4.1 The Complete Package
These items should be included with your ServSwitch™ Brand CAT5 PS/2 Micro
Extender package (please contact Black Box right away if any are missing or
damaged):
• (1) Extender Local Unit.
• (1) Extender Remote Unit.
• (1) 5-VDC 1-amp power-supply transformer and output cord.
• (1) Power-supply input cord suitable for your country or region.
• (2) 6-ft. (1.8-m) PS/2 extension cables with 6-pin mini-DIN connectors to
connect your PC CPU to the Extender. (If your PC has 5-pin DIN keyboard
connectors, see the start of

• (1) Copy of this manual.
4.2 The Cables You’ll Need
If you are using the ServSwitch™ Brand CAT5 PS/2 Micro Extender to get greater
distance between a CPU and a PS/2 keyboard and mouse, your 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 Extender to get greater distance between a ServSwitch family
KVM switch and a CPU or a keyboard/mouse user station, 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
.
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.
• 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 Local or Remote Unit: A keyboard adapter such as product code FA212.
