Chapter 1
Introduction
Overview
The ATEN Secure KVM Switch series is NIAP1-certified and compliant with NIAP PPv4.0 (Protection
Profile for Peripheral Sharing Device version 4.0)2 requirements, satisfying the latest security requisites
set by the U.S. Department of Defense for peripheral sharing devices. Compliance ensures maximum
information security while sharing a single set of keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, and CAC
(Common Access Card) Reader3 between multiple computers. Conformity with Protection Profile v4.0
certifies that other USB peripherals cannot be connected to the console ports of the Secure KVM
Switch, and that only a keyboard and mouse are accommodated, therefore providing high-level security,
protection and safekeeping of data.
The ATEN Secure KVM Switch hardware security includes tamper-evident tape, chassis intrusion
detection, and tamper-proof hardware, while software security features include restricted USB
connectivity – non-HIDs (Human Interface Devices) or non-predefined CAC/HIDs are ignored when
switching, an isolated channel per port that makes it impossible for data to be transferred between
secure and unsecure computers, and automatic clearing of the keyboard and mouse buffer when
switching port focus.
By combining physical security with controlled USB connectivity and controlled unidirectional data
flow from devices to connected computers only, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch series offers you the
means to consolidate multiple workstations of various security classification levels with one keyboard,
monitor and mouse (KVM) console.
Note:
1. The National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) is a United States government initiative to
meet the security testing needs of IT consumers and manufacturers. It is operated by the National
Security Agency (NSA) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
2. The ATEN Secure KVM Switch series additionally satisfies Protection Profile version 4.0 for
Peripheral Sharing Device (PSD).
3. USB 1.1 for keyboard, mouse connections, and USB 2.0 for CAC reader connection.

Operation
Powering On
When you power on, reset, or power cycle the ATEN Secure KVM Switch, the switch will perform a
self-test to check the unit’s integrity and security functions.
During the self-test
� All Port LEDs, all CAC LEDs (if supported), Num Lock LED, Caps Lock LED, and Scroll Lock
LED on the Secure KVM will turn ON and then OFF.
� The KVM focus will be switched to Port 1 when the self-test completes successfully (Port 1 LED
lights bright orange).
Self-test failure
In the case of a self-test failure, the Secure KVM Switch becomes inoperable, with front panel LED
combinations (on the Secure KVM) indicating the potential cause of the failure (such as button jam or
KVM integrity compromise)
� A pre-defined combination of the Port and CAC LEDs indicate the cause of the failure.
� If all front panel LEDs on the Secure KVM (except the Power LED) flash continuously, it means
KVM tampering is detected or a self-test failure has occurred (except for Pushbutton jam; see below)
� If Pushbutton jam is detected, both the port’s LEDs (Port LED and CAC LED) will flash.
For security, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch becomes inoperable if the self-test fails. Please verify
your KVM installation by checking that the front panel pushbuttons are not stuck and then power cycle
the Secure KVM Switch. If the self-test failure remains, stop using the ATEN Secure KVM Switch
immediately, remove it from service and contact your ATEN dealer.
After the ATEN Secure KVM Switch is powered on and ready, power on your computers. By default
the ATEN Secure KVM Switch will switch to Port 1 after a successful self-test.
The ATEN Secure KVM Switch filters and emulates both a mouse and keyboard on each port after the
unit is powered on. If the keyboard, mouse, monitor, or Smart card / CAC reader fails to operate
properly, make sure that you are using the appropriate peripherals (qualified and authorized
peripherals); then power off the ATEN Secure KVM Switch, check all the cable connections, and
power on the unit again.

ATEN Secure KVM User Manual
Manual Switching
For increased security, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch offers manual port switching only. This is
achieved by pressing the port selection pushbuttons located on the switch front panel or pressing the
port selection pushbuttons located on the RPS’ panel (if RPS is connected and aligned)
Press and release a port selection pushbutton to bring the KVM focus to the computer attached to its
corresponding port (see Port ID Numbering, below). To meet maximum security and channel isolation
requirements, the keyboard, mouse, video, audio, and USB CAC reader ports will be switched together.
The Selected Port LED lights bright orange (on Switch and/or RPS) to indicate that the computer
attached to its corresponding port has the KVM focus (keyboard, mouse, monitor, audio, and CAC
reader).
The PC that has the port focus should be able to detect the peripherals after port switching.
If the PC fails to detect the keyboard, mouse, or CAC reader:
- Verify that the keyboard, mouse, and/or CAC reader is qualified.
- Verify that the keyboard, mouse, or CAC reader hasn’t failed.
- For USB CAC reader (USB authentication device), please make sure that the USB CAC cable has
been securely connected, and the CAC function is enabled.
- For USB CAC reader port, please contact your administrator to verify if the device has been
authorized.
Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port on the ATEN Secure KVM Switch is assigned a port number (1–2 for the 2-Port
models; 1–4 for the 4-Port models; 1–8 for the 8-Port models). The port numbers are marked on the
rear of the switch. See Rear View, page 7. The port ID of a computer is derived from the KVM port
number it is connected to.
LED Display
In addition to the Power LED, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch (and ATEN RPS) has Port LEDs
(Online and Selected), keyboard lock (Num Lock/Caps Lock/Scroll Lock) LEDs and CAC LEDs that
are built into the front panel to indicate port / keyboard / CAC reader operating status. A video LED is
located on the back panel (of the switch) to indicate the operating status of the video connection. These
LEDs also serve as the alarm notification for KVM security issues.
