Introduction

Overview

The KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai KVM Over the NET™ switches are control units that allow access to multiple computers from a single KVM (keyboard, monitor, and mouse) console.
A single KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai can control up to 8 / 16 computers. As many as 15 additional KVM switches can be daisy chained from the original unit, so that up to 256 computers can all be controlled from the original KVM console.
Note: See Supported Devices, page 202, for a list of KVM switches that can
be installed on a KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai daisy chain.
Since the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai uses TCP/IP for its communications protocol, it can be accessed from any computer on the Net – whether that computer is located down the hall, down the street, or half-way around the world.
Over the
TM
NET
Local
In addition to TCP/IP connectivity, the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai provides local ports for a locally attached USB or PS/2 console and a Laptop console – allowing access and control from the data center as well as over the Net. The switches utilize a single shared bus implementation – although they support local and remote login at the same time, they do not support independent operation. If a local user logs in while a remote user has already opened a session, the local user sees the same screen that the remote user is working on.
For local and remote access, the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai supports resolutions of 1920x1200@60Hz* @ 30 m, 1600x1200@60Hz for 40 m, and 1280x1024@75Hz for 50 m.

KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai User Manual
The switches feature RJ-45 connectors and Cat 5e/6 cable to link to the computers. Utilizing PS/2, USB, and serial KVM Adapter Cables for the final linkup, the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai permits any combination of Windows, Macs, Sun computers, and serial devices to coexist on the installation. Use of the adapter cables dramatically reduces cable clutter, and makes reconfiguring the installation easy and convenient.
A custom ASIC (patent pending) provides an auto-sensing function that recognizes the position of each station on the chain, eliminating the need to manually set the position with DIP switches. A seven segment front panel LED displays each Station's position for easy identification.
The KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai has been designed to work seamlessly with the ATEN CC2000 Management software for ease of access and administration. It also allows the IP address configuration to be easily configured from the local console OSD.
Your KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai investment is protected by a firmware upgrade utility. You can stay current with the latest improvements in functionality by downloading firmware update files from our website, and using the utility to quickly and conveniently install them.
Setting up the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that is entailed. Because the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai intercepts keyboard and mouse input directly, there is no software to configure; no need to get involved in complex installation routines; no need to be concerned with incompatibility problems.
Access to any computer on the installation is easily accomplished--either by pressing front panel port selection switches; entering hotkey combinations from the keyboard; or by means of a powerful menu driven OSD (On Screen Display) system. A convenient Auto Scan function also permits automatic scanning and one-by-one monitoring of the activities of selected computers.
There is no better way to save time and money than with a KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai installation. By allowing a single console to manage up to 256 computers, a KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai installation: (1) eliminates the expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each; (2) saves all the space those extra components would take up; (3) saves on energy costs; and (4) eliminates the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving from one computer to another.

Overview

For convenience and flexibility that allows mixing the PS/2, USB, and serial device interfaces, as well as multiple platforms, the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai's design utilizes KVM Adapter Cables (CPU Modules), that serve as intermediaries between the switch and the connected devices (refer to the installation diagram on page 18).
A separate KVM Adapter Cable is required for each computer or device connection. See KVM Adapter Cables, page 6 for the model numbers.

Before You Begin

1. Important safety information regarding the placement of this device is provided on page 179. Please review it before proceeding.
2. Make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting up have been turned off. You must unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function.

Stacking and Rack Mounting

The KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai can be stacked on the desktop or rack mounted at the front or rear of the rack. The following sections take you through the procedures for each method.

Stacking

The KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai can be placed on any appropriate level surface that can safely support its weight plus the weight of its attached cables. To place the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai, or to stack units if you are daisy chaining them, remove the backing material from the bottom of the rubber feet that came with this package, and stick them onto the switch’s bottom panel at the corners, as shown in the diagram, below:
Note: To ensure adequate ventilation, allow at least 5.1 cm on each side, and
12.7cm at the back for power cord and cable clearance.

Single Station Installation

In a single stage installation, there are no additional KVM switches daisy chained down from the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai. To set up a single stage installation, refer to the installation diagrams starting on page 18. The numbers in the diagrams correspond with the numbers of the instruction steps, below:
1. Ground the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai by connecting one end of a grounding wire to the grounding terminal, and the other end of the wire to a suitable grounded object.
Note: Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to the unit
from surges or static electricity.
2. Plug the the console keyboard, monitor, and mouse into the unit’s console ports. Ports are color coded and marked with icons for easy identification.
Note: You can use any combination of keyboard and mouse connections.
3. If you are using a laptop USB console to control the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai locally, use the laptop USB cable included in the package to connect the laptop to the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai’s Laptop port, located on the unit’s front panel.
4. Use Cat 5e/6 cable to connect any available KVM port to a KVM adapter cable that is appropriate for the computer you are installing (see KVM Adapter Cables, page 6 for details).
Note: To support a resolution of 1280x1024@75Hz, the recommended maximum
distance between the unit and the KVM adapter cable is 50 meters; to support a resolution of 1600x1200@60Hz, the recommended maximum distance is 40 meters.
5. Connect the KVM adapter cable to the computer. Plug the connectors on the KVM adapter cable into the appropriate ports
of the computer you are installing. (See KVM Adapter Cable Installation Diagrams, page 19 for connection examples.)
6. Plug the LAN or WAN cable into the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai’s LAN port.
7. Plug the female end of the power cord into the KH1508Ai / KH1516Ai's power socket; plug the male end into an AC power source.
