III.-Installation
Important: Before beginning installation, power OFF all devices and ensure that all devices are properly grounded. Failure to do so may result in dam-

etc, that create electrical noise. For USB computers: USB signals are the strongest when transmitted up to 15 feet (4.5m) between the KVM and the
CPU. Beyond 15 feet (4.5m), probability of signal degradation can occur, causing the device to fail.
