Congratulations and thank you for purchasing this Belkin OmniView Secure
DVI Dual-Link KVM Switch (the Switch). Designed especially for secure military
and government installations, the Switch provides the centralized control
required by today’s IA (Information Assurance) computer environments. It
allows users to manage multiple computers from a single USB console, while
preventing unintended data transfer between computers running on different
security levels.
This User Manual provides all the details you’ll need to install and operate
your new Switch, in addition to expert troubleshooting advice—in the unlikely
event of a problem. For quick and easy installation, please refer to the Quick
Installation Guide included in your packaging.
Important: Tamper-evident seals have been placed on both sides of the
Switch enclosure, to provide evidence if the product has been opened and
potentially compromised (see diagram on page 6). If either seal has been
removed or appears disrupted, please call Belkin Technical Support at
[phone].

Security Features
• DedicatedProcessors
Designed specifically for secure environments, the Switch features a
dedicated processor per computer port. This keeps each computer running
on different security levels completely separated and secure at all times, and
prevents any unintended data transfer between computers.
• NoMemoryBuffer
The Switch does not have a memory buffer and does not have the ability
to store data. This prevents any keystrokes or other data input from being
unintentionally transferred as you switch between computers, ensuring the
integrity of your data. The Switch does not include any features that require
memory, such as hot keys, AutoScan, or an on-screen display (OSD).
• Non-ReprogrammableFirmware
The Switch features custom firmware that is not reprogrammable, preventing
the ability to tamper with the KVM logic.
• Tamper-EvidentSeals
Tamper-evident seals are placed on both sides of the enclosure, to provide
indication if the Switch has been opened or compromised.
• Tamper-ProofHardware
All integrated circuits are soldered directly to the printed circuit board to
prevent tampering with the components.
• NIAPListing
The Switch is listed by the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP).
It is NIAP Common Criteria validated to EAL 4 (Evaluation Assurance Level 4)
augmented with ALC FLR 3.
