Rack Mounting Safety Instructions

Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extended to the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.

Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.

Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a device from the rack.

Use caution when pressing the device rail release latches and sliding a device into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.

After a device is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position, and then slide the device into the rack.

Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.

Make sure that all equipment used on the rack, including power strips and other electrical connectors, is properly grounded.

Ensure that proper airflow is provided for devices in the rack.

Ensure that the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment does not exceed the maximum ambient temperature specified for the equipment by the manufacturer.

Do not step on or stand on any device when servicing other devices in a rack.

Stacking

The KVM switch can be placed on any level surface that can safely support its weight plus the weight of attached cables. When placing the KVM switch on a desktop, remove the backing material from the rubber feet that came with this package and affix them to the switch’s bottom panel at the corners.

Note: To ensure adequate ventilation, allow at least 5 cm on each side, and 13 cm at the back for power cord and cable clearance.

Rack Mounting

The KVM switch can be mounted in a 19-in (1U) rack. The rack mount brackets can be installed on either the front or the back of the unit so that it can be mounted to the front or back of the rack.

1.Depending on whether you front-rack mount or rear-rack mount the unit, remove the two screws located on both sides of the front or back of the unit.

2.Use the screws supplied with the rack mount kit to attach the rack mount brackets to the front or rear of the unit.

3.Position the device in the front or rear of the rack and align the holes in the mount brackets with the holes in the rack.

4.Secure the rack mount brackets to the rack using user-supplied screws.

Use user supplied hardware to attach to the rack

Use the M3x8 Phillips head hex screws provided with the rack mount kit

Single-Stage Installation

In a single-stage installation, there are no additional KVM switches cascaded or daisy-chained from the B064-Series KVM. To set up a single- stage installation, refer to the following instructions and the corresponding installation diagrams.

1.Make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting, including all pre-existing devices on the installation, have been turned off.

2.Optional: Plug your Local Console’s keyboard, monitor, and mouse into the KVM’s Local Console Ports. You will need to connect the included USB – PS/2 Console Cable Kit to the console port on the back of the unit.

Note: You can use any combination of keyboard and mouse connections. For example, you can use a PS/2 keyboard with a USB mouse. USB keyboards and mice can plug into the USB ports on the front panel, as well as the ports on the USB – PS/2 Console Cable Kit. The B064-Series KVM Switch does not support distances above 65 ft between the KVM and the local monitor.

3.Use Cat5e cable to connect any available KVM port to a Server Interface Unit (SIU). See the chart in the Server Interface Unit section to determine the appropriate SIU.

4.Connect the Server Interface Unit to the computer/server.

5.Connect a Cat5e cable from the network into the KVM switch’s primary network port (LAN 1).

6.Optional: Connect a second Cat5e cable from the network into the KVM switch’s backup (secondary) network port (LAN 2).
