Keep operators close to the system, even when the hardware is far away. The ATEN CE980 extends True 4K KVM control over fiber up to 300 m, giving infrastructure teams a practical way to place servers, workstations, and sensitive equipment in secure or noise-controlled locations without sacrificing visual fidelity or input responsiveness. Support both DisplayPort and HDMI environments from a single optical KVM platform, reducing the need to standardize around one video path. That flexibility matters in mixed estates where control-room consoles, engineering stations, and production systems rarely share the same display standard. Fiber transport also helps preserve signal integrity across longer runs where copper becomes less reliable. For teams managing high-value systems, the result is a cleaner remote-access experience with fewer constraints on rack placement, room design, and physical security. The CE980 is a strong fit when distance, image quality, and operational control all matter. It is designed for environments where a lower-cost extender would force compromises in resolution, reach, or day-to-day usability.
