Installing the DVI Connector
The DVI connector card may be installed in the SGS 408 by
following the instructions and illustrations shown below. Before
the DVI connector card can be installed, the internal components
of the SGS 408 must first be accessed.
Internal access
To gain access to the internal components, do the following:
1. Remove the power cable from the SGS 408 and from the
power source.
Do not open the cover of the switcher without unplugging
the power cord.
2. If the SGS 408 switcher is rack mounted, remove the input
and output cables from it and remove the unit from the
rack. If the switcher is not rack mounted, you do not need
to remove the input and output cables.
3. Remove 16 screws from the sides and top of the cover and
two #10 screws from the upper half of the front panel
(figure 1).

Installing the DVI connector card
After following the instructions in “Internal access” to remove
the cover, do the following:
1. Remove and retain the two screws that hold the DVI
connector cover in place (figure 2), and set the cover aside.
You will not need it.

2. Insert the DVI connector through the hole that was created
