Pre-Configuration

Where to place the Console:
The enclosure of the Console is designed for rack-mount configuration in a standard
19-inch server rack. Rack-mount hardware is included for a sturdy rack installation.
Consider the following when deciding where to place the
Console:
• the depth of your rack or enclosure
• the location of your servers in relation to your console
• how far your servers extend forward from your front rack rails
• the lengths of the cables you use to connect your servers to the Console
• whether you intend to daisy-chain the Console with other KVM switches
(you will need to set the "BANK DIP" switch before mounting—refer to page 13)
Cable-Distance Requirements
For best video performance, we recommend that the cable length from the Console to
your servers be limited to 25 feet (8m) for PS/2 connections, and 12 feet (4m) for USB
connections. Beyond that length, the probability of video degradation increases.
Warning: Avoid placing cables near fluorescent lights, air-conditioning
equipment, or machines that create electrical noise (e.g., vacuum cleaners)
Consider the following before mounting the Console:
a)
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature—If installed in a closed or multi-unit
rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, you should consider installing
the equipment in an environment compatible with the rack manufacturer's
maximum-rate ambient temperature.
b)
Reduced Airflow—Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not
compromised.
c)
Mechanical Loading—Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such
that hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
d)
Reliable Grounding—Grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other
than direct connections to the branch circuit.
