Cables
Use of substandard cables may damage the connected devices or degrade overall
performance. For optimum signal integrity and to simplify the layout, we strongly
recommend that you use the following high quality CS Custom Cable sets:
Connector Purpose CS Cable Part Number
AT (5 pin DIN) Keyboard and Serial Mouse 2L-1001P/C (1.8m) or
2L-1003P/C (3m)
PS/2 (6 pin mini-DIN) Keyboard and Mouse
Cascading Master Views
Note: 1. If your computer uses a standard AT style keyboard socket you will
need to purchase a PS/2-to-AT keyboard adapter (Part No. 2A-106,
or any standard keyboard adapter).
2. If your computer uses a standard 9 pin serial port for the mouse, you
will need to purchase a special PS/2-to-Serial mouse adapter (Part No.
2A-105); a standard mouse adapter will probably not work).
3. Because of the wiring and pin assignments, you cannot use a
Serial-to-PS/2 adapter at the end that plugs into the switch.
Attempting to use a standard serial extender cable with adapters at
both ends will fail.
