Matrox Extio F1220 KVM extender

Control from a distance.

Separate I/O devices from the computer and drive displays from a distance.

Control your workspace

The Matrox Extio Series is ideal for environments requiring data security, low heat emissions, no noise and more workspace. Leveraging PCI Express bus extension technology, Extio separates I/O devices from the computer and drives multiple monitors from a distance to deliver a user experience that parallels a working environment in which the computer is situated at the user's desk.
