2.4.1

Connecting a KVM-IA to each target device



Attach the color-coded connectors of the KVM-IA to the keyboard, monitor, and
mouse ports on the first target device that you connect to the appliance.



Attach one end of the Cat 5 cable to the RJ-45 connector on the KVM-IA.



Connect the other end of the Cat 5 cable to an ARI port on the rear of the
KVM s2-0411 appliance.



Repeat steps 1 to 4 for all target devices that you are attaching.

2.4.2

Connecting local peripheral devices

The KVM s2-0411 appliance provides one port for a local user.


Connect a keyboard, monitor, and mouse to the color-coded ports on the rear panel
of the appliance.



Bundle and label the cables for easy identification.

2.5

Adding earlier appliance models

You can add earlier appliance models for integration into the existing configuration. In a
tiered switching system, each ARI port will accommodate one target device. When
earlier appliance models are tiered under the KVM s2-0411 appliance, the KVM s2-0411
appliance must be at the top level of the tier. See the following list for earlier appliance
models that are compatible with the appliance configuration.

Earlier appliance models include:

KVM s2-1611

KVM s2-0801

KVM s2-1602

Figure 5 on page 10 illustrates an example of a tiered switching system, using the KVM
s2-0411 appliance.

The KVM s2-0801 and the KVM s2-1602 are the only earlier appliance
models that will cascade beneath a KVM s2-0411 appliance.
