The
cables that you use when connecting your computer to our KVM switches
play a very important role in the quality of the communication between
the PCs and the KVM unit. Our custom made cables are designed to
provide the highest signal capacity along with the lowest signal loss.
What this means, to you as the consumer, is that you will receive the
highest quality video output even in the higher SuperVGA video modes.
An Average Cable:
Your average cable has one layer of shielding, a thin layer of mylar
foil that has been cut into a very long and narrow, approximately one
half of an inch wide, strip that is wound in a spiral pattern around
the wires, also called leads, in order to reduce the cost of the cable.
There are a few problems with this method of shielding a signal bearing
cables, first and foremost among them is the fact that this wrapped
foil method can "leak" RF (radio frequency) interference. Additionally
the manufacturers of your average cables use very small wires to carry
the information generally they use 28 or 26 AWG wires (in AWG the
higher the number for the gauge the smaller the actual size of the
wire) to carry their information, this is another concession to
reducing the manufacturing costs of the cables. Some of your other
"Premium" cables are made in the same way and with the same materials
as your average cable. The manufacturers put fancy connectors on the
cable then stamp the word "Premium" on the packaging and then charge
you more for the cable.
Altusen's Premium Cable:
At Altusen, we have invested millions of dollars into cable
manufacturing to ensure the highest quality cables at the lowest
possible cost. Our cables are double shielded, beneath the PVC outer
insulator you will find a copper braid RF shield, then beneath that you
will find the mylar foil shield. Unlike our competitors instead of
spiral wrapping the mylar foil shield, we take a single piece and
enclose the signal carrying wires in a one-piece envelope. All our
cables are manufactured with low resistance and low capacitance 24 AWG
wires to ensure the best video performance. Another important
difference between our cables and those of our competitors is that we
use coaxial wires to carry the red, green, and blue video signals. Our
competitors just throw the signal and its ground on two separate wires.
By using coaxial wires we reduce the possibilities of interference even
farther. Our video cable is also built in compliance with standard UL
2919. The cables we manufacture for our mouse and keyboard are also
built to our high quality requirements and are in compliance with the
UL 2464 standard.
Features
- All our cables are double shielded to prevent RF Interference even in the most electronically noisy environments.
- All our cables use low resistance and low capacitance 24 gauge wire to ensure peak performance.
- Our VGA cables comply with UL 2919 specifications.
- Our Keyboard and Mouse Cables comply with UL 2464 specifications.
