CAC (Common Access Card) Configuration and Operation (F1DN104F model only)

CAC connection to the computer requires a separate USB cable connection and allows the user to specify whether there is a CAC required for that computer or not. This allows the CAC to be connected and controlled separately to the keyboard, mouse, video, and audio.

Notice: The CAC functionality was not certified by Common Criteria. Currently, Common Criteria does not offer any guidelines for CAC peripheral support in the Peripheral Sharing Protection Profile. The inclusion of this functionality does not affect the Common Criteria certification applied to the rest of the product.

Step 1 Installation

1..1 Using the included USB cable, connect one end of the cable to the computer that requires CAC, and the other end to the CAC port on the KVM Switch that corresponds to the computer.

1..2 Enable CAC for the same port connection in Step 1.1 by switching the CAC switch to the right.

1..3 Repeat steps above for additional computers that require CAC. Make sure that the CAC switch is disabled (left) for all other non-connected CAC systems.

1..4 Once configured, the CAC connection will be switched only when required by the connected computer. When switching from a CAC- enabled port to a non-CAC-enabled port, the CAC connection will remain with the last previously selected port where the CAC was set to “Enable.”
