Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Belkin Components OmniCube™KVM
(Keyboard Video Mouse) switch. Controlling two PCs from one keyboard,
mouse and monitor has never been easier or more affordable!
The OmniCube™is small in size, but big in performance. Compatible with any
PS/2 style computer, it is loaded with features comparable with more
expensive KVM switches. It has complete keyboard and mouse emulation for
error-free boot-ups, plus Microsoft®IntelliMouse®support. The OmniCube™is
also designed to handle the most demanding resolutions up to 1600 x 1200,
without any noticeable degradation in image quality. Switching can be done
through the convenient front-panel pushbutton, or by keyboard “Hot” key
commands. And if you wish to control a Macintosh®computer, simply add the
Belkin MAC Adapter™for even more system control – ideal for graphic artists!

Hardware Installation
Back of OmniCube™
1. Find a convenient place to
put your OmniCube™. Its
small size makes it ideal for
the desktop. Take note of
the length of your cable kits
so that your computers,
OmniCube™, keyboard,
mouse and monitor are
distanced properly.
2. Connect the monitor to the
OmniCube™. Using the
attached cable which
is included with your
monitor, connect it to the
HDDB15 female port on
the back of the OmniCube™
labeled MONITOR.
