Single Stage Installation
In a single stage installation, there are no additional switches are cascaded from
the original KN1108v / KN1116v switch. To set up a single stage installation,
refer to the installation diagrams starting on page 22 (the numbers in the
diagram correspond with the numbers of the instruction steps), and do the
following:
1. Plug your Local Console’s keyboard, monitor, and mouse into the unit’s
Console Ports. Each port is color coded and marked with an appropriate
icon. (see diagram)
Note: 1. You can use any combination of keyboard and mouse
connections. For example, you can use a PS/2 keyboard with a
USB mouse.
2. USB keyboards and mice can plug into the USB ports on the front
panel, as well as into the ports in the console port section.
3. The KN1108v / KN1116v does not support distances that exceed
20m between itself and the local monitor.
2. If you are using a laptop USB console to control the KN1108v / KN1116v
locally, use a mini-USB cable to connect the laptop to the KN1108v /
KN1116v’s Laptop port, located on the unit’s front panel.
3. Use Cat 5e cable to connect any available KVM port to a KVM Adapter
Cable that is appropriate for the server you are installing.
Note: 1. See KVM Adapter Cables, page 7 for adapter cable information.
2. The distance between the switch and the KVM Adapter Cable
must not exceed these lengths: KA71xx: 50m; KA91xx: 40m.
4. Plug the connectors on the KVM Adapter Cable into the appropriate ports
of the server you are installing. (See Adapter Cable Connection Diagram,
page 23.)
5. Plug a cable from the LAN or WAN into the KN1108v / KN1116v primary
network interface socket.
6. (Optional) Plug another cable from the LAN or WAN into the KN1108v /
KN1116v backup (secondary) network interface socket.
