Equipment Requirements
Cables
For each PS/2 computer you plan to connect to the Switch, you will need one
VGA cable, one PS/2 keyboard cable, and one PS/2 mouse cable. Keyboard and
mouse cables must have PS/2 male-to-PS/2 male connectors.
To support resolutions of up to 1920x1440@65Hz and to preserve signal
integrity, use of a 75-Ohm coaxial VGA cable is required. Cables must have
HDDB15 female-to-HDDB15 male connectors.
Belkin OmniView KVM Cables offer the highest quality possible to ensure
that your data is optimally transmitted. KVM Cables include PC99 color-coded
connectors for easier identification and connection. Double-shielded,
strain-relief, ferrite-bead, E Series Cables include an industry-standard, 14-pin,
coaxial VGA cable and nickel-plated connectors for high-resolution applications.
The following cable kit is included and recommended for your KVM Switch:
