Chapter 2
Hardware Setup
Overview
For convenience and flexibility that allows mixing the PS/2 and USB interfaces, as well as multiple platforms, the KVM Over the NET™ switch design utilizes KVM Adapter Cables, that serve as intermediaries between the switch and the connected devices (refer to the installation diagram on p. 16).
A separate KVM Adapter Cable is required for each server or device connection. The model numbers of the Adapters are given in the KVM Adapter Cables section, page 7.
