Digitus DVI Dongle for Modular KVM Consoles RJ45 to DVI Black 1080p

The DIGITUS DVI dongle for modular KVM consoles provides a remote connection over a single network cable to a target computer with a DVI graphics output. It converts an RJ45 network link into a DVI and USB connection, allowing control of a computer at distances up to 60 m in Full HD (1080p). The dongle is powered via the connected device's USB port and eliminates the need for dedicated KVM cables.

Advantages

This compact black dongle supports video modes up to 1080p and works independently of the operating system. It enables remote control of servers and hard-to-reach computer systems using a single Cat5/5e/6/6A (or higher) network cable with RJ45 connectors. The unit measures approximately 48 × 85 × 19 mm and weighs 0.12 kg, simplifying installation and reducing cabling costs compared with proprietary KVM cables.

Suitable for

• Connecting modular KVM consoles to computers with DVI outputs
• Remote management of servers in data centres or server rooms
• Controlling inaccessible workstations or embedded systems

How to use

Connect the dongle's RJ45 plug to the modular KVM console or network extension cable, and plug the DVI and USB connectors into the target computer's DVI and USB ports. Ensure the network cable is Cat5 or higher and do not exceed the 60 m maximum distance for reliable Full HD video transmission. The dongle receives power through the USB connection, so no external power supply is required.

Recommendations

For best performance, use shielded Cat6 or Cat6A cables for longer runs and verify connector terminations. Avoid using cable extensions or splitters that may degrade signal quality and confirm the target computer supports DVI output at 1080p.
