Appendix A. Cable and connector specifications

IMPORTANT NOTE

The maximum cable lengths supported vary widely between devices and cables. It may be possible to use cables that are longer than those specified below with certain PCs and peripherals but this cannot be guaranteed. If you experience problems try using shorter cables.

A1. Keyboard, monitor and mouse to SmartView

Cable specification:

All of the shared devices plug directly into the relevant ports at the rear of the SmartView. If you use an AT style keyboard you will need an AT (5 pin DIN female) to PS/2 (6 pin mini-DIN male) converter. Keyboard, monitor and mouse extension cables can be used to increase the distance from SmartView up to 10m. Most keyboards and mice will also operate at distances of 20 metres.

A2. SmartView to PCs 1 to 16

Cable specifications:

Video - 15 pin high density male D connector to 15 pin high density male D connector wired as a standard VGA PC to monitor cable. There are two types commonly available. The best type cables which will give excellent quality are constructed with coaxial cable cores. Cheaper ‘data’ cables are often used, but can degrade video quality if used over longer distances. Avoid using 'data' cables longer than 2 metres unless the video quality is not important. Good quality coaxial video cables may be run at distances up to 50 metres with little loss of video quality.

Keyboard and PS/2 mice - 6 pin mini-DIN male connector to 6 pin mini-DIN male connector with all lines connected straight through (1-1,2-2 etc.). If the PC has a 5- pin DIN AT style keyboard connector you will need a PS/2 to AT keyboard adapter 6-pin mini-DIN female to 5-pin DIN male (readily available). Cables should be no longer than 30 metres.
