coverage to multiple remote workstations by adding receivers, depending on your network architecture and licensing.
  • Does the device support 4K at 60 Hz? Yes. The DisplayPort path supports 4K resolution at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 color, ensuring sharp imagery and accurate color reproduction for professional applications that require precise visuals.
  • What peripherals are supported via USB 2.0? Keyboard and mouse are the primary HID peripherals supported, with additional USB 2.0 devices that are compatible with HID or widely supported by the host system. USB storage devices may be recognized if the host operating system supports them over the KVM path.
  • Do I need specialized software to manage Emerald® extenders? The setup includes a management interface, typically accessible via a web browser or management software provided by the vendor. This interface lets you configure network settings, pair transmitters with receivers, monitor link health, and manage access permissions. While not always required, the management tools simplify deployments in large environments.
  • What environments is the Emerald Extender best suited for? It is ideal for data centers, control rooms, broadcast/production facilities, corporate campuses, and distributed offices where central IT teams need reliable, high-quality KVM access across rooms and buildings without compromising performance.
