4.1 The Server Access Modules (SAMs)
Each computer/server is directly connected to the ServReach KVMultiport via the appropriate Server Access Module using CAT5
cable in a star configuration. No external power is needed at the remote SAMs. The SAMs draw their power from the computer’s
keyboard port (SAM PS/2, Sun) or from the USB port (SAM USB). Figures 4-2 and 4-3 illustrate the SAM PS/2 and SAM USB.
