5. Installation
5.1 Rackmount Considerations
5.1.1 Ambient Operating Temperature
The ambient operating temperature in the rack may be an issue and depends on the rack load and
ventilation. When installing the KVM switch in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, make sure that
the temperature will not exceed the maximum rated ambient temperature.
5.1.2 Airflow
Ensure that the airflow through the rack is not compromised.
5.1.3 Circuit Overloading
When connecting the KVM switch to the supply circuit, consider the effect that overloading of
circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring.
Reliable grounding of all rack-mounted equipment must be maintained.
To protect against circuit overloading you should connect your Console KVM and attached
computers/servers to a Tripp Lite SmartPro® or SmartOnline® UPS System.

5.3 Pre-Installation Guidelines
• Switch off all computers
• Ensure that the cables are not close to any sources of electrical noise interference such as
fluorescent lights, HVAC systems or motors
• Ensure that the distance between any computer and the KVM switch does not exceed 100 ft.
• Shut down all PS/2 computers. If you plug the keyboard and mouse connectors into an active
PC, they may not work.
5.4 Connecting the NetCommander KVM System
Connect each computer to the KVM using a Server Interface Unit (SIU) and Cat5e/6 patch cable.
Figure 5.3 illustrates the connection options.

5.5 NetCommander Server Interface Unit (SIU)
The Server Interface Unit receives power from the connected computer. In the case of the
NetCommander PS/2 Server Interface Unit (B078-101-PS2), power is drawn from the keyboard
port. In the case of the NetCommander USB Server Interface Unit (B078-101-USB-1), power is
drawn from the USB port. SIUs allow a computer/server to be located up to 100 ft. from the KVM
switch.
