Component

Description

 

 

 

1

Power Socket

This is a standard 3-pin AC power socket. The power cord

 

 

from an AC source plugs in here.

 

 

 

2

Power Switch

This is a standard rocker switch that powers the unit on and

 

 

off.

 

 

 

3

PON Port

This connector is provided for a Power over the Net™ (PON)

 

 

unit to plug into. A PON device allows computers attached to

the KL9108 / KL9116 to be booted remotely over the LAN, WAN, or Internet. Contact your dealer for more details.

4KVM Ports (CPU 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 7, for details.) Do NOT attempt to use ordinary 15-pin VGA connector cables to link these ports to the computers.

5

External Console

For flexibility and convenience, the KL9108 / KL9116

 

Section

supports an external KVM console. A custom console cable

 

 

set is provided to attach the external console’s monitor,

 

 

keyboard, and mouse.

 

 

 

6

LAN Port

The cable that connects the KL9108 / KL9116 to a LAN,

 

 

WAN, or Internet plugs in here.

 

 

 

*The KL9116 is pictured above. The KL9108 rear panel is the same as that of the KL9116, except that it has 8 KVM ports instead of 16.
