ServSwitch Universal Extender

2. Overview

2.1 Introduction

The ServSwitch Universal Extender (ACU8000A) extends dual-head PC video, stereo audio

(amplified or line level), RS-232, and up to three USB ports up to 400 feet away on CAT5e or

CAT6 cables. The ACU8000A includes a rack mountable sender unit plus a wall mountable

receiver (and I/O hood cover), packaged together. The Receiver (Remote) Unit is a peripheral

extender with two direct USB ports (DR1 and DR2). The Sender (Local) Unit is a peripheral

extender with two direct USB ports (DR1 and DR2).

A block diagram of the system is shown in Appendix A

2.2 Features

•Eliminates the need for a utility box (The receiver includes an I/O hood cover that goes over all the connectors

with tie-down provisions for a strain relief.)

•Does not require external power supply. It has a built-in supply with a standard 110~240 VAC IEC320 jack.

•2 “Direct” USB ports (DR1 and DR2)

•Has a DB15 connector for audio input and loop output at the sender as well as a DB15 output at the receiver.

The units are perfect for PCs that have amplified audio output on a DB15 male connector (no special cables

are needed other than the included DB15 M/F cable)

•Receiver features a DB15 male output with amplified output to drive passive speakers directly, as well as a

line-level 3.5-mm jack for powered speakers

•Provides built-in video skew correction on both video channels. This corrects the lack of RGB convergence

when long Cat6 cables are used. Eliminates the need to use special low-skew UTP cables for long runs.

•Built-in Test pattern generator for long cable compensation (High Frequency Gain) and Skew correction.

•Features a built-in extended display ID (EDID), which enables the PC to detect LCD’s even if none is

connected at the sender or the receiver.

•Supports Local USB outputs at the sender to connect the local keyboard and mouse.

•Offers 4 general-purpose USB ports at the remote unit plus two direct USB ports

•Supports hot-unplug and hot-plug of USB Peripherals (General Purpose USB ports, as well as DR1 and DR2)

2.3 What’s included

Your ACU8000A package should contain the following items. If anything is missing or

damaged, contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500 or [email protected].

VGA A IN: Along with VGA B IN, these are the PC’s

video input signals (VGA through UXGA) with local loop

outputs at the sender. They are extended to a remote

unit through RJ-45 Port A and Port B. High-frequency

compensation is incorporated at the receiver to provide

a brilliant image for these video signals.

TABLE 2-2

Number Component Description

6 DB15 connector

Audio input: Audio: DB15 connector (with 2 rows of

pins) for audio input and a loop output at the sender.

The audio is extended to a remote receiver that has

both line as well as powered outputs (for driving

passive speakers). The DB15 audio I/O not only allows

Interface with line-level 3.5-mm mini stereo audio

sources (using adapter cable available from Black Box),

it also provides a more reliable and secure means for

the audio connection with its gold-plated D-Sub

connector with jack screws. The audio input level

supports a wide range of standards; it can be amplified

(for driving passive speakers), +4dBu (Pro-Audio), or -

10dBv (consumer line-level).

7 DB9 connector RS-232 input

8 USB Type B connector

DR 1 input: Along with DR2, these are two “Direct”

extension USB ports. The corresponding USB port on

the PC is directly extended to a remote receiver with no

hubs or other functions in the path. The PC’s USB port

that is extended via DR1 or DR2 behaves exactly as if it

were connected directly to the target device at the

remote. These “Direct” USB port extensions are perfect

for high-data-rate devices, such as video cameras,

storage media, printers, and chart recorders. They do

not support low-speed “human interface” devices, such

as keyboards or mice. Having a dedicated path from

the target device to the PC ensures full channel

bandwidth availability in the interface (as opposed to

several devices sharing one port on the PC via a hub).

9 USB Type B connector

USB STD input: This is a general-purpose USB port,

which goes through a hub in the sender and provides

two USB local output ports. It is also extended to the

remote receiver, where another hub provides the user

with four USB ports. These general-purpose USB ports

are labeled as KBRD 1, MOUSE 2, AUX 3, and AUX 4.

They support any type of low-speed or high-speed USB

devices. AUX 3 and AUX 4 are typically used for touch

screen displays, but support all other USB devices as

well.
