Installation
Refer to the following steps and diagram to set up your KVM switch installation.
Note:
1. The diagram below shows a B004-DUA4-HR-K installation. A B004-DUA2-HR-K installation will contain fewer
CPU ports, and will allow for the connection of a 7.1 channel surround-sound system.
2. Before making any connections, make sure that power to all devices being connected to the KVM switch is
turned off. Unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function.
1
Connect a monitor, USB keyboard and mouse, a microphone, and speakers to the console ports
on the back panel of the KVM switch.
Note:
The B004-DUA2-HR-K contains additional audio
jacks for the connection of a 7.1 channel surround-sound system.
2
Optional
– An additional set of speakers and a microphone can be connected to the ports on
the front panel of the unit.
Note:
The audio ports on the front panel have priority over those on
the back of the KVM.
3
Optional
– Connect your USB device(s) to the USB 2.0 hub port(s) on the front and back of the
KVM switch.
4
Connect the end of the KVM Cable Kit that includes the USB Type B Male connector to an
available set of computer ports on the back panel of the unit.
Note:
The B004-DUA2-HR-K
comes with additional 7.1 channel surround-sound cable kits. If connecting a 7.1 channel
surround-sound system, use these cable kits to connect to the remaining audio jacks.
5
Connect the other end of the KVM Cable Kit to the corresponding ports on the computer you
wish to add to the installation.
Note:
The B004-DUA2-HR-K comes with additional 7.1 channel
surround-sound cable kits. If connecting a 7.1 channel surround-sound system, use these cable
kits to connect to the remaining audio jacks.
6
Repeat steps 4 through 5 for each additional computer you are adding to the installation.
7
Connect the included power supply to the KVM switch, and then plug it into an appropriate
power source. To help protect your system from sudden transient increases and decreases in
electrical power, it is recommended that you plug your devices into a Tripp Lite surge suppressor,
line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
8
Turn on the power to all connected devices.
