Best Answer

The hardware is usually connected by cat5 or cat6 cables. The wall sockets that they are usually plugged into run to a switch or switches that enable them to connect via more cables to the patch panel where the servers are also connected. each item would have its own static IP address(or in some cases they would use DHCP to assign them) so it could be found on the lan. IP addresses allow the switches and routers to direct the input from the computers to the proper machine.

What does the software Monitors AnyWhere do?

Monitors Anywhere software uses HDMI over LAN - so that one computer can display onto many screens that are not connected to the computer by a display cable, but are connected with LAN cables. So you do not need to have a computer behind each monitor. But you do need in addition to the software, HDMI over LAN hardware. This hardware replaces the conventional graphics card of a computer.. Also HDMI to LAN hardware from different manufactures cannot be installed on the same computer. The type of hardware also limits the number of monitor that can be connected. ** On April 2015 a new updated driver was released which allows you to connect any hardware manufacturer and also any number of units to a single PC. Also all HDMI over LAN components must be found in the same LAN network segment.
