This section provides complete basic instructions for the hardware setup of a single
ServSwitch. For an illustrated example of the elements of a basic setup, see Figure
3-1 on the previous page.

ACKMOUNTING
(O
PTIONAL
)
If you want to mount the ServSwitch in a 19" rack, you will need a ServSwitch
Rackmounting Kit (our product code SW727 for the 2- and 4-port models). The
ServSwitch is pre-drilled to accept the kit’s rackmounting screws. If you want to
mount the Switch in a 23" or 24" rack, call Black Box for a special quote on a 23" or
24" kit.

A Monitor/Keyboard/Mouse (MKM) Adapter Cable connects your monitor,
keyboard, and mouse to the ServSwitch. Because various styles of electrical
connectors are used by different classes of equipment, we supply this cable in
various styles to match (see
Appendix B ). This cable also comes in the different
lengths supported by different applications (see Section 4.1.3 and Appendix B ).
CAUTION
Make sure that the monitor, keyboard, and mouse you plan to use can
meet the demands of your application. See Section 4.1. Also, note that
the ServSwitch does not support dongles at the time of this writing.
1. After you verify that the ServSwitch is turned OFF, plug the DB25 male
connector of the user cable into the port labeled
MONITOR/KEYBOARD/MOUSE on the ServSwitch’s rear panel.
2. Plug the cables from your shared monitor, keyboard, and mouse into the
corresponding connectors on the other ends of the user cable.

CPU Adapter Cables run from the ServSwitch to the keyboard port, mouse port,
and video port of each CPU you want to directly attach to it. Different types of this
cable fit the connectors on different computers (see
Appendix B ). This cable also
comes in the different lengths supported by different applications (see Section
4.1.3
).
