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 (see page 16
for alternative part numbers), 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.
