Installing the Host Unit

1. Place the Host Unit near the Host computer system.
2. Switch off the computer and disconnect any connected devices.
3. Using the provided StarTech.com integrated KVM cable, connect the end of the cable

that has two (USB) or three (PS/2 + VGA) connectors to the VGA Out connector and the

USB or mouse and keyboard PS/2 connectors on the Host computer as appropriate.

(The PS/2 version of the cable is color-coded). Connect the opposite end of the cable

with a single connector to the gray-coded connector marked COMPUTER on the Host

Unit of the KVM extender.

4. If you wish to have local console access to the host computer, connect a USB mouse,

keyboard, and VGA monitor to the indicators marked as CONSOLE on the Host Unit.

5. Connect the UTP cable connection for the Remote Unit to the NETWORK RJ-45

connector on the Host Unit. Connect the opposite end to a terminated wall outlet

(if you are using premises cabling) or run it directly to the Remote Unit.

NOTE: The Host Unit can draw power from the Host computer system. If it cannot

draw sufficient power from the Host computer, however, a power adapter (not

included) may be required.
