Make sure that the ServSwitch Duo/Quadro is unplugged and powered down. If
possible, turn off and unplug all of the devices that you want to attach to it. (If you
have to “hot-plug” any powered computers into the Duo/Quadro, see
Section 5.8 .)
Connect your local user equipment (keyboards, PS/2 mice, and monitors) to the
appropriate user-port (“control-port”) connectors on the Duo’s/Quadro’s rear
panel. If you have had to place the Duo/Quadro farther from the user equipment
than the equipment’s native cables will reach—up to an additional distance of
30 ft. (9 m)—you can plug the native cables into Premium KVM User Cable. If you
need to place
one set (Duo) or two sets (Quadro) of user equipment farther away
than that, make them remote user stations and connect them to user port #1 on
the Duo or user ports #1 and #3 of the Quadro through a ServSwitch Duo
Extender as described in
Section 3.4.2
. If you need to place more sets of user
equipment than that farther away than their native cables can reach, you’ll also
need to use our other ServSwitch brand KVM extenders to connect the additional
sets to user ports #2 and/or #4.
Next, connect each computer CPU to the Duo/Quadro by running cabling from
the CPU’s keyboard, mouse, and video ports to the matching connectors in one of
the Duo’s/Quadro’s “CPU ports.” This cabling can be either separate male-to-male
keyboard-, mouse-, and video-extension cables, or our three-in-one Premium KVM
CPU Cable. Video quality will be at its highest if you can keep this cabling short
(no longer than 10 ft. [3 m] if possible), but Premium KVM CPU Cable will work
at distances up to 100 ft. (30 m). If you need to run farther than 100 ft. (30 m) to a
CPU, you’ll need to use one of our ServSwitch brand KVM extenders.
A complete system using a single Duo is shown in Figure 3-1.
