The Intelix PS2 contains both a send and receive balun. Both models are completely passive
and do not require a power supply.
Installation
Caution:
Do not attempt to open the balun housing. There are no user-serviceable parts
inside the PS2. Opening the unit will void your warranty.
To install the PS2 baluns, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off power and disconnect the computer and any other connecting equipement
by following the manufacturer's instructions.
2. Connect the source keyboard to the purple connector on the send PS2 balun, then
connect the source mouse to the green connector on the send PS2 balun.
Caution:
Do not mount the balun over equipment ventilation openings. Covering the
openings may cause the equipment to overheat.
3. Connect the receive PS2 to the computer or destination equipment by connecting the
purple connector into the computer's keyboard port and the green connector into the
computer's mouse port.
4. Choose the structured cabling to be used. Verify the desired structured cabling is not
being used for other LAN or telephony equipment.
Caution:
Do not connect the PS2 to a telecommunication outlet wired to unrelated
equipment. Making such a connection may damage the equipment and/or
balun. Please ensure all wiring is "straight-through."
5. Complete the connection between the send and receive PS2 baluns using structured
cabling, such as Cat 5. Ensure the RJ45 connector pinout conforms to EIA/TIA 568
A or B crimp patterns.
6. Power on the computer or related equipment and test for correct operation.
The Intelix PS2 balun extends a computer's
PS/2 keyboard and mouse up to 350 feet
over structured cabling, such as Cat 5.
Typical applications include classroom and
educational facilities, corporate and board-
room audio-visual systems, digital signage,
collaborative PC systems, and bio-medical
information systems.
