Avocent AMIQDM Quick Installation Manual

The following instructions will help you
to connect your AMIQDM module.
For more detailed information on the AMX
switching system, please consult your AMX
Series Installer/User Guide.
About the AMIQDM module
The AMIQDM (dual port/multimedia) module
delivers real-time, high bandwidth video, stereo
audio (7 kHz) and serial data for KVM switching
up to 1,000 feet away from the server. It is
designed to support audio and serial data
transmission with the addition of an AMX5130
user station. The AMIQDM module features
dual UTP connections, enabling one computer
connection to be shared between two AMX
switches. The advanced technology provides
built-in memory and security, enabling you to
store server names and prohibit unauthorized
access to the server from the UTP cabling.
The AMIQDM module draws its power from the
server and supports Keep Alive functionality,
enabling your server to operate properly with or
without connectivity to the AMX switch. Keep
Alive functionality is suspended
during upgrade.

NOTE: AMIQDM module audio and serial con-
nections can be left unconnected at the server
if the audio and/or serial functionality is not
required in your AMX switching system.
For serial and/or audio functionality, connect the
AMIQDM module serial connector to the serial port
and the audio connectors into the appropriately
labeled ports on the back of the server. Repeat this
procedure for each server to be connected to the
AMX switch. Now, power up the server. When the
server has completely powered up, proceed to the
next step.
