The setup is straightforward, designed for plug-and-play operation across all major operating systems, and engineered for reliability in busy office environments, server rooms, control centers, and digital signage deployments.

  • Pristine, latency-free video — No compression and no introduced delay means you see the same fast, accurate DVI-D output as if the computer were directly connected. This makes it ideal for professional graphics, CAD work, financial trading, and mission-critical monitoring where timing matters.
  • USB 2.0 extension for keyboards and mice — Extend a full USB 2.0 signal for reliable keyboard and mouse operation, with broad compatibility across Windows, macOS, Linux, and other major operating systems. The device supports USB HID peripherals and requires no complex drivers for typical peripherals.
  • Single-CATx installation — A single solid-core CAT5e/CAT6 (or better) cable carries both video and USB signals, simplifying deployment and reducing cable clutter. For best performance, a solid-core CAT6 is recommended.
  • Cross-platform and plug-and-play — Works with all major operating systems without special software or drivers. It’s engineered for straightforward installation in mixed environments, so IT teams can deploy quickly and confidently.

How to Install Black Box KVM Extender

Follow these straightforward steps to deploy your KVM extender and begin using the extended desktop immediately. The process is designed to be quick, simple, and compatible with a wide range of workstation setups.

  • Step 1: Connect the transmitter to the host computer. Attach the DVI-D video output from the computer to the transmitter’s video input and connect the keyboard and mouse USB devices to the transmitter’s USB ports.
  • Step 2: Connect the receiver to the display. Run a DVI-D cable from the receiver’s video output to the monitor, and attach the keyboard and mouse USB devices to the receiver if you want to share input devices at the remote station.
  • Step 3: Run a single CATx cable between the transmitter and receiver. Use a high-quality CAT6 (solid-core preferred) for best results, ensuring both ends are securely terminated and seated in their connectors.
  • Step 4: Provide power. Connect the external power adapters to the transmitter and, if required by your model, the receiver as well. Ensure power is stable and within the specified voltages to prevent signal dropouts.
  • Step 5: Power on and test. Turn on the host computer and the remote monitor. The system should auto-negotiate video resolution and USB peripherals. If the display or input devices do not respond, verify cabling, power connections, and that the CATx link is intact.

Pro tips for optimal performance: Use a high-quality CAT6 cable with good shielding to reduce potential interference in environments with heavy electrical noise. Keep the CATx run as direct as possible, avoiding unnecessary bends or kinks, and maintain orderly cable management to support reliable long-term operation. This extender is designed for simple deployment, but ensuring clean cabling and proper power delivery will maximize image stability and peripheral responsiveness.

User friendly, Pet Hair Approved, Quite Powerful Robot Vacuum
Color: White
We prviously had an Eureka E10 vacuum and mop robot for 4 years. We had no idea what we were missing until we purchased this Narwal Freo X10 Pro. It maps very fast. It is extremely quite. The vacuum then mop with a refreshed mop head solution is much better than dragging around a robot mop pad with no way to clean it without removing and washing it. We have 3 Australian Sheppards that shed alot. This was the number one concern, whereas the prvious unit needed daily attention. Not a single hair tangle in the floating rotating brush of this unique Narwal Freo X10 Pro Robot vacuum. 4 months of no robot management is wonderful. The application was easy to use with a ton of customizable options. The AI option to recognize various floor types and throw rugs ensures a complete clean and quick simple setup. Lastly the price vs product was very reasonable. Great product! After spending many months researching, we are glad we made this investment.

After five months, it's basically a brick
Color: White
We've had this robot for five months, and it isn't durable. It worked fine for a couple months. But now it works fine for maybe 20 minutes and then just starts spinning around or going back in forth in the same area wasting its battery. The endless troubleshooting does not help. Cleaning all the sensors, resetting the robot, remapping the house ... Nothing helps. It is only being used in about 1100 sq ft of total space, so it's just not that complicated. It's been trying (and failing) to vacuum our smallish living room for nearly five hours, after several resets/etc. Back when it did function, the vacuum is rather loud if you want it to actually pick up anything big enough to see. The vacuum and mop are both terrible at inner corners, and the intersection between rugs and hardwood flooring is a total miss. There's like a 12" strip along all rugs where mopping never occurs. Definitely not a machine to be used without supplemental sweeping and mopping. The machine insists on starting rugs at the corner, so it pulls up even pretty heavy rugs sometimes. It's sucks up items like socks instead of avoiding them. Also, the machine has never successfully left alone no-vacuum rugs or no-go areas, so some rooms (like with high pile rugs or Christmas tree stands) just don't work without physical barricades. Really, really makes me miss the old reliable roombas...

This vacuum is a game changer
Color: White
Not all robotic vacuums are the same, and after testing so many of them in my life this one has outperformed the others hands down! From the suction power, to the battery life, and then the app I can't find a single thing I don't love. The robot is and to pickup small crumbs, dirt, the typical messes, but most importantly it picks up kitty litter like it's nothing. This is an instant game changer. I no longer need to clean up after a robot. It's amazing! The battery life is great! I have a 2500 sq ft house and it can handle all of it before charging. The "home base" makes this effortless where I just schedule my cleans and it takes care of the rest. The app is really nicely built. It's simple and easy to navigate but it also gives me all of the advanced options such as invisible walls and no-go zones. Overall, this is robotic vacuum is my new go-to and I look forward to using it for many years to come!

$500, not $600. It isn’t worth $600
Color: White
You’re gonna need to put on some glasses and grab a drink for this one. Cons : - Has issues with “muddy mats” brand rugs and mats, along with light mats - It ate my socks - Will molest your standing fans and shoes and pet toys - Castor wheel is a hair magnet along with the “tangle less” floating brush - Mop heads get dirty after just one run of the entire house - It hates charging cables - And dryer sheets PROS: - Smarter than Shark brand vacuums - Excellent management of houses and avoiding most obstacles - It mops and vacuums well - Cleaning is very easy - Cat litter gets sucked up on the strong setting (not the super strong, though that works too) - Battery lasts for vacuuming most of the house - No navigation issues - Doesn’t mess up your furniture - IT WORKS IN THE DARK the floating brush though where the metal shaft sits inside the brush itself and the miniscule space between the spinning part and the brush itself gathers hair like a magnet and will give constant roller brush errors if not regularly cleaned. The castor wheel I swear has more hair than anything I’ve seen. Even the shark didn’t collect it this bad.

Value for Money- Exceptional performance and features!!!!
This vacuum/mop system is wonderful! I highly recommend it. This is bi-far the best vacuum and moping system which effectively cleans my floors and carpet. I've always been on the lookout for anything that can lighten my cleaning load. it’s been a real game-changer for my household routine. The self-washing and self-charging features are a huge win. I no longer have to worry about cleaning the mop or making sure it’s charged; it takes care of itself. It moves around furniture and other obstacles smoothly, rarely bumping into anything. It easily navigates tight spaces and corners, making sure every area gets cleaned. Value for Money: Considering all its features and how well it cleans, I think it’s a fantastic investment. It’s made keeping my home clean so much easier and less time-consuming. The robot vacuum was able to map my house successfully, the battery life is a bit longer than my previous robot vacuums, the suction is also great. I saw it go over crumbs in the kitchen and it picked up without any problems, and also has a mop functionality. It has a functioning app, very easy to use. The vacuum is also very quiet. By far, this is my favorite robot vacuum and I’ve tried many as I do not like to go around the house mopping and vacuuming. 10/10 would recommend this model - worth the investment. Overall I could not be happier with this purchase, my home is the cleanest it has been since I’ve first moved in.
