3.2.2 Server Access Module Links

Dependant on the KVM module used, there will be either 8 or 16 RJ-45 sockets labeled as COMPUTER CONNECTIONS. Each socket supports a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link to an individual server system.

Note: The maximum length of the cable can be up to 10 metres (32 feet), however, for KVM modules KVT8CATUV and KVT16CATUV ensure that the overall distance between a remote user (connected to a remote extender) and any server must not exceed 300 metres (980 feet).

1Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the KVM module.

2Connect a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link cable to one of the COMPUTER CONNECTIONS ports. See Figure 3-3.
