Pre-Configuration
Where to place the Switch:
The enclosure of the Switch is designed for desktop or rack-mount
configuration. Rack-mount brackets are included with the Switch.
Consider the following when deciding where to place the Switch:
• Your proximity to the port selectors on the front of the Switch
• The lengths of the cables attached to your keyboard, monitor,
and mouse
• The location of your computers in relation to your console
• The lengths of the cables you use to connect your computers
to the Switch
Warning: Avoid placing cables near fluorescent lights,
air-conditioning equipment, or machines that create electrical noise
(e.g., vacuum cleaners).
Connection and Installation
Step 1 Connecting the Console to the Switch
Warning: Before attempting to connect anything to the Switch or your
computers, please ensure that all computer equipment and devices
are powered off.

the Switch in the “User Console” section.
Step 2 Power Up
2.1 Power on the monitor.
2.2 Power up the Belkin Secure KVM Switch by connecting the power.
