Note: Allow at least 2 in. (5 cm) on each side for proper ventilation, and at least 5 in. (12.7 cm) at the back for the power cord and cable clearance.
Attach Cables
- Plug the HDMI and USB Type-B connectors of a KVM cable into the KVM ports located in the CPU section on the rear of the unit.
- Plug the USB Type-A and HDMI connectors of the KVM cable into their respective ports of a computer.
- If installing an external console, plug your keyboard, mouse and monitor into their respective ports on the console section of the KVM.
- Plug one end of the power cord into the KVM’s power socket, then plug the other end into a power source.
- Power up the KVM installation.
- Turn on the power to the KVM.
