Slow switching speed using KVM switcher on Windows 7
Avoid the 'Refresh Rate Trap' by ensuring your KVM supports the full bandwidth of your 240Hz+ monitor.

US Fiber Optic KVM Architecture Solution
Fibersystem AB has developed a fiber optic solution for KVM extension to meet the requirements for remote CPU deployment over long distances – up to 80 kilometers. It is the world's first HDBaseT compliant implementation of HDMI transmission over fiber. Thinklogical manufactures mid-to-large scale fiber-optic KVM matrix switches that are IA-accredited to manage multiple classifications of information through a single switch, simplifying authorized information access and improving operations center workflows. Matrox KVM extenders can extend signals—such as keyboard, mouse, audio, video, RS232, and USB—over fiber, copper, LAN, or private WAN. All Rextron KVM Over Fiber Extenders are mostly applied in high-EMI environments where the EMI-Immune nature of the optic fiber system is advantageous. Thanks to dynamic ports of KVM Matrix switch, any PHINX ports can be automatically detected as inputs for the computers, or outputs for the user ports, as soon as the KVM over Fiber. With unmatched stability against electromagnetic interference, this solution is perfect for large-scale installations in environments.
