3.2 Interconnection Cable Requirements
To connect the Local and Remote units you will need:
•
DVI, PS2-Keyboard, PS2-Mouse:
Connect the supplied KVM CPU cable set to your
CPU (KVM.- Switch, etc.). Please ensure that the connection is tension-free!
•
DVI, USB-Keyboard, USB-Mouse:
Connect the supplied KVM CPU cable set to your
CPU (KVM.- Switch, etc.). Please ensure that the connection is tension-free!
•
DVI:
Connect the supplied DVI CPU cable set to your CPU (KVM.- Switch, etc.).
Please ensure that the connection is tension-free!
•
CATx Cable:
Recommended cable: S/UTP (CATx) according EIA/TIA 56A, TSB 36 or
Digital STP 17-03170. Four pairs AWG 24 connection according EIA/TIA 568A
(10BaseT). Use of cables from a higher category (Cat5e, Cat6, Cat7) is possible.
The use of unshielded CATx Cable is possible, because of the higher
electromagnetic noise/sensitivity the device class may not be reached
The use of flexible Cables (Patch cable) Type AWG26/7 is possible.
Because of the higher loss of the stranded cables, the maximum distance is
reduced to approx. half the value of solid cables.
A point to point connection is required. Having one or more patch panels in
the line is possible and allowed. Not allowed is a connection from the CATx
link interface (RJ45) to any other products, especially telecommunications
or network equipment.
•
Fiber Cable:
Two strands of fiber are required for Single-Head
devices, eight strands
for Quad-Head devices.
Please note that the allowed distance will depend on device type AND on
used fiber type.
•
Recommended cables:
ACSxxxxA-MM: Multimode type 50/125µ
allowed distance app. 400m (1,300ft)
ACSxxxxA-MM: Multimode type 62.5/125µ
allowed distance app. 200m (650ft)
ACSxxxxA-SM: Singlemode type 9/125µ
allowed distance app. 10km (32,750ft)
A point to point connection is required. Having one or more patch panels
in the line is possible and allowed. Not allowed is a connection from the
Fiber link interface (LC) to any other products, especially
telecommunications or network equipment.
Our experiences show, that Singlemode devices regularly work well on
Multimode Fibers where vice versa it will never do. In addition we found,
that Singlemode devices on Multimode fibers may extend the allowed
