Appendix A. Cable and connector
specifications
IMPORTANT NOTE
The maximum cable lengths supported vary widely between devices and
cables. It may be possible to use cables that are longer than those specified
below with certain PCs and peripherals but this cannot be guaranteed. If you
experience problems try using shorter cables.
A1. Keyboard, monitor and mouse to AdderView MATRIX
Cable specification:
All of the shared devices plug directly into the relevant ports at the rear of the
AdderView. If you use an AT style keyboard you will need an AT (5 pin DIN female)
to PS/2 (6 pin mini-DIN male) converter. Keyboard, monitor and mouse extension
cables can be used to increase the distance from AdderView up to 10m. Most
keyboards and mice will also operate at distances of 20 metres.
A2. AdderView MATRIX to PCs 1 to 16
Cable specifications:
Video
- 15 pin high density male D connector to 15 pin high density male D
connector wired as a standard VGA PC to monitor cable. There are two types
commonly available. The best type cables which will give excellent quality are
constructed with coaxial cable cores. Cheaper ‘data’ cables are often used, but can
degrade video quality if used over longer distances. Avoid using 'data' cables longer
than 2 metres unless the video quality is not important. Good quality coaxial video
cables may be run at distances up to 30 metres with acceptable video quality. In a
cascaded application it is advisable to keep the total cable run from computer to
KVM no more than 30 metres.
Keyboard and PS/2 mice
- 6 pin mini-DIN male connector to 6 pin mini-DIN male
connector with all lines connected straight through (1-1,2-2 etc.). If the PC has a 5-
pin DIN AT style keyboard connector you will need a PS/2 to AT keyboard adapter
