CHAPTER 4: Checklist of System Components
4.2.2.A Switches Whose User Ports Are a Set of Separate Interfaces
The user ports of some ServSwitch family KVM switches are a set of separate
interfaces: Each user port consists of separate interfaces/connectors for video,
keyboard, and mouse communication. At the time of this writing, some of the
important ServSwitch family models in this category are:
• ServSwitch™ Duo
• ServSwitch™ Wizard, Wizard LP, Wizard Pro
• ServSwitch™ Jr.
• Personal ServSwitch™
• ServSelect™
• ServSwitch™ Multi Base Unit or MX (“local console” user port only)
To attach a user port on one of these switches to a CPU port of a Local Unit or
Switching Remote Unit, you can use the extension cabling included with the
Extender.
4.2.2.B Switches with DB25 Composite User Ports
The user ports of several ServSwitch family KVM switches are specially pinned
DB25 connectors that function as composite (all-in-one) interfaces. At the time of
this writing, some of the important ServSwitch family models in this category are:
• ServSwitch™
• ServSwitch™ Ultra
• Matrix ServSwitch™
• ServSwitch™ Affinity
• ServShare™
To attach a user port on one of these switches to the Local Unit’s CPU port, you’ll
need a three-to-one ServSwitch User Cable (product code EHN054B for standard
or EHN283 for coaxial), plus the extension cabling included with the Extender.
Refer to Section 6.2.2.B for a description of how this cabling fits together.
To attach a user port on one of these switches to the Switching Remote Unit’s
CPU port, you’ll need a ServSwitch to ServSwitch Expansion Cable (EHN284).
4.2.2.C ServSwitch Multi (HD62 Composite User Ports)
The user ports on User Cards installed in the ServSwitch Multi are HD62 female
connectors that function as composite (all-in-one) interfaces. To attach one of
these ports to the CPU port of a Local Unit or Switching Remote Unit, you’ll need
a many-to-one ServSwitch Multi User Cable such as product code KV2505, plus the
extension cabling included with the Extender. Refer to Section 6.2.2.B for a
description of how this cabling fits together.
