MPUIQ-VMCHS ModUle
Quick Installation Guide

The MPUIQ-VMCHS module is
designed to drastically reduce
cable bulk. Use your MPUIQ-
VMCHS module to convert
keyboard, monitor and mouse
signals from a server through a
single user-supplied CAT5 cable
(4-pair, up to 150 ft/45 m) to your
switch.
The MPUIQ-VMCHS module draws
its power from the server and has
Keep Alive functionality that will
keep your server working properly
with or without connectivity to the
Avocent® MergePoint Unity™
switch.
Troubleshooting tip
Make sure your server is turned
on before operating your Merge-
Point Unity™ switching system.
If a server is unavailable through
the MergePoint Unity™ local port
user interface, then double-check
your module connection or test
another MPUIQ-VMCHS module in
its place.
1. Connecting the MPUIQ-
VMCHS module to your
unit
Choose an available port on the
rear of your switch. Plug one
end of a user-supplied CAT5
cable into a numbered port and
the other end into the RJ45
connector of the MPUIQ-
VMCHS module.
2. Connecting a server to
the MPUIQ-VMCHS
module
Plug the MPUIQ-VMCHS
module, VGA monitor and USB
connectors into the appropriate
server ports. Repeat this step
for all servers that are to be
connected to the MergePoint
Unity™switch.
3. Turning on your system
Turn on your servers and
MergePoint Unity™switch.
Ensure that your switch is
properly configured and begin
operation of your system.
