Dual-Head DVI KVM Over IP

The Black Box ACR1020A-R is an IP-based KVM extender kit designed for administrators who need to operate dual-head DVI workstations from a remote console across a standard Ethernet LAN. It transports dual DVI-D video, USB 2.0 signals, and audio to a receiver unit located up to 330 feet away. The system suits server rooms, broadcast studios, or secure facilities where the computer must remain physically isolated from the operator.

100-metre copper limit

Video and data travel over ordinary copper Ethernet links with a maximum single-hop reach of 100 metres, matching the 330-foot figure supplied for the extender. Inserting additional network switches extends the path further, but each copper segment remains bound by that distance. The kit includes a second LAN port that supports teaming mode to aggregate bandwidth, while no-loss compression keeps the stream efficient without introducing visible artefacts.

1920 by 1080 per head

Each DVI output delivers a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080, giving two full-HD desktops side by side for monitoring or control tasks. That resolution ceiling means the unit comfortably handles standard office, surveillance, or industrial HMI layouts, but it cannot drive higher-density panels such as 1440p or 4K displays. Magic Eye support helps stabilise dithered graphics, yet the 1080p cap remains the hard boundary for any connected monitor.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the ACR1020A-R for a dual-head DVI setup or a single-head alternative?

The ACR1020A-R is built for dual-head DVI-D video, USB 2.0, and audio over IP. Pick it when you need two DVI displays at 1920 x 1080 from one transmitter.

What does the 1920 x 1080 resolution mean once the extender is running in my rack?

Each DVI head delivers pixel-perfect 1920 x 1080 video with no-loss compression across the LAN, so users see full HD on both monitors without visible artefacts.

How far can the IP matrix extend signals over standard Ethernet cabling?

The system sends dual-head DVI, USB 2.0, and audio up to 330 feet (100 m) on a single LAN segment, and farther when additional network switches are added.
