Introduction
The SV1108IPEXT/POW 1 Port Remote Control IP KVM Switch with Virtual Media lets
you control a USB or PS/2 server remotely over a LAN or the Internet.
The 1 port KVM over IP includes all necessary KVM cables, and oers KVM control from
the BIOS-level onward. Reboot, monitor the entire boot process, and interact with your
connected system easily, while the integrated single-port power switch allows you to
power the server on or o remotely. RS232 support also lets you connect to a serial
console device via Telnet or SSH.
Virtual Media lets you execute les via USB from the remote console as if they were
local to the connected server. Perfect for remote driver updates, patches, application or
OS installation.
The Java-based browser utility ensures the IP remote control unit is compatible with
many current web browsers, and almost any operating system on the market.
Multiple integrated security features ensure a reliable single port IP KVM connection,
including password-protection, IP/MAC address ltering, external authentication
(RADIUS, LDAP, LDAPS, Active Directory) and advanced encryption (56-bit DES, 168-bit
3DES, 256-bit AES, 128-bit RC4).
The integrated remote power switch (SV1108IPPOW only) lets you Power the server on
or o remotely as necessary.
Backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.

Conventions
This manual uses the following conventions:
Monospaced Indicates text that you should key in.
[ ] Indicates keys you should press. For example, [Enter] means to press the Enter
key. If keys need to be chorded, they appear together in the same bracket
with a plus sign between them: [Ctrl+Alt].
1. Numbered lists represent procedures with sequential steps.
Bullet lists provide information, but do not involve sequential steps.
Indicates selecting the option (on a menu or dialog box, for example)
Terminology
Throughout the manual we make reference to the terms Local and Remote in regard
to the operators and equipment deployed in a SV1108IPEXT/POW installation.
Depending on the point of view, users and servers can be considered Local under
some circumstances, and Remote under others:
Switch’s Point of View
Remote users – We refer to a user as a Remote user when we think of him as
someone who logs into the switch over the net from a location
that is remote from the switch.
Local Console – The keyboard mouse and monitor connected directly to
the switch.
Servers – The servers attached to the switch via custom KVM cables.
User’s Point of View
Local client users – We refer to a user as a Local client user when we think of
him as sitting at his computer performing operations on the
servers connected to the switch that is remote from him.
Remote servers – We refer to the servers as Remote servers when we think of
them from the Local Client User’s point of view – since,
although they are locally attached to the switch, they are
remote from him.
When we describe the overall system architecture we are usually speaking from the
switch’s point of view – in which case the users are considered remote. When we speak
about operations users perform via the browser, viewers, and AP programs over the
net, we are usually speaking from the user’s point of view – in which case the switch
and the servers connected to it are considered remote.

Shutdown Method
There are three choices for the
Shutdown method. Drop down the list
to select a choice. The meaning of each
choice is described, below:
Wake on LAN: This is a Safe Shutdown
and Restart option. If this is selected,
when an Outlet is turned O, the
SV1108IPPOW rst sends a message to
the computer telling it to prepare for a
shutdown; it then waits for the amount
time set in the Power O Delay eld to
give the OS time to close down before
the computer is powered down to
standby mode.
Likewise, when the Outlet is turned On,
the SV1108IPPOW waits for the amount
time set in the Power On Delay eld,
then sends an Ethernet message to
the computer connected to the Outlet
telling the computer to turn itself On.
NOTE: For Safe Shutdown and Restart,
the computer must be running Windows
(98 or higher), or Linux, and the Safe
Shutdown program (available by
download from our website), must be
installed and running on the computer.
System after AC Back: This is a Safe
