If your keyboard and mouse are IBM PS/2 compatible (which includes current

RS/6000 and SGIkeyboards and mice, as well as the Microsoft®IntelliMouse®),

and your monitor is a VGA, SVGA, XGA, or multisync type with an HD15 video

connector, first choose your Monitor/Keyboard/Mouse Adapter Cable (User

Cable):

• If your video resolution is not higher than 1024 x 768 pixels, and if your

equipment is within 20 ft. (6.1 m) of the Switch, you can use the standard

(non-coaxial) cable with the product code EHN054.

• If your video resolution is higher than 1024 x 768, or if your equipment is

farther than 20 ft. (6.1 m) from the Switch, you should use the coaxial

cable with the product code EHN283.

When you have the correct cable, hook it up to the ServSwitch and your

equipment this way, as shown in Figure 2:

• Plug the cable’s DB25 connector into the Switch’s MONITOR/

KEYBOARD/MOUSE port.

• Plug the mouse into the cable’s 6-pin mini-DIN connector with the

“MOUSE” label on it.

• Plug the keyboard into the cable’s unlabeled 6-pin mini-DIN connector.

• Plug the monitor into the cable’s HD15 connector.

• If your video resolution is not higher than 1024 x 768 pixels, and if your

equipment is within 20 ft. (6.1 m) of the Switch, you can use the standard

(non-coaxial) cable with the product code EHN052.

• If your video resolution is higher than 1024 x 768, or if your equipment is

farther than 20 ft. (6.1 m) from the Switch, you should use the coaxial

cable with the product code EHN270.

When you have the correct cable, hook it up to the ServSwitch and your

equipment this way, as shown in Figure 3:

• Plug the cable’s DB25 connector into the Switch’s MONITOR/

KEYBOARD/MOUSE port.

• Plug the mouse into the cable’s DB9 connector.

• Plug the keyboard into the cable’s 5-pin DIN connector.
