Keyboards with integrated smartcard readers
(supported only on enhanced models)
A combined keyboard/smartcard reader (and smartcards), used with enhanced
models of the switch (AVSC1102-XX and AVSC1104-XX), must be approved
against the security policy of your organization. The combined keyboard/
smartcard reader must be plugged directly into the switch’s USB card reader
port with no adapters or converters.
During the life of the product, the user should make periodic checks to ensure
that the combined keyboard/smartcard reader remains directly connected into
the switch’s USB smartcard port.
The combined keyboard/smartcard reader is powered down and reset at every
switchover to clear stored states.
The keyboard data and smartcard data are separated from each other as soon as
they enter the switch. The keyboard data is then sent uni-directionally through
the switch in the same way that data from a simple keyboard is processed. Only
the smartcard data is handled by the smartcard circuit.

functional on these models.
