Dual-head KVM receiver over IP
The Vertiv HMX6500R-400 is a new IP-based KVM receiver that delivers dual-head DisplayPort video at 2560 x 1600 resolution. It connects to the network through one RJ45 port and two SFP+ cages operating at 1 GbE. USB 2.0 true emulation across four ports supports keyboard, mouse and peripheral sharing. Audio input and output jacks complete the console interface.
Suits operators managing many endpoints from one
This unit serves administrators who need real-time access to physical and virtual machines through a single human-machine interface. Dual-head display works for physical machines; virtual machines are limited to single-head operation. Buyers who require simultaneous dual-head support for virtual desktops should consider a different solution. The receiver also requires a separate 12 V DC, 5 A power supply.
Single 1 GbE link carries video, USB and audio
All console traffic traverses one gigabit Ethernet connection, whether copper or fibre. This bandwidth constraint defines the maximum video quality and peripheral responsiveness. Network infrastructure must provide a dedicated 1 GbE path for each receiver to meet the stated 2560 x 1600 dual-head performance.

Questions about this item
Will the HMX6500R-400 pass USB 2.0 signals from my older keyboard and mouse through its five USB-A ports without extra drivers?
Yes, the five USB-A input ports and four USB 2.0 ports with true emulation forward legacy keyboard and mouse signals natively, so older peripherals work immediately.
How can I confirm the dual DisplayPort outputs are delivering 2560 x 1600 resolution after I connect the receiver?
Check the on-screen display or OS display settings; both DisplayPort outputs should report 2560 x 1600 when the link is active and the source is configured for dual-head mode.
Does the box include the 12 VDC 5 A power supply and any DisplayPort or SFP+ cables, or must I buy them separately?
The unit ships with the external 12 VDC 5 A adapter; DisplayPort cables and SFP+ modules are not included and must be purchased separately.
