Installation

Pre-Configuration

Where to Place the KVM Switch

The OmniView E Series KVM Switch is designed to sit on top of your desktop.

Where you place the KVM Switch will be based on the location of your CPUs and

the length of your cables.

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

• whether or not you intend to use the direct-access port selectors

• the lengths of the cables attached to your keyboard, monitor, and mouse

• the location of your computers in relation to your console

• the lengths of the cables you use to connect your computers to the KVM Switch

Cable-Distance Requirements:

For PS/2 Computers:

VGA signals transmit best up to 25 feet (7.6m). Beyond that length, the

probability of video degradation increases. For this reason, Belkin recommends

that the length of the cables between the KVM Switch and the connected

computers does not exceed 25 feet (7.6m).

Note: The Belkin OmniView CAT5 Extender (F1D084vea2) may be used to extend

your console (keyboard, mouse, and monitor) by up to 300 feet (91m).

Cautions and Warnings!

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

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

Installation Guide

You are now ready to begin installation of your KVM Switch. The following

sections (pages 8–10) provide complete instructions for the hardware setup.

Before attempting to connect anything to the E Series KVM Switch or your

computers, ensure that everything is powered off. Plugging and unplugging cables

while computers are powered on may cause irreversible damage of the computers

and/or the KVM Switch. Belkin is not responsible for damage caused in this way.
