Before installation, please make sure all of peripherals and computers have been turned off. This
example of installation is based on 8 port Rack Mount PS/2 IP-KVM switch and you also can think that

installation procedure. In order to connect the PS/2 IP-KVM switch to the host system, please perform
the following steps:
Step 1
Attach the power supply to the KVM unit and plug the other end into an electrical receptacle.

mountable on 19” rack. When mounting to a rack, attach the included brackets to the sides of the PS/2
IP-KVM switch. Take note of the length of your cables so that your computers, KVM Switch, keyboard,
