Before installing your secure
desktop matrix switch, ensure the
following:
•The front panel is visible to the
user, unless using the Cybex™
Active Front Panel (AFP) KVM
remote unit.
•The tamper-evident labels are
all intact.
WARNING: The switch is equipped
with active intrusion protection.
Tampering may permanently
disable the switch and void the
warranty. If the enclosure appears
to have been tampered with, or if
all the port LEDs ash sequentially,
contact Technical Support. Broken
or removed tamper-evident seals
void the warranty.
1. Connecting local
peripherals
Ensure all computers and
displays are turned o.
Plug the display cables into the
CONSOLE primary (1) and
secondary (2) display ports on
the back of the switch. The
switch uses a combination
DisplayPort (DP) and HDMI
connector to enable either
video format to be used as
input or output.
Plug the USB keyboard and
mouse cables and speaker or
headphone cable into the
appropriate CONSOLE ports
on the back of the switch.
NOTE: Do not connect a
microphone, including a
headset with an integrated
microphone, to the switch’s
audio output port.
If desired, connect the Cybex™
Active Front Panel (AFP) KVM
remote unit to the RCU port to
control your switch remotely.
Contact your Vertiv
representative for more
information.
NOTE: For security reasons,
the switches do not support
wireless devices.
2. Connecting a Dedicated
Peripheral Port (DPP)
device (if applicable)
Connect a USB device, such as
a smart card reader, to the blue
USB Type-A CONSOLE port on
the back of the switch. The
device must be compliant with
USB 1.1 or 2.0 standards and
included in the adminstrator-
dened list of recognized
devices.
NOTE:By default, the DPP
supports authentication
devices, such as smart card
and biometric readers. Other
devices must be specically
whitelisted. Refer to the Cybex
SC-SCM Switching System
Additional Operations and
Conguration Technical
Bulletin for more information.
3. Connecting
each computer
Connect a USB cable from
each computer to the
keyboard/mouse USB Type-B
port on the switch.
Plug the display cable from the
corresponding computer into
the appropriate port on the
switch.
If applicable, connect an audio
cable from the computer’s
audio output to the switch’s
audio input.
If using DPP, connect a second
USB cable from the computer
to the second USB Type-B port
on the switch. Repeat for all
computers.
NOTE: The USB cables must
be connected directly to a free
