Overview
USB KVM over IP lets you control a remote computer from a local keyboard and mouse, with video delivered via the AV over IP encoder/decoder pair. No extra KVM hardware needed — KVM signals travel over the same 1G Ethernet as video.
Supported SKUs
Note: AVO-IPJP2KS (Slim) does not support USB KVM.
How It Works
- Encoder (remote computer): Connect computer HDMI to encoder. Connect USB cable from encoder USB port to computer USB port.
- Decoder (local workstation): Connect decoder HDMI to display. Connect keyboard and mouse to decoder USB ports.
- When routed, keyboard/mouse at the decoder transmit over IP to the encoder, appearing as local USB devices.
Setup Steps
- Connect encoder HDMI input to remote computer video output.
- Connect USB cable: encoder USB port → remote computer USB port.
- Connect keyboard and mouse to decoder USB ports.
- Connect decoder HDMI output to local display.
- Route encoder to decoder via web GUI or IP controller.
- KVM is active. USB 2.0 devices (flash drives, hubs) also supported.
