Overview
For convenience and flexibility using a PS/2 interface, the ACS1208A /
ACS1216A's design utilizes KVM adapter cables that serve as intermediaries
between the KVM switch and the connected computers.
A separate KVM adapter cable is required for each computer connection. The
KVM adapter cables are listed in the Cables section on page 4. Consult your
dealer to find out which KVM adapter cables best fit your needs.
