Frequently Asked Questions - KE6940R ATEN
How do I connect the KE6940R to a transmitter?
Connect the KE6940R to a compatible ATEN KE6940T transmitter over a Gigabit Ethernet network. Use a network switch for multiple connections. For direct connection, use a crossover or straight cable between the two devices.
Can the KE6940R be used with a standard network switch?
Yes, the device works with standard Gigabit switches. It uses IP-based KVM extension, so no special cabling is required. For optimal performance, enable IGMP snooping if using multicast.
Does the KE6940R support 4K resolution at 60 Hz?
The KE6940R supports 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) at 60 Hz with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling. For 4:4:4, the maximum refresh rate may be limited to 30 Hz. Check your transmitter and display compatibility.
How do I update the firmware on the KE6940R?
Firmware updates can be performed via the web GUI using the device's IP address. Download the latest firmware from ATEN's website, then upload it through the maintenance section. Reboot the device after the update.
Can multiple receivers work with a single transmitter?
Yes, the KE6940R supports point-to-multipoint operation. One KE6940T transmitter can broadcast to several receivers simultaneously when connected to a multicast-capable network.
What is the maximum distance for KVM over IP?
The maximum distance is determined by your network. Over a standard Ethernet cable, each segment can be up to 100 meters. With a routed IP network, the distance can be virtually unlimited as long as latency is acceptable.
Can I connect USB devices to the KE6940R?
Yes, the receiver is equipped with USB 2.0 ports to connect keyboard, mouse, and other peripherals. These devices act as if they were connected directly to the CPU on the transmitter side.
How is the KE6940R powered?
The device comes with an external power adapter providing DC 5V, 2A. Connect the adapter to a wall outlet and plug the DC jack into the rear panel. There is no internal power supply.
What is HDCP 2.2 and why is it important?
HDCP 2.2 is a copy protection standard for 4K content. The KE6940R supports HDCP 2.2 to allow 4K content from Blu-ray players and streaming devices to pass through without handshake issues.
Is the KE6940R secure for industrial applications?
Yes, it offers AES 128-bit encryption for data transmission, ensuring secure KVM sessions over LAN/WAN. Additionally, you can configure access control via the web GUI to restrict user access.
