OVERVIEW

6 ULTRACONSOLE INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL

System Overview

The UltraConsole switch is designed with the latest in KVM switching technology. It has the capability and flexibility

to configure to most keyboards, video monitors, mice, servers and computers. The modular design of the

UltraConsole makes the Unit easy to install, expand, and maintain. The addition of an expansion card and additional

switches can increase the number of computers that can be connected and accessed to 1,000.

The UltraConsole series switches are available in several different configurations depending on your system

switching needs; 4, 8, or 16 CPU ports, expansion capability, and KVM port.

KVM station

A KVM station, consisting of a Keyboard, Video monitor, and Mouse, connects to the DB25F KVM connector on the

rear panel using a KVM adapter cable. The KVM adapter cable is available with a variety of connector types to

accommodate the different types of keyboards, video monitors and mice. The KVM adapter cable connectors must

be compatible with the keyboard, video monitor, and mouse cable connectors.

KVM adapter cables are available in lengths of 1 – 100 feet.

(Refer to the compatibility table on page 3)

KVM Station Keyboard and Mouse

Can use a PS/2 keyboard and mouse or a Sun Keyboard and Mouse

Note: When using a PS/2 keyboard, the PS/2 keyboard must be capable of communicating in Mode 2 and Mode 3 if

the CPU’s are PC Mode 3, USB, SUN, or a Rose Translator is used in conjunction with an Apple computer.

KVM Station Video Monitor

The KVM Station video monitor must be capable of supporting the resolution, frequency, and sync type being sent by

all connected computer. It is recommended that the KVM monitor be a multi-sync monitor capable of resolutions up

to 1280 x 1024 @ 75Hz or better. The quality of the video depends largely on the type of monitor used, the KVM

cable length and cable type. For cable lengths greater than 20 feet, coax cable must be used. Appendix I. shows

the video quality distance table for different cable types.

Computers

The UltraConsole can connect to PC’s, Unix systems, Sun systems, and USB. Apple ADB computers can be

connected using a Rose translator.

The CPU connectors on all UltraConsole models are DB25F. Each connected computer uses a CPU adapter cable

compatible with the computer’s keyboard, monitor, and mouse ports.

CPU adapter cables are available in lengths of 5 – 100 feet.

The UltraConsole switch can support computers and serial devices such as routers and hubs, which require a serial

interface. A special cable is used to connect from the UltraConsole CPU connectors (DB25F) to a serial interface

(Dumb Terminal, CPU, or serial device).

The UltraConsole switches CPU port must first be configured for serial functions. Serial CPU cables are available in

DB25 to:



DB9



DB25



RJ11



RJ12



RJ45



MD8

Expansion

To expand the UltraConsole switch in a Bus or Ring configuration, an expansion card must be installed in each

UltraConsole switch.

Figure 1 shows the expansion card used for all models.

The expansion connectors provide the means of sending the system, keyboard, video, and mouse data from one

UltraConsole’s expansion card output to another UltraConsole’s expansion card input. This allows the KVM station

to switch to a computer connected on another switch. Expansion cables are needed for each expansion Unit.

Expansion cables are available in lengths of 2 – 250 feet.
