SECURITY FEATURES

ANTI-TAMPER SWITCHES

Each model is equipped with internal Anti-Tamper switches, which sense attempts to open the device enclosure. Once the

system identies such an attempt, all the front panel LED’s will flash rapidly and the unit will become useless by shutting off

connection with all attached PCs and peripherals disabling any functionality.

TAMPER-EVIDENT SEAL

The enclosure of the unit is protected with a tamper-evident seal to provide a visual evidence if the unit has been opened.

PROTECTED FIRMWARE

The controller of the unit has a special protection feature that prevents reprogramming or reading the rmware.

HIGH ISOLATION ON USB CHANNELS

Opto-isolators are used in the unit to keep USB data paths electrically isolated from each other, providing high isolation and

preventing data leakage between ports.

SECURE EDID EMULATION

The unit prevents unwanted and unsecure data to be transmitted through the DDC lines by means of secure EDID

learning and emulation.

USER GUIDE

INSTALLATION (Continued)

Dual-Head Units:

1. Ensure that power is turned off or disconnected from the unit and the computers.

2. Use DVI cables to connect the DVI output ports of each computer to the corresponding DVI-I IN ports of the unit. For

example, if using SS8P-DH-DVI-UCAC the 2 DVI ports of one computer must all be connected to one channel.

The DVI-I IN connectors that belong to the same channel are arranged vertically.

3. Use a USB cable (Type-A to Type-B) to connect a USB port on each computer to the respective USB ports of the unit.

4. Optionally connect a stereo audio cable (3.5mm on both ends) to connect the audio output of the computer to the

AUDIO IN ports of the unit.

5. Connect the monitors to the DVI-I OUT console ports of the unit using DVI cables.

The DVI-I IN ports on one row will be switched to the DVI-I OUT of the same row.

6. Connect a USB keyboard and mouse in the two USB console ports.

7. Optionally connect stereo speakers to the AUDIO OUT port of the unit.

8. Optionally connect CAC (smart card reader) to the CAC port in the user console interface.

9. Power on the Secure KVM Switch by connecting a 12VDC power supply to the power connector, and then turn on all

the computers.

Note: VGA-to-DVI adapter must be used if video input sources are analog. Also, if the monitors connected to the outputs

are dual-link DVI monitors, then DVI-I cables must be used from each computer.

Note: The computer connected to port 1 will always be selected by default after power up.

INSTALLATION (Continued)

EDID Learn:

The Secure KVM Switch is designed to learn the connected monitor’s EDID upon power up. In the event of connecting a new monitor

to the Secure KVM Switch, a power recycle is required.

The Secure KVM Switch will indicate to the user the EDID learn process by flashing the front panel’s LEDs. Port one green and push

button blue LEDs will both begin to flash for about 10 seconds. When the LEDs stop flashing, the EDID learn process is done.

If the Secure KVM Switch has more than one video board (such as dual-head and quad-head models), then the unit will continue to

learn the EDIDs of the connected monitors and indicate the progress of the process by flash-ing the next port selection green and

push button blue LEDs respectively.

The monitor must be connected to the video output connector located in the console space at the back of the Secure KVM Switch

during the EDID learn process.

If the read EDID from the connected monitor is identical to the current stored EDID in the Secure KVM Switch then the EDID learn

function will be skipped.

USER GUIDE

SINGLE-HEAD MODE SECURE KM SWITCHING

In addition to traditional channel switching by buttons located on the front panel, Secure KM Switch also supports cursor

control of selected channels. This technology allows seamless switching between computers by moving the mouse

cursor from one display to another. Users can effortlessly switch computers for faster productivity.

1. KM functionality for KVM devices is only available once the device has been put into KM mode,

refer to admin tool guide for detail.

2. When the device is placed into KM mode, it will behave identically to the KM models of the product.

3. The major difference when the device is placed into KM mode is that cursor control of selected channels is available

as an additional method to switch the connected computer.

4. Figure 10-1 below shows how this functionality works.

5. For more information about how to congure this functionality, refer to the KM guide.
