Hardware Setup
Overview
For convenience and flexibility that allows mixing multiple platforms, the
CS19208 / CS19216 design utilizes custom USB DisplayPort KVM cables that
serve as intermediaries between the switch and the connected computers (refer
to the installation diagram on page 18).
A separate custom USB DisplayPort KVM cable is required for each computer
connection. The custom KVM cables are listed under
Cables , on page 5.
Consult your dealer to find out which custom KVM cables best fit your needs.
Installation Types
The CS19208 / CS19216 offers two types of installation – 1) standalone/
cascade; and 2) multi-display – that require different cabling setups. Therefore,
the functions of both types are not available in one installation. See the
following sections in this chapter for details about the different cabling
requirements.
