To connect computers with serial mouse ports and PC/AT style keyboard ports,
you’ll need adapters, as shown in Figure 3-2 below . Refer to the Appendix for
cable guidelines.
Figure 3-2. Using adapters to connect computers with serial mouse ports or
PC/AT keyboard ports.
3.4 Connecting Power
Once you’ve installed your ServSwitch Duo and attached your equipment to it, you
can plug its power supply into the jack on the back of the Switch, then attach the
input cord to the power-supply transformer’s IEC 320 inlet, then plug the input
cord into utility (mains) power. (Always apply power to the ServSwitch Duo first,
then power on the monitor and each of the computers; if you power up the
computers before the Switch, the computers might not recognize the presence
of the mouse or keyboard.) The Switch should start operating immediately; it has
no ON/OFF switch.
