3.2.3 Power Connection

The KVM module is provided with a power adapter capable of supplying the display monitor, keyboard and KVM module.

IMPORTANT: You must only use the manufacturer approved power adapter with the KVM module.

IMPORTANT: Due to the length of the power cable, if the rack tray is mounted high in the rack it may not be possible to place the power adapter at floor level. In this case it is important to mount it securely and in such a manner that it is not suspended from its output cable.

1 Attach the output lead from the power adapter to the 12V socket on the rear panel of the KVM module. See Figure 3-4.

2Connect the IEC connector of the supplied country-specific power lead to the socket of the power adapter.

3Connect the power cord to a nearby power outlet.

Note: Both the KVM module and the power adapter generate heat when in operation and will become warm to the touch. Do not enclose them or place them in locations where air cannot circulate to cool the equipment. Do not operate the equipment in ambient temperatures exceeding 35oC. Do not place the products in contact with equipment whose surface temperature exceeds 35oC.

3.2.3.1 Disconnecting Power

When removing the power connection be aware that the plug has a locking mechanism to prevent accidental disconnects. To remove, pull back the flat top segment of the plug body to disengage the lock and gently pull the whole plug from the power socket. See Figure 3-5.
