cables (up to 1000 meters).
Connect L1 to any Upstream
Receive Port and L2 to the same
numbered Upstream Transmit Port.
(See the Digital Crosspoint
Switch detail diagram,

Thinklogical’s™ VX40 KVM Matrix Switch features redundant
Power Supplies and Controller Modules for uninterrupted
performance, even during system reconfiguration, updates or
debug. The VX40 remains fully functional with only one Power
Supply installed or with one Controller activated.
NOTE: When using a single Controller, the module on the left
(Primary) must be used.
