9. Connecting a KVM2USB Device

The KVM2USB Frame Grabber provides full Keyboard-Video-

Mouse (KVM) capabilities so that you can use the KVM2USB to

manage a headless server from an administrator’s PC. The

headless server can be a PC running Windows, Linux, or

Mac OS X. The administrator’s PC can be running Windows or

Mac OS X.
• If the headless server has a VGA port and PS2 mouse and

keyboard ports you can connect the KVM2USB directly.

• The KVM2USB also comes with PS/2 to USB adapters that

you can use if the headless server only has USB ports for

mouse and keyboard connections.

• The KVM2USB video connector is a VGA connector.

However, the KVM2USB is compatible with most DVI to VGA

adapters if the headless server has a DVI port.

This section shows KVM2USB package contents and describes

how to connect a KVM2USB to a headless server and to the

administrator’s PC.
