Appendix A. Cable and connector specifications
IMPORTANT NOTE
The maximum cable lengths supported vary widely between devices and cables. It may be possible to use
cables that are longer than those specified below with certain PCs and peripherals but this cannot be
guaranteed. If you experience problems try using shorter cables.
A1. Keyboard, monitor and mouse connections
All of these devices plug directly into the relevant ports of the C5 KVM. If you use an AT style keyboard you will
need an AT (5 pin DIN female) to PS/2 (6 pin mini-DIN male) converter.
Cable specification for connections from the remote unit to the keyboard, monitor and mouse
Ideally keyboard, monitor and mouse cables should not be longer than 10 metres.
Many keyboards and mice will also operate at distances of 20 metres but this cannot be guaranteed. If you are
using a monitor extension cable then you should ensure that this is a high quality tri-coax type.
