RGB Spectrum XtendPoint XP 102 TX – 2-Port KVM Transmitter

Product Overview

The RGB Spectrum XP 102 TX is the transmitter endpoint of the XtendPoint KVM-over-IP system, installed at the source computer to extend its video, keyboard, mouse, USB, audio, and RS-232 over standard Gigabit Ethernet. This 2-port KVM transmitter encodes dual DisplayPort signals up to 4Kp60 4:4:4 UHD and delivers them to remote operator stations. As a KVM-over-IP transmitter, it pairs with XP 102 RX receivers to build a scalable KVM matrix for control rooms, command centers, and networked workstations. It is a strong fit for integrators specifying a secure dual-head KVM-over-IP control solution across a room or a wider enterprise.

Product Description

The XP 102 TX sits at the source side of an XtendPoint deployment, connecting directly to the host computer and encoding its video, keyboard, mouse, USB, audio, and serial data for transport to receiver endpoints at operator desks. It accepts two DisplayPort 1.1 video connections from the host, a USB 2.0 Type B host connection, embedded and analog audio, and an RS-232 serial port, making it well suited to extending dual-display workstations. Because remote operators interact with the host through KlickSimple cursor navigation, the source computer can be relocated to a secure rack or equipment room away from the operator position.

Running over standard Gigabit Ethernet in point-to-point, LAN, or private WAN configurations, the XP 102 TX supports one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, and many-to-many topologies as a deployment grows. The XtendPoint Central Manager lets administrators discover, configure, manage, and monitor every transmitter and receiver endpoint from a single interface. The transmitter is a 1RU device that mounts cleanly in a rack alongside the source computer.

Key Features

• 2-Port Transmitter I/O — Accepts two DisplayPort 1.1 video connections from the host to extend dual-display workstations.
• 4Kp60 4:4:4 UHD Encoding — Captures and transports full-color signals, with the XP 102 supporting one display at 2560x1600 at 60Hz or two displays at 1920x1200 at 60Hz.
• Host USB and Serial — Connects to the source computer via USB 2.0 Type B and carries an RS-232 9-pin serial channel for full keyboard, mouse, and device control.
• Embedded and Analog Audio — Supports DisplayPort embedded audio plus 3.5 mm line in and line out for complete source audio transport.
• KlickSimple Navigation — Lets remote operators take control of the connected host by moving the mouse to its desktop, with no separate switch to actuate.
• Networked Matrix Switching — Operates over standard Gigabit Ethernet in point-to-point, LAN, or private WAN configurations and supports one-to-one through many-to-many topologies.
• Central Manager Administration — Works with the XtendPoint Central Manager so administrators can discover, configure, manage, and monitor all endpoints centrally.
• 1RU Rack-Mount Design — Installs in a standard equipment rack beside the source computer with an optional rackmount kit.

Typical Applications

• Command and control centers — Dual-head source computers relocated to secure equipment rooms and controlled from remote operator desks.
• Government spaces — Secure facilities that keep host systems isolated while extending control to operators.
• Broadcast studios — Production computers extended from machine rooms to control positions.
• Training rooms — Lab and demonstration systems extended from a central rack to instructor stations.
• Commercial meeting spaces — Workstations housed centrally and accessed across a building or campus.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the XP 102 TX connect to?
The XP 102 TX is the transmitter endpoint that attaches to the source computer. It pairs with XP 102 RX receivers at operator desks, communicating over standard Gigabit Ethernet in point-to-point, LAN, or private WAN configurations.

What can I connect to the host side?
It accepts two DisplayPort 1.1 video connections to extend dual-display workstations, a USB 2.0 Type B host connection for keyboard and mouse, embedded and analog audio, and an RS-232 serial port.

How is it mounted and installed?
The unit is a 1RU device that installs in a standard equipment rack beside the source computer using the optional rackmount kit. It connects to the network via RJ-45 or an SFP transceiver for fiber runs.

How does it fit into a larger AV and control system?
XtendPoint scales from one-to-one up to many-to-many topologies and is managed centrally through the XtendPoint Central Manager, so transmitters and receivers can be added as the operation grows. Remote operators control each host using KlickSimple navigation.

What warranty and support are available?
The XP 102 TX is covered by the manufacturer warranty. For warranty registration, design assistance, or technical support, contact Creation Networks at 888-230-3661 or via our contact page.
