2.1 INTRODUCTION
The DKM Compact II KVM Matrix Switches come in sizes of 1, 2, and 4 RU with the intended use to establish connections from con-
soles (monitor, keyboard, mouse, and other peripheral devices) to various sources (computer, CPU). These switches support the capa-
bility to facilitate 1G and 3G technology within a single frame, they support modern applications with a combination of HD and 4K
video resolutions in a very economical way. Their custom-design chassis allows for future field upgradability, so you can scale your
system from 40 ports to 80 ports or even up to 160 ports to meet your business needs. CATx DKM Switches enable you to extend
KVM signals up to 140 meters (459 feet) over standard CATx cable. If you’re using CATx 3G, you can extend signals up to 100 meters
(328 feet). Fiber DKM Switches enable you to extend KVM signals up to 400 meters (1312 feet) over standard multimode fiber or even
10 kilometers (6.2 miles) over single mode fiber. Hybrid DKM Switches enable you to extend KVM signals up to 10 kilometers (6.2
miles) over singlemode fiber or 400 meters (1312 feet) over multimode fiber. They also allow you to extend KVM signals up to 140
meters (459 feet) over standard CATx cable. If you’re using CATx 3G, you can extend signals up to 100 meters (328 feet). If one of
these standard switches don’t meet your requirements, we can create custom versions specific to your application.
2.2 FEATURES
Choose catx, fiber, or mixed configurations for 1g or 3g
Maximum configuration of up to 160 independent ports that can be defined and switched either as a console or cpu
Compatible with upcoming 1g/3g, ipv6
Modular design is easy to scale and maintain
Compatible with all Black Box DKM kvm extenders
Has redundant power supply unit and network interface connections
Versatility: with only 3 types of chassis and only 5 types of i/o modules, an almost endless number of customer specific Black Box
matrix switches are possible
2.3 WHAT’S INCLUDED
Your package should contain the following items. If anything is missing or damaged, contact Black Box Technical Support
at 877-877-2269 or [e-mail]
(1) 1,2, or 4 RU DKM Compact II Matrix Switch
(2) IEC 320, C13 to 3 Prong, Power Cords w/ Locking mechanism (6.5 feet)

Single-Head Installation with Multi-Screeen Control
When using Multi-Screen Control, switching control between up to eight connected sources (computers,
CPUs) can be performed at one sink with only one connected mouse or keyboard. In a Single-Head
installation, the sink can consist of up to eight monitors. In a matrix system, Multi-Screen Control can be set
up at multiple sinks.
