SERVSWITCH™ BRAND PS/2 MICRO EXTENDER
3. Introduction
By using the Local and Remote Units that together make up the ServSwitch™
Brand CAT5 PS/2 Micro Extender, you can place your keyboard and mouse as far
as 300 meters (1000 ft.) from a PC’s CPU. The Local and Remote Units are
interconnected with a single industry-standard Category 5 UTP or STP 4-pair cable.
All keyboard and mouse signals are fully buffered to ensure consistent remote
operation of your PC.
The Extender operates automatically and works with all operating systems—no
software is required. Just connect the Units as described in
Chapter 5
and you’re
ready to work!
Because the Extender performs complete PS/2
®
keyboard and mouse emulation,
you can boot the PC without having a keyboard or mouse attached to it. Your PC
will boot even if the Extender’s Remote Unit is not powered or has no keyboard or
mouse connected to it.
