• We need a fast connection to your PC - Note that a VPN/Internet connection that is broadband is required.
• Keyboard and mouse and touch screen if desired (Touch Screen option - the USB model of the KTMT-1921 will handle up to a 21 inch screen easily and for about $300.00 will make most of Rx-Link touchable on the screen (some typing will still need to occur))
