Introduction
This document is the User’s Manual for KVM Switches from Chatsworth Products, Inc. (CPI).
It guides the user through installation, operation and maintenance of the equipment.
The KVM Switch is a standalone, rack-mount keyboard, video and mouse switch that allows
multiple server computers to be accessed using a single set of rack-mount peripherals. Some
models also support access for a remote computer and/or an Ethernet connection.
The table below lists the CPI Part Numbers for the standalone KVM Switches covered by this
manual. There is a separate manual for the 17” LCD KVM Drawers and Switches.

Note that there are four basic configurations: Analog or IP switches with DB15 or Cat5/6
computer ports. Analog switches provide local only connections and are accessed using rack-
mount peripherals or a connected remote computer terminal. IP switches include an Ethernet
connection and can also be accessed through the IP network using a Java-enabled web
browser.
DB15 computer ports use a proprietary cable for computer connections and must be located
close to the computers. Cat5/6 computer ports use standard Cat5/6 UTP cables with RJ45
connectors to attach to computers. A dongle (ordered separately) is used to connect the
computer, which can be located up to 132 feet (40 meters) away from the KVM switch.
