Installing the Host Unit

1. Place the Host Unit near the computer.
2. Switch off the computer and disconnect any existing VGA and input connections.
3. Using a StarTech.com integrated KVM cable (see page 8 for part numbers), connect

the end of the cable that has two (USB) or three (PS/2) connectors to the VGA Out

connector and the USB or mouse and keyboard PS/2 connectors on the 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 console access to the host computer, connect a PS/2 mouse,

keyboard and VGA monitor 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).
