Abstract

Disclosed is a KVM extender system, which includes a first module, comprising a first processor, a first interface, a first Ethernet transceiver and includes a second module, comprising a second processor, a second interface, a second Ethernet transceiver. The KVM extender system transceives first data packet and second data packet transformed from first mass data of a first mass storage, second mass data of a second mass storage, keyboard/mouse data, audio/sound data with a cable therebetween. The first data packet and the second data packet transceived between the first and second Ethernet transceivers are controlled by a half duplex communication executed by two wires of the cable. Moreover, the first module further comprises a third interface to transceive third mass data from the computer coupled therewith. The third mass data is also transformed into third data packet to be transceived with the first and second data packets.
