CHAPTER 5: Installation
CAUTION!
One of the most common errors in cabling the Extender is to attach
fiber strands “1” and “2” to the Remote Module backwards (strand 1
to port 2, strand 2 to port 1). Notice that while the fiber ports on the
Local Module are arranged in left-to-right order as “R,” “G,” “B,” “1,”
and “2,” the ports on the Remote Module are arranged in the order
“R,” “G,” “B,” “2,” and “1”.
5.5 Connecting Power to the Local and Remote Modules
The ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender comes with a pair of identical
autosensing power supplies. Take these steps to attach them to your Extender’s
Local and Remote Modules:
1. Attach input cords to the IEC 320 male power inlets on the two power
supplies’ transformers. (This cord will be included for North American
customers; other customers might have to get a cord appropriate for their
local outlets.)
2. Attach the transformers’ output cords to the 6-pin DIN connectors on the
Local and Remote Modules (the connectors labeled “Power”).
3. Plug the input cords into a standard utility-power (mains) outlet providing
between 100 and 240 volts of AC power.
The Extender units will begin operating immediately; they don’t have ON/OFF
switches.
5.6 Powering Up the Rest of the System
To power up the other devices attached to the Extender units, take these steps:
1. Plug in and turn ON the monitor.
2. Plug in and turn ON the CPU. It should boot normally.
This completes the installation of your ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender
system. It should be ready for continuous operation.
