Introduction Introduction The XTENDEX Series ST-C5KVM-600 PS/2 KVM Extender is designed to enable one PS/2 CPU to be controlled by two users, one local and one remote. The remote user can be located as much as 600 feet away from a PS/2 CPU via Category 5 shielded twisted-pair cable. The local user will be located near the PS/2 CPU. The XTENDEX Series ST-C5KVM-600 PS/2 KVM Extender is extremely simple to install and has been thoroughly tested to insure reliable performance.

Same mice, same keyboards, etc. • In order for two users to share a PS/2 CPU, the user in control must pause for at least 3 seconds before another user can take control. After the 3 second pause, either user can take control of the CPU.

The Remote Unit 1. Position the Remote Unit such that the CAT5 cable, the monitor cable, device cables, and the AC adapter power connector can each reach the Remote Unit comfortably. 2. Connect the monitor cable to the female 15HD video connector on the Remote Unit. 3. Connect the device(s) to the Remote Unit (see Fig. 3). a. Connect the keyboard to the purple female 6 pin miniDIN connector on the Remote Unit. b. Connect the mouse to the green female 6 pin miniDIN connector on the Remote Unit.
4. Make sure the CAT5 cable has been installed in accordance with the “Preparation for Installation” instructions on page 3. Connect the CAT5 cable to the “Cat 5” port on the Remote Unit. (See Fig. 3.) When properly inserted the CAT5 cable end should snap into place. Note: If an RJ45 wall outlet is being used, connect the other end of the extension cable to the RJ45 wall outlet.
VideoQuality Quality Video Video quality adjustment is done automatically to assure the image is as clear as possible. Note: When the cable is longer than 300 feet some colored lines can be seen at the black-to-white transitions. This is a normal behavior and is caused by the different twisting rates of each pair of wires in the CAT5 cable.
