A3. LINDY Dual/Quad PRO to PCs 1 to 16
Cable specifications:
Video - 15 pin high density male D connector to 15 pin high density male D
connector wired as a standard VGA PC to monitor cable. There are two types
commonly available. The best type of cables which will give excellent quality are
constructed with coaxial cable cores. Cheaper ‘data’ cables are often used, but can
degrade video quality if used over longer distances. Avoid using 'data' cables longer
than 2 metres unless the video quality is not important. Good quality coaxial video
cables may be run at distances up to 30 metres with acceptable video quality. In a
cascaded application it is advisable to keep the total cable run from computer to
KVM no more than 30 metres.
Keyboard and PS/2 mice - 6 pin mini-DIN male connector to 6 pin mini-DIN male
connector with all lines connected straight through (1-1,2-2 etc.). If the PC has a 5-
pin DIN AT style keyboard connector you will need a PS/2 to AT keyboard adapter
6-pin mini-DIN female to 5-pin DIN male (readily available). Cables should be no
longer than 30 metres.
RS232 serial mice - these require a special converter to connect the RS232 lines
present on the LINDY Dual/Quad PRO mouse ports to the RS232 port on a PC.
Cables should be no longer than 30 metres.
