Installation
Single-Stage Installation
In a single-stage installation, there are no additional KVM switches daisy-chained from the KVM switch. To set up a single-
stage installation, refer to the following instructions and the corresponding installation diagram:
1 Make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting has been turned OFF. You must unplug the power cords of
any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function.
2 Ground the KVM switch by connecting one end of the included grounding wire to the grounding terminal on the back of
the unit, and then connect the other end to a suitable grounding object. Proper grounding helps to protect your unit from
damage due to surges or static electricity.
3 Plug your keyboard, monitor and mouse into the console ports on the back of the unit. Note: You can connect any
combination of keyboard and mouse; both USB keyboard and mouse, both PS/2 keyboard and mouse, or one of each
type.
4 Connect an available RJ45 computer port on the KVM to a Server Interface Unit (SIU) appropriate for the computer you
are connecting using Cat5e/6 cable. (See Server Interface Units (SIUs) on page 2 for details on which SIU to use.)
5 Connect the SIUs console connectors to the computer.
6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each additional computer you are connecting.
7 Connect the included power cord to the KVM switch, and then plug it into a Tripp Lite Surge Suppressor, Power Distribution
Unit (PDU) or Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
8 Power ON the KVM switch, and then power ON all connected computers.
