away from the host system computer. For both variants, a local module attaches
to the computer system and provides connections for the local peripherals
while the remote module is placed up to 984 ft (300m) away (656 feet [200m]
maximum for the ACU5116A variant) and handles the remote peripherals. The
long distance link between the two modules is made via Category 5, or higher,
twisted pair cabling.
Special circuitry within the remote module allows you to make adjustments to
the sharpness and brightness settings to suit your own preferences. Additionally,
a Skew adjustment is also provided to counteract the effects of uneven lengths
of twisted pair cables that are used to carry the video signals.

the output of the host system and either can take control, providing it is not
being used by the other user. A user relinquishes control two seconds after their
last key press or mouse movement.
