6. Rackmount Installation
Follow all instructions in the safety section before rackmounting. Make sure to write down the MAC Address and Device Number from the bottom of
the unit before rackmounting, as they will be useful when nding the IP address assigned by the DHCP server. Attach the included mounting brackets
to the sides of the KVM switch using the included hardware, and then mount the KVM into your rack using user-supplied screws.
7. Connection (Single KVM Switch)
Connecting Computers to the KVM Switch
Connect each computer to the KVM switch using a Tripp Lite
B078-101-PS2* or B078-101-USB* Server Interface Unit (SIU),
and a Cat5e Patch Cable.
*Available Separately from Tripp Lite.
Connecting Server Interface Units (SIUs) to the
KVM Switch
Server Interface Units (SIU) draw their power from the connected
computer. In the case of the PS/2 Server Interface Unit (model #
B078-101-PS2), the power is drawn from the keyboard port. In the case
of the USB Server Interface Unit (model # B078-101-USB), the power is
drawn from the USB port. When connected and receiveing power, the green
LED on the SIU will illuminate. When the SIU is connected to the active port
on the KVM, the orange LED will illuminate.
Connecting a PS/2 Server Interface Unit (SIU)
(Model # B078-101-PS/2)
1. Shut down the computer being connected to the SIU.
2. Connect the SIU’s VGA connector to the computer’s VGA port.
3. Connect the SIU’s PS/2 keyboard connector to the computer’s PS/2
keyboard port.
4. Connect the SIU’s PS/2 mouse connector to the computer’s PS/2
mouse port.
5. Connect one end of a Cat5e patch cable to the SIU’s RJ45 port and
the other end to the KVM switch’s RJ45 port. (Note: the Cat5e cable
should be no longer than 100 ft.)
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each additional PS/2 computer/server
you are connecting to the KVM switch.
Connecting a USB Server Interface Unit (SIU)
(Model # B078-101-USB)
1. Connect the SIU’s VGA connector to the computer’s VGA port.
2. Connect the SIU’s USB connector to the computer’s USB port.
3. Connect one end of a Cat5e patch cable to the SIU’s RJ45 port and
the other end to the KVM switch’s RJ45 port. (Note: the Cat5e cable
should be no longer than 100 ft.)
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each additional USB computer/server
you are connecting to the KVM switch.
