Connecting Your KVM Extender
Preparing Your Site
Before you can install the product, you need to prepare your site.
1. Determine where the Host computer will be located and set up the
computer.
2. Determine where the console devices (mouse, keyboard, monitor) will
be located and place them appropriately.
3. a) If you are using surface cabling, ensure you have enough Category
5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network cabling to connect the Host
Unit to the Remote Unit’s location, and that each end is terminated with
a RJ-45 connector. The cabling should not go through any networking
equipment (i.e. router, switch).
OR
b) If you are using premises cabling, ensure that the Category 5
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network cabling between the Host Unit
and the Remote Unit has been properly terminated in a wall outlet in
each location and there is a patch cable long enough to connect the
Remote Unit and the Host Unit to their respective outlets. The cabling
should not go through any networking equipment (i.e. router, switch).
