20 DOMINION KX II USER GUIDE
3. Local Access Port (local PC)
For convenient access to target servers while at the rack, use the Dominion KX II Local Access
port. While the local port is required for installation and setup, it is optional for subsequent use.
The local port provides the KX II Local Console graphical user interface for administration and
target server access.
To connect the local port:
Attach a multi-sync VGA monitor, mouse, and keyboard to the respective Local User ports
(using either a PS/2 or USB keyboard and mouse).
4. Target Server Ports
Do
minion KX II uses standard UTP cabling (Cat5/5e/6) to connect to each target server. Refer to
Appendix A: Specifications
for additional information.
To connect a target server to the Dominion KX II:
1. Use the appropriate Computer Interface Module (CIM). Refer to Supported CIMs
for more
information about the CIMs to use with each operating system.
2. Attach the HD15 video connector of your CIM to the video port of your target server. Ensure
that your target server’s video has already been configured to a supported resolution and
refresh rate. For Sun servers, also ensure that your target server’s video card has been set to
output standard VGA (H-and-V sync) and not composite sync.
3. Attach the keyboard/mouse connector of your CIM to the corresponding ports on your target
server. Using a standard straight-through UTP (Cat5/5e/6) cable, connect the CIM to an
available server port on the back of your Dominion KX II unit.
