Overview
- The Aten KE6900ST-AX is a single display DVI-D KVM over IP transmitter that extends keyboard, video, and mouse control over standard IP networks. As a compact transmitter-only unit, it pairs with compatible KE69x0R receiver units to create flexible remote access solutions without requiring expensive matrix switches.
Designed for organisations needing cost-effective remote computer access, the KE6900ST-AX supports multiple connection topologies including one-to-one extender mode, one-to-many splitter mode, many-to-one switch mode, and many-to-many matrix configurations. This flexibility enables deployment across diverse working environments from control centres to distributed offices.
Security is built-in with AES-128 bit encryption protecting all data transmissions. The unit integrates with Aten's CCKM management software, which provides username/password authentication, auto-discovery of all KE Series devices on the network, and support for RADIUS, LDAP, and Active Directory authentication. This combination makes it suitable for organisations with stringent security and access control requirements.
Its slim, compact form factor makes the KE6900ST-AX ideal for installations where space is limited, while delivering the same reliable remote access capabilities as larger matrix systems at a lower total cost of ownership.

FAQs
What is the difference between the KE6900ST-AX transmitter and a full KVM matrix switch?
The KE6900ST-AX is a transmitter-only unit designed for cost-effective deployment. It pairs with compatible receiver units to create flexible configurations without the expense of a dedicated matrix switch. It offers the same topology flexibility (one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one, many-to-many) through software configuration rather than hardware.
What receiver units are compatible with the KE6900ST-AX transmitter?
The KE6900ST-AX transmitter is compatible with KE69x0R receiver units. Verify specific model compatibility with your Aten distributor or documentation for your exact use case.
Does the KE6900ST-AX support dual monitors?
No, the KE6900ST-AX is a single display transmitter supporting one DVI-D display. For dual display support, the KE6940 dual display extender is available as an alternative.
What are the security features included?
The KE6900ST-AX supports AES-128 bit encryption for secure data transmission. When used with CCKM management software, it also supports RADIUS, LDAP, Active Directory, and remote user authentication for enhanced access control.
What maximum cable distances are supported?
As an IP-based extender, the KE6900ST-AX extends access over standard Ethernet networks. Maximum distance is limited by your network infrastructure rather than fixed cable length restrictions.
Do I need additional software to operate the KE6900ST-AX?
The KE6900ST-AX works as a basic transmitter paired with compatible receivers. For advanced features including username/password authentication, auto-discovery, and flexible topology switching, the KE Management Software (CCKM) is recommended.
Is this suitable for control centre environments?
Yes. The KE6900ST-AX is designed for control centres, broadcasting, multimedia, and monitoring applications where remote access to multiple computer systems is required across networked infrastructure.
