To Connect a KVM Expander to the Primary
KVM/net

See “Installing the AlterPath KVM Expander” on page 119 for background
information on the KVM Expander.

1. Power off all KVM hardware and connected devices.

2. Connect one end of a CAT5 cable to a KVM port on the primary KVM/net.

3. Connect the other end of the CAT5 cable to the User A and or the User B

port on the secondary KVM Expander.

Note: To enable two concurrent KVM connections to ports on the KVM Expander,

connect two CAT5 cables to two ports on the KVM/net. Connect one CAT5
cable to the User A port and the other CAT5 cable to the User B port on the
KVM Expander.

4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each secondary KVM Expander to be

connected to the primary KVM/net.
