Cables
CrystalView Plus Local Unit to CPU cable
A CPU adapter cable is used to connect from the Local Unit to a
CPUs keyboard, video monitor and mouse ports. The Serial/Audio
models use a male-to-male cable configured on both ends with an
HD15M VGA connector, two MiniDin-6 connectors for the PS/2
keyboard and mouse, a 3.5mm audio cable, and a DB9MF serial
cable.
The dual video model uses a DB25M to HD15M cable. The quad
video model use a standard HD15M to HD15M video cable for each
additional CPU video output.
Max Local unit to CPU cable length is 20 feet using standard
cabling. Using coax cabling, this distance can be extended, but care
should be taken because power for the Local unit is obtained from
the connected CPUs keyboard port. Extended distances may
require the use of an additional power supply for the local unit.
CrystalView Plus Remote Unit to KVM station cable
The keyboard, video monitor, and mouse cables on a KVM station
can connect directly to the CrystalView Plus Remote unit or the Dual
Local Unit connectors if they are HD15M Video connector and PS/2,
MiniDin-6 Keyboard and Mouse connectors.
Stereo speakers and a microphone can connect directly to the
remote unit’s audio ports.
The dual and quad video models use a standard HD15M to HD15M
video cable for each additional video source.
