Feature Overview

Control multiple dual-head VGA/USB computers from one keyboard and mouse,

and two monitors.

Video Resolution

The SOHO KVM Switch is able to support video resolutions of up to 2048x1536, so

you can use the latest in video display technology for all your computers.

Flash Upgrade

With the firmware-upgrade feature, your investment in the KVM Switch is further

ensured and its lifetime value is maximized. You don’t have to change your KVM

Switch to solve compatibility problems since you can solve them with easy

firmware upgrades. A special upgrade cable is not needed; you can use the same

KVM cable that connects your computer.

Built-In USB 2.0 Hub

The SOHO KVM Switch features a built-in Hi-Speed USB 2.0 hub, so you can

share two USB peripheral devices, such as a printer, with all your computers. There

are two USB ports on the KVM Switch. One port is located on the back and the

other is located on the front for easier access.

Speaker/Microphone Support

The SOHO KVM Switch allows you to share one set of speakers and one

microphone with all your computers, so you won’t need to unplug and reconnect

your speakers and microphone every time you switch access from one computer

to the next.

Direct-Access Port Selectors

Direct-access port selectors, conveniently located on the front face of the SOHO

KVM Switch, allow you to easily switch access from one computer to the next. You

can change the KVM port or the audio/mic using these buttons.

Cables

All the required cables are 6 feet in length and are included in the box for easier

installation. The cables are also smaller and easier to manage.

LED Display

There are two LEDs on each button. One indicates which port the KVM is on and

the other indicates which port the audio/mic is on.

Installing the KVM Switch

Pre-Configuration

Where to Place the KVM Switch

The compact size of the KVM Switch makes it perfect for desktop placement.

Consider the following when deciding where to place the KVM Switch: whether

or not you intend to use the direct-access port selectors; the length of the cables

attached to your keyboard, mouse, and monitor; the location of your CPUs from

your console; and the length of the cables you use to connect your computers to

the KVM Switch.

Cautions and Warnings

Avoid having cables near fluorescent lights, air-conditioning equipment, or

machines that create electrical noise (e.g., vacuum cleaners).

Single-Switch Installation

This section provides complete instructions for the hardware setup of a single KVM

Switch. (F1DH102L or F1DH104L)

Important Note: Before attempting to connect anything to the KVM Switch or

into your computer(s), make sure that everything is powered off. Plugging and

unplugging cables while computers are powered on may cause irreversible damage

to the computers and KVM Switch. Belkin will not be responsible for damage

caused by these actions.

For each dual-head VGA/USB computer to be connected to the Switch, one

dual-head VGA/USB cable is necessary.

Cables are available in longer lengths; see part numbers below:

10 ft. Cable – F1D9105-10

15 ft. Cable – F1D9105-15
