Chapter 2 - Hardware Setup

Before You Begin
If the tamper-evident seals are missing or peeled, avoid
using the product and contact your IOGEAR dealer.
If all front panel LEDs on the Secure KVM Switch
(except Power) flash continuously, all Remote Port
Selector (RPS) LEDs flash, or the switch's enclosure
appears to be breached, avoid using this product and
contact your IOGEAR dealer.
This Secure KVM Switch and the Remote Port Selector
(RPS) are equipped with active always-on chassis
intrusion detection security. Any attempt to open the
enclosure will permanently damage, disable the
switch/RPS, and void the warranty.
Tampering prevention and detection
1.
IOGEAR Secure KVM Switch and the optional Remote Port Selector (RPS) include tamper-evident
tapes to provide visual indications of intrusion to the switch/RPS enclosure. If the tamper-evident
seals are missing, peeled, or looks as if they have been adjusted, avoid using the product and
contact your IOGEAR dealer.
2.
IOGEAR Secure KVM Switch and RPS are equipped with active always-on chassis intrusion detec-
tion. If a mechanical intrusion is detected on the switch, the switch (without RPS connected) will be
permanently disabled and all the front panel LEDs (except the Power LED) will flash continuously.
If a mechanical intrusion is detected by the RPS (connected with the switch and aligned), this will
permanently disable both the RPS itself and the switch, and all LEDs (on RPS) and the front panel
LEDs except the Power LED (on switch) will flash continuously. If the switch or RPS enclosure
appears to be breached or all the LEDs are flashing continuously, stop using this product, remove it
from service immediately, and contact your IOGEAR dealer.
3.
Any attempt to open the switche or RPS enclosure will activate the chassis intrusion detection
security, which will render it inoperable and void the warranty.
4.
IOGEAR Secure KVM Switch cannot be upgraded, serviced, or repaired.
5.
IOGEAR Secure KVM Switch and RPS are equipped with active always-on chassis intrusion
detection security. Never attempt to open the enclosure. Any attempt to open the enclosure will
permanently damage and disable the switch.
6.
IOGEAR Secure KVM Switch and RPS contains an internal battery which is non-replaceable. Never
attempt to replace the battery or open the switch or RPS enclosure.
Always use qualified and authorized peripheral devices
1.
For security, IOGEAR Secure KVM Switch supports only standard USB devices (or pointing de-
vice). Do not connect a wireless keyboard/mouse, or keyboard/mouse with an internal USB hub or
composite functions to the switch.
2.
When connecting a non-qualified keyboard, the keyboard will not function. No keyboard keystrokes
will be seen on the screen.
3.
When connecting a non-qualified mouse, the mouse will not function. No mouse cursor movement
will be seen on the screen.
4.
For security, IOGEAR Secure KVM's USB console keyboard/mouse ports by default only support
the following – standard USB keyboards/mice, standard USB keyboards/mice via a USB hub, and
the HID functions of a composite device. Do not connect other USB devices to the USB console
keyboard/mouse ports. Non-qualified or nonauthorized USB devices will be rejected. For adminis-
trative configuration, please refer to the Administrator Guide.
