For each PS/2 computer to be connected to the KVM Switch, one VGA cable, one PS/2 keyboard cable, and one PS/2 mouse cable is necessary. Keyboard and mouse cables must have PS/2 male to PS/2 male connectors. For USB computers, one VGA cable and one USB A to B cable is required.

To support resolutions of up to 2048x1536@85Hz, use of a 75-Ohm coaxial VGA cable is required to preserve signal integrity. Cables must have HDDB15 female to HDDB15 male connectors.
