CHAPTER 4: Checklist of System Components

4.2 The Cables You’ll Need

If you are using the ServSwitch™ Brand CAT5 KVM Micro Extender to get greater

distance between a CPU and a VGA monitor, PS/2 keyboard, and PS/2 mouse,

your Micro Extender package should have included everything you’ll need except

for your Unit-interconnection cable. Read Sections 4.2.1, 4.2.3, and 4.2.5 carefully,

then skip ahead to Chapter 5.

If you are using the Micro Extender to get greater distance between a ServSwitch

family KVM switch and a CPU, a user station (monitor/keyboard/mouse), or a

compatible switch, you might need additional non-included cabling. Read the

relevant sections on the next few pages, from Section 4.2.1 through Section 4.2.5.

NOTE

When you order any cable listed in this section, you will be asked to

specify the length you want. Some cables might be available in a few

stock lengths only.

If you are using any equipment with PC/AT style connectors, you might also

need some combination of these adapters:

• To attach a CPU or KVM switch with a 5-pin DIN female keyboard

connector

to the Local Unit: A keyboard-port adapter such as product code FA211.

• All except the KVM/Serial/Audio model: To attach a CPU or KVM switch with an

RS-232 serial DB9 male mouse connector to the Local Unit

: A mouse-port

adapter such as product code AC244A. (If the

mouse port is DB25 rather than

DB9, you’ll also need an FA521A serial adapter

•

To attach a keyboard or KVM switch with a 5-pin DIN male keyboard connector

to the Remote Unit or Dual-Access Local Unit:

A keyboard adapter such as

product code FA212.

You’ll use the three-in-one KVM-extension cable included with the Extender to

connect the Local Unit’s DB25 composite port to the CPU’s keyboard, mouse, and

video ports. As mentioned above, you might also need port adapters if your CPU

has PC/AT type ports.

To attach the DB9 serial port and the 3.5-mm audio ports of a KVM/Serial/

Audio Local Unit to the CPU’s serial and audio ports, you’ll use the DB9 male-to-

female serial-extension cable and the 3.5-mm stereo audio-extension cables

included with the Extender.
