OVERVIEW
EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
Cables:
To connect to the MATRIX2, an OmniView All-in-One MATRIX Series
KVM Cable is necessary. Video resolution support of up to
2048x1536@85Hz requires use of a 75-Ohm, coaxial VGA cable to
preserve signal integrity. VGA cables must have HDDB15 female-to-
HDDB15 male connectors.
Belkin highly recommends that you use OmniView All-In-One MATRIX
Series KVM Cables. These cables offer the highest quality possible to
ensure optimal data transmission. The MATRIX Series KVM Cables
feature micro-cable construction and are molded together for a neat
and organized setup. PC99 color-coded connectors are included for
easy identification and connection. The MATRIX Series KVM Cables
include an industry-standard, 14-pin, coaxial VGA cable; nickel-plated
connectors for high-resolution applications; double-shielded cabling to
reduce EMI/RFI interference; strain-relief construction for added
durability; and ferrite bead for noise immunity. They are available in
both USB and PS/2 connector types. The following cables are
recommended for your MATRIX2:
OmniView All-In-One MATRIX Series
F1D9300-XX (PS/2 Style)
F1D9301-XX (USB Style)
OmniView MATRIX2 Series Daisy-Chain
F1D9302-XX (Daisy-Chain Cable)
(-XX denotes length in feet)
