Black Box ServSwitch ACU1022A KVM Console/Extender

It’s time you put your servers, CPUs, and ServSwitch family KVM switches in safe locations where they can be administered easily and kept secure.

The ServSwitch CAT5 KVM Extenders send keyboard, video, and mouse signals long distances across a single solid-core 4-pair Category 5 UTP or STP cable. (If possible, do not use “higher” cables-CAT5e, CAT6, and so on-because the tight wire twists in these cables actually degrade video signals. For details, see “For installations with higher-capacity cable”.

Plug your monitor, keyboard, and mouse (or a cable running to one of the CPU ports of a KVM switch) into an extender’s Remote Unit. Then run CAT5 cable from the Remote Unit to the extender’s Local Unit. Use extension cable(s) to connect your CPU or the user port of a KVM switch to the Local Unit. Plug everything in, turn it on, and go.
