NOTE: If you are using cables other than those provided in the SV1115IPEXT package
or branded by StarTech.com, ensure that the cables are of high quality and use the
minimum possible distance necessary. Low quality or excessively long (particularly video)
cables between the host computer and the SV1115IPEXT could degrade performance.
NOTE: In the event that you do not have enough integrated USB ports available on the
managed computer to directly connect the keyboard, mouse, and SV1115IPEXT, you may use
a high-quality USB hub on one of the computer’s USB ports to make all of the connections.
IMPORTANT: The SV1115IPEXT is convection-cooled. As such, please ensure the vents
on both sides are unobstructed.
Connecting a Local Keyboard, Mouse, and Monitor
SV1115IPEXT has the capability to connect a local keyboard, mouse, and monitor to
the host computer for maintenance and monitoring, allowing users to physically use
the host computer as though SV1115IPEXT were transparent. If needed, the unit can be
run through a typical KVM switch like any other computer. Using a KVM cable, you can
connect the Server Remote Control’s host computer inputs to the “console” connectors
on a KVM switch allowing you to control more than one computer remotely using a
single Server Remote Control. If you want to use SV1115IPEXT through a KVM switch,
consult the documentation that came with the switch for more details on how to make
the necessary connections. See the section entitled Configuring the SV1115IPEXT for
more information on using a KVM switch with the SV1115IPEXT.
