KE6900ST Point-to-Point Installation
The KE6900ST DVI KVM over IP Extender Lite is a cost-saving alternative
for installations with transmitters that don’t need a local console or audio
transmission but want the connectivity features of advanced KE models.
Setting up the KE6900ST system in a point-to-point configuration is simply a
matter of plugging in the cables. Make sure that all equipment is powered off.
Refer to the installation diagrams on the next page and do the following:
1. Connect the USB DVI-D KVM cable (provided with this package) to the
USB and DVI-D ports on the front of the KE6900ST.
2. Connect the other end of the USB DVI-D KVM cable to USB and DVI
video ports on the computer.
3. For control of serial devices, connect the RS-232 serial port on the
KE6900ST to a serial port on the computer.
4. Plug the power adapter (provided with this package) into an AC source,
and plug the other end into the KE6900ST’s power jack.
5. Connect a Cat 5e/6 cable to the KE6900ST’s LAN port.
6. Connect the other end of the Cat 5e/6 cable to the KE69x0R’s* LAN port.
7. On the receiver side, plug the mouse, keyboard, and DVI monitor into the
ports on the console section of the KE69x0R.*
8. Plug the second power adapter into an AC source, and plug the other end
into the KE69x0R’s power jack.
9. Power on the computer.
Note: KE69x0R units are required and sold separately.
Setting up a LAN Installation
Setting up the KE6900ST on a network allows point-to-point, point-to-
multipoint, and multipoint-to-multipoint computer to console operation by
connecting multiple KE69x0 devices on the same TCP/IP LAN. To set up a
LAN installation, simply connect the Cat 5e/6 cable (in step 5 above) to the
network instead of directly between two KE69x0 devices and see KE6900 /
KE6940 LAN Installation, page 121 for details.
