Installation

Turn OFF power to all CPUs that will be connected to the NTI ST-nXm-U-HD switch before connecting or disconnecting any
cables.

1.  If using RS-232 Control see RS-232 section

 

for more information.

2.  Connect the monitors to the 15HD female connector ends of the VMTINT-xx  or  SMTINT-xx cables, depending upon what

type of devices will be connected (PS/2 or SUN).  See Fig. 1.

3.  Connect the keyboards to the purple 6 miniDIN female connector (PS/2) or orange 8 miniDIN female connector (SUN) of the

VMTINT-xx  or SMTINT-xx  (respectively).       If using a PS/2 mouse, connect it to the green 6 miniDIN female connector on
the VMTINT-xx cable.    See Fig. 1.   Insure that the monitors and related keyboards are connected to the same interface
cables.

4.  Connect the high density male connector end of the cable to a USER x port on the ST-nXm-U-HD switch.

NOTE:  If it is desired for only a monitor to be connected to a user port, the device cable end(s) of the VMTINT-xx /
SMTINT-xx does not need to be connected to anything

.

                                               Figure 1- Connect devices to switch using interface cables

5. 

For each CPU:

 Connect a VMTINT-xx-MM (PS/2 CPU) or SMTINT-xx-MM (SUN CPU) or MMTINT-xx-MM (MAC CPU) cable

to the devices port(s) and video port of the CPU as shown in Fig. 2.

NOTE:   If the CPU is a SUN type with 13W3 video connector,  use an NTI 13W3M-15HDF adapter to connect the SMTINT-
xx-MM cable to the CPU.

NOTE: If the CPU only has a serial port for mouse connection (via a com port), a VOPEX-IM9D must be used to convert the
signal from the serial port to PS/2 port.  Do not use a 9D-to-6mD adapter, it will not work.

NOTE: For USB SUN CPUs,  a USB-SUN adapter and a USB-AB-Xm cable must be used to connect the SMTINT-xx-MM
cable to the CPU.  See Fig. 2.

6.  Connect the high density end of each cable to a CPU x port on the ST-nXm-U-HD switch.  See Fig. 2.
