KVM Switch unit draws the power source from power adapter and all
PC’s PS2 port. Some PC’s PS2 port can support enough power for the
switch, but some PC’s PS2 port (like laptop, notebook computer…etc.)
is unable to supply enough power for the switch. In order to make sure
the system can work steadily, please do not set power switch to off
state or remove the power adapter from the switch.
Although the PCs connected to KVM Switch unit are able to support
enough power to the stand alone switch, KVM Switch unit still needs a
power adapter for daisy chain more banks.
