Where to Place the KVM Switch

The compact size of the KVM Switch makes it perfect for desktop
placement. Consider the following when deciding where to place the KVM
Switch: whether or not you intend to use the direct-access port selectors;
the length of the cables attached to your keyboard, mouse, and monitor;
the location of your CPUs from your Console; and the length of the cables
you will use to connect your computers to the KVM Switch.

Cable Distance Requirements

USB signals are the strongest when transmitted up to 15 feet between
the KVM Switch and the CPU. Beyond 15 feet, probability of signal
degradation increases, which can cause the device to fail.

Cautions and Warnings

Avoid having cables near fluorescent lights, air conditioning equipment, or
machines that create electrical noise (e.g., vacuum cleaners).
