System Requirements
VGA, SVGA or Multisync monitor capable of the highest resolution that you will be using on any computer
in the installation
PS/2 keyboard and mouse
Note: You must use the same brand and model of mouse on both the local and remote units.
Requirements for Cables
For optimum signal integrity and to simplify the layout, we strongly recommend that you use high quality PS/2 and
VGA cables such as LINDY Combined 3-in-1 KVM cables.
Category 5 cable is the minimum required to connect the local and remote KVM EXTENDER LITE units. Using
lower quality cable will result in a degraded video signal.
UTP, STP, FTP or PIMF, CAT5 or higher cable may be used.
