Chapter 2: Hardware Installation

Before installation, please make sure all the peripherals and computers have been turned off. The installation below is based on 8 port-Rack Mount KVM Switch. Please follow the same installation procedure for the 16 port Rack Mount KVM Switch.

Step 1

Find a convenient place to put your KVM Switch. Its 19” rack mount form factor makes it ideal to be mounted on a 19” rack. When mounting to a rack, attach the included brackets to the sides of the KVM Switch. Take note of the length of your cables so that your computers, KVM Switch, keyboard, mouse and monitor are distanced properly.

Step 2 (Local Console)

Connect the monitor to the KVM Switch. Connect the attached cable, or the one included with your monitor, to the HDDB-15 female port on the back of the KVM unit marked with the monitor symbol at the CONSOLE connector.
