Thank you for purchasing the Two-Console PS/2 KVM switch.The Two-Console PS/2 KVM
switch can save your MONEY, TIME, SPACE, EQUIPMENT and POWER.
The Two-Console switch controls multiple computers from one Keyboard, Mouse and VGA
Monitor with complete keyboard and mouse emulation for simultaneous computer boot-up. It
has various features such as one local console port and one remote console up to 500-feet
away using a CAT5 console port. Other features include 19” Rack Mount Size, Daisy Chain up
to 8 units, On Screen Display Menu, Password security, searching computer server name, Hot
key Control, Push Button and Auto Scan Control.
The CAT5 console port extends COMPUTER/SERVER up to 500 feet away from your control-
ling keyboard, mouse and VGA monitor. A
transmitter
is built into the KVM switch. It synthe-
sizes the PS/2 keyboard signal, PS/2 mouse signal and VGA monitor signal, and allows trans-
mission over long distances using standard Ethernet CAT5 cable. The
Cat5 Remote Console
Receiver
decodes the synthetic signal and returns it back to PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse and
VGA monitor signals. In addition, the
Cat5 Remote Console Receiver
does not require a dedi-
cated computer since it has an extra computer port which is built-in the receiver.
The
Cat5 Remote Console Receiver
is a good solution for those noisy server room environ-
ments where it is unsuitable for people to work in for sustained periods of time. It facilitates
effective management on dispersed computers through one dedicated central room, control
room, demonstration room, meeting room, or at your desk.CAT5 STP cable (Shielded Twisted
Pair)/ UTP cable (Unshielded Twisted Pair) or enhanced cable like CAT5E/CAT6 cable is widely
available because of LAN network popularity.In addition,
KVM-CAT5 transmitter
uses the same
existing network construction to transfer the local console signal to remote side.
The
Cat5 Remote Console Receiver
allows you to move your console, i.e. Keyboard, Mouse
and VGA monitor, to a suitable place for convenient centralized control.You just need to install a
CAT5 remote console receiver at the remote side you would like to locate to.It saves on your
cable layout and cable installation cost.
The two-console KVM switch is also daisy chained with the single console KVM switch. It is
highly recommended to place the two-console KVM switch at master bank and the single KVM
switch at slave banks.
