KE6900AiT / KE6940AiT Point-to-Point Installation
Setting up the KE6940AiT system in a point-to-point configuration is simply a
matter of plugging in the cables. Since this is a transmitter-receiver setup, the
below steps are demonstrated using a KE6940AR.
Note: In a point-to-point configuration, no administrator setup is required.
It is highly recommended to mount the AiT unit(s) onto a system rack
or wall, and avoid a stacked setup to ensure proper ventilation.
Make sure that all equipment is powered off. Refer to the installation diagrams
on the next two pages and do the following:
1. (Optional) Connect a grounding wire between the extenders’ grounding
terminal and a suitable grounded object.
2. On the transmitter side, plug the mouse, keyboard, DVI monitor(s), and
serial devices into the ports on the console section of the transmitter
(KE6900AiT/KE6940AiT).
3. Connect the KVM cable (DVI-D, USB, audio) and the DVI-D cable
(KE6940AiT only) provided into the KVM ports on the front of the
transmitter.
4. Connect the other end of the KVM cable (DVI-D, USB, audio) and the
DVI-D cable (KE6940AiT only) into the keyboard, video, mouse, speaker,
and microphone ports on the computer.
5. For control of serial devices, connect the RS-232 port on the front of the
transmitter to a serial port on the computer.
6. Plug the mouse, keyboard, DVI monitor(s), and serial devices into the
ports on the console section of the receiver (KE6940AR is used as the
example here)

7. Connect a Cat 5e/6 cable to the transmitter’s LAN port.
8. Connect the other end of the Cat 5e/6 cable to the receiver’s LAN port.
9. To allow access to the web interface or CCVSR recording, use an Ethernet
cable to connect the unit’s Ethernet port to a network switch.
10. Instead of connecting through the LAN ports, you can choose to connect
the extenders through the SFP slots. To do so, plug SFP modules into the
transmitter and receiver’s SFP slots, then connect each end of Gigabit
Ethernet (GbE) optical fiber between the SFP modules
