SERVSWITCH BRAND CAT5 KVM EXTENDER FOR SUN
3. Check the interconnect cable between the extender’s Local and Remote
Units. Is it intact along its length and securely connected at both ends? And is
it wired correctly? (Compare its wiring with that shown in Appendix A.)
4. Try powering the Remote Unit OFF and then ON again.
The mouse is behaving erratically.
1. Reset the mouse as described in Section 7.2.
2. Quit and restart the application.
3. Reboot the Sun CPU.

Neither the keyboard nor the mouse operates, or both have locked up.
1. If they have both locked up, first try resetting the keyboard and mouse as
described in Section 7.2.
2. Reset the CPU and try again.
3. If the problem is happening at the remote station, cycle power to the Remote
Unit.

I’m having problems using an older Sun monitor and/or CPU with 13W3 connectors.
Are you using third-party Sun 13W3 video adapters? If these don’t emulate the
video “ID bits” properly, the system might not work correctly. Please call Black Box
Technical Support.
The picture is not sharp, or is badly smeared.
1. If your Sun CPU is outputting video at the standard Sun resolution (1152 x
900), and you’ve run CAT5 cable farther than 430 ft. (131.1 m) between your
Local and Remote Units, your video will be degraded. Either reduce the
distance or reduce the resolution. If you’ve run the CAT5 cable farther than
260 ft. (79.2 m) at this resolution, the Remote Unit’s cable-length jumpers
should be in the “A” setting—see Section 5.1.
2. The video compensation might not be set correctly. See Section 6.4.
3. Check the interconnect cable between the extender’s Local and Remote
Units. Is it solid-core cable, rated as Category 5? (It might be possible to use
CAT5e at distances up to 400 ft. [121.9 m], but video might degrade if it’s run
across lengths of CAT5e greater than that.) Is the cable intact along its length
and securely connected at both ends? And is it wired correctly? (Compare the
cable’s specs with those listed in Section 4.2.4 and its wiring with that shown
in Appendix A.)
