Standalone Switch Installation

This section provides complete instructions for the hardware setup of a single Switch.
Connecting Computers to the Switch
1. Attach the IEC power cable to the power connector located on the rear of the Switch.
2. Using an RJ45 CAT5 or CAT6 cable, connect to a free port on your KVM Switch.
3. Connect the other end of the RJ45 cable to an OmniView ENTERPRISE Quad-Bus
Series Server Interface Module (Belkin part number F1DE101A-AP).
4. Connect the VGA and PS/2 connectors to the computer (make sure that you
connect the keyboard and mouse cables to the correct ports on your computer;
purple indicates the keyboard connector and green indicates the mouse connector).
5. Set the video compensation switch to the appropriate position as described in the
chart below.
Note: If video resolution is poor, adjust the respective video compensation switch + 1
position to improve.

INSTALLATION
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each additional computer you wish to connect.
Connect the Console
1. Set BANK address (The BANK address is preset to zero at the factory).
2. Connect the monitor to the Switch. Attach your monitor cable to the HDDB15
female port on the back of the Switch labeled "Console".
NOTE: 2x16 model shown
3. Connect the PS/2 or USB keyboard to the appropriate port on the back of the
Switch in the "Console" section (the purple PS/2 port).
4. Connect the PS/2 or USB mouse to the appropriate port on the back of the Switch
in the "Console" section (the green PS/2 port).
5. Repeat steps 1–4 above if you are connecting a second console.*
6. Power on the Switch.
7. Boot all of your host computers.
NOTE: When using USB hubs on the console parts (including keyboard/hub composite
devices), the KVM Switch will not allow a bus-powered hub to be plugged directly into
another bus hub. This is per the USB specification. For example, a user wants to extend
the keyboard cable length using a USB hub. If the USB hub is un-powered and the
keyboard has a USB hub built-in (typically un-powered as well), the keyboard will not
function. The solution is either to use a non-hub keyboard or power the intermediate
USB hub.
*Dual-console support available on 2x16 model only.
