No.	Component	Description
1	Daisy-chain Ports	When daisy-chaining units, the cables plug in here.
		The port on the right is the Chain Out port; the one on
		the left is the Chain In port.
2	KVM Ports	The cables that link to the computers plug in here.
		Note: The shape of these 15-pin connectors has been
		specifically modified so that only custom KVM cables
		designed to work with this switch can plug in.
		(See Cables, page 4, for details.) Do NOT attempt to
		use ordinary 15-pin VGA connector cables to link
		these ports to the computers.
3	Cable Tie Slot	If you want to use a cable tie to gather the cables
		together, you can run it through this slot to attach it to
		the unit.
4	Power Jack	The power adapter cable plugs in here.
5	Firmware Upgrade	The Firmware Upgrade Cable that transfers the
	Port	firmware upgrade data from the administrator's
		computer to the ACS1208A / ACS1216A (see
		page 35), plugs into this RJ-11 connector.
6	Firmware Upgrade	During normal operation and while performing a
	Recovery Switch	firmware upgrade, this switch should be in the
		NORMAL position. If a firmware upgrade operation
		does not complete successfully, this switch is used to
		perform a firmware upgrade recovery. See Firmware
		Upgrade Recovery, page 39, for details.
7	Local Console Ports	The keyboard, monitor, and mouse that make up the
		Local Console plug in here.

Note: The ACS1216A is pictured above. The ACS1208A front panel is the same as that of the ACS1216A, except that it has 8 KVM ports.
