How to install Gefen DVI KVM over IP

  • Plan your topology by mapping sources (DVI-equipped computers or devices) to displays and determining where you will place transmitters and receivers. Confirm that the network path between all endpoints supports Gigabit Ethernet with stable connectivity.
  • Connect the source device to the Gefen transmitter via a DVI cable, and connect the Gefen receiver to the target display via DVI. Attach any required USB keyboards, mice, or peripherals at the remote workstation end as dictated by your workflow.
  • Link the transmitter and receiver to the same LAN, ensuring IP addressing is configured (DHCP or static as your IT policy requires). Validate that both ends can communicate across the network to establish control channels.
  • Power up the transmitter and receiver and verify status indicators. Look for solid link lights and healthy status indicators that confirm a working connection and active pairing between endpoints.
  • Access the Gefen management interface from a connected workstation to pair the transmitter with the receiver, and configure essential settings such as display resolution, USB device mapping, and any security preferences. Save the configuration to ensure consistent operation across power cycles.
  • Test the complete workflow by moving the cursor, transmitting keystrokes, and confirming that video output aligns with the display, with responsive input and stable performance. If needed, fine-tune latency settings, color depth, or resolution to suit your specific environment.
