Adder AVM-C1100-USR-POE – AdderView Matrix C1100 User Station, PoE Kit

What is the Adder Technology AVM-C1100-USR-POE KVM matrix user station?

The Adder Technology AVM-C1100-USR-POE is an ADDERView Matrix C1100 User Station supplied with Adder's 12V PoE splitter, so the user end of a KVM matrix can be powered from a PoE switch instead of a local outlet. It extends one DisplayPort display at up to 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz, four USB 2.0 ports and two-channel audio over a single Cat5e (or better) cable or fiber link. It is built for control rooms, broadcast suites and operations desks that need fast, pixel-perfect access to up to 16 remote computers from one workstation.

How does the Adder Technology AVM-C1100-USR-POE work?

Each ADDERView Matrix C1100 User Station acts as the master controller of its own matrix. You program up to 16 sources into its target list, and each source connects through an ADDERView Matrix C110 Computer Access Module (CAM); a single CAM can be reached by up to 256 user stations. Switching between computers takes less than one second, triggered from the on-screen display (OSD) or keyboard hotkeys.

Video uses spatially lossless encoding with 1:1 pixel mapping, so the image at the desk matches the image leaving the computer with no compression artifacts. The unit supports 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz and 1920 x 1200 up to 120 Hz, with EDID management that passes the true monitor characteristics back to the source or holds a fixed EDID.

The link port is a 1GbE RJ45 for runs up to 100 m (328 ft), plus an SFP cage for fiber transceivers when the desk is further away. In this PoE kit, the included PSU-POE-12VDC-2A splitter takes power from an IEEE 802.3at switch port and feeds the station's 12V input, which simplifies cabling at operator positions without convenient mains power. A RESTful API over HTTPS (OpenAPI 3.1.0) allows third-party control surfaces to switch the matrix, and devices ship in a zero-config state for plug-and-play deployment.

What are the key features of the Adder Technology AVM-C1100-USR-POE?

• PoE-ready kit — The included 24W PoE splitter lets the station run from a PoE switch port where local power is not available.
• 2K video at 60 Hz — Supports 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz and 1920 x 1200 up to 120 Hz on one DisplayPort display.
• Pixel-perfect transmission — Spatially lossless encoding with 1:1 pixel mapping delivers color-accurate video with no artifacts.
• Sub-second switching — Operators move between computers in under a second via OSD or hotkeys.
• Up to 16 sources per station — Each user station holds its own target list, and each CAM supports up to 256 user stations.
• USB 2.0 with class control — Four USB-A ports support tablets, joysticks, 3D mice and storage, with the option to disable device classes.
• Fiber-ready — An SFP cage extends the link beyond the 100 m copper limit.
• API control — RESTful HTTPS API lets third-party controllers switch the matrix.
• Fanless metal chassis — Silent operation at the operator desk with a 340,000-hour calculated MTBF.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between AVM-C1100-USR-POE and AVM-C1100-USR?

Adder lists AVM-C1100-USR-POE as the C1100 User Station supplied with the PSU-POE-12V-2A PoE splitter, so it can be powered from a PoE switch. The standard AVM-C1100-USR-US ships with a mains power supply.

What do I need on the computer side?

Each source computer connects through an ADDERView Matrix C110 CAM, available in DisplayPort and HDMI versions.

Which network switch should I use?

Adder offers preconfigured ADDERView Matrix switches such as the AVM-C12-US 12-port switch, which ship ready for plug-and-play matrix deployment. For a PoE kit, the switch port must supply IEEE 802.3at power.

How far can the user station be from the computers?

Up to 100 m over Cat5e or better copper. For longer runs, fit an SFP fiber module in the SFP cage.

Can the matrix be controlled from a third-party system?

Yes. ADDERView Matrix offers a RESTful API over HTTPS that conforms to OpenAPI 3.1.0 for control from third-party controllers.

Does Creation Networks support installation and warranty?

Yes. We design, install and support complete Adder KVM systems nationwide. Browse the full Adder Technology collection or contact our team for extended warranty options.
