(Typical Switch configuration)
Where to place the Switch:
The enclosure of the Switch is designed for stand-alone or rack-mount
configuration. The Switch can be mounted to a standard 19-inch server rack
using the included rack-mount brackets and screws.
Consider the following when deciding where to place the Switch:
• whether or not you intend to use the front-panel port selectors
• the lengths of the cables attached to your keyboard, monitor, and mouse
• the location of your servers in relation to your console
• the lengths of the cables you use to connect your servers to the Switch

Cable-Distance Requirements (for PS/2, USB, and Sun Servers)
VGA signals transmit best up to 100 feet (30m). Beyond that length, the
probability of video degradation increases. For this reason, Belkin recommends
that the length of the CAT5 UTP cable between the Switch and the connected
servers does not exceed 100 feet (30m).
Note: The Belkin CAT5 Extender (F1D084vea2) may be used to extend your
console (keyboard, mouse, and monitor) by up to 300 feet (91m).
Warning: Avoid placing cables near fluorescent lights, air-conditioning
equipment, or machines that create electrical noise (e.g., vacuum cleaners).
You are now ready to begin installation of your Switch. The following
sections (pages 13–22) provide complete instructions for the hardware
setup of a single Switch (F1DP108Gea, F1DP116Gea).

Switches to your OmniView SMB KVM-over-IP Switch, allowing a server
administrator to manage up to a maximum of 256 servers from one local or
remote console. Each daisy-chained KVM Switch is referred to as a “BANK” and
is assigned an address. The SMB KVM-over-IP Switch connected to the console
keyboard, mouse, and monitor can only function as the “primary” KVM switch.
BANKs 01 through 15 are referred to as “secondary” KVM switches.
3
4
5

How to Assign a BANK Address
All SMB CAT5 and PRO2 KVM Switches feature a “BANK DIP” switch. The
“BANK DIP” switch is used to assign the proper BANK address to each
KVM Switch.
9
10
• For a multiunit configuration, the “BANK DIP” switch for each secondary unit
must be set to a unique BANK address (from 01 through 15). Refer to the chart
on page 24 for “BANK DIP” switch settings.

2. Make sure that the power adapter is connected to the SMB KVM-over-IP
Switch and that the Switch is powered on. You should see the Switch
light up and display the digits “00”, indicating its BANK address.
3
3. Power up the secondary KVM Switches sequentially, beginning with BANK
01, by connecting each unit’s power supply. Each KVM Switch should
display its corresponding BANK address number as it is powered up.
4
5
Note: If the secondary KVM Switches do not enumerate correctly, reset
the SMB KVM-over-IP Switch (BANK 00) by simultaneously pressing the
“BANK +” and “BANK –” buttons. You can also reset the primary switch
to detect newly added secondary KVM Switches. If the KVM Switches
still do not enumerate correctly, check that all KVM Switches have the
correct BANK address assigned to them and that all daisy-chain cables are
connected properly.

4. Verify that the SMB KVM-over-IP Switch has detected all secondary
KVM Switches by scrolling through the BANKs using the “BANK +” and
“BANK –” buttons. If all secondary KVM Switches are detected properly,
the LED display on the primary KVM Switch will register and display the
BANK address of the attached secondary KVM Switch.

Step 1 Identifying the IP Address
Once your Switch has been connected to your network and is powered up,
a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server on your network will
automatically assign the Switch an IP address, gateway address, and
subnet mask.
To identify the IP address on your network, use the MAC address or unique
device number located on the back of the Switch. If no DHCP server is
found on your network, the Switch will boot with the following static IP
address: 192.168.2.155.
If you want to connect more than one Switch to the same network and there is
no DHCP server available, connect each Switch to your network one at a time
and change the static IP address of each unit before connecting the next unit.
Note: If a DHCP server later becomes available on your network, the
Switch will take a new IP address from the DHCP server. To keep the
original static IP address, you will need to disable DHCP (see page 32).

When first connecting to the Switch’s HTTPS configuration page, two browser
security warnings may appear. Click “Yes” on both warnings.
Note: The first security warning only occurs once per client machine. This is
when the Belkin root certificate is installed. The second warning can be avoided
by adding a line to your Windows “hosts” file (typically at \winnt\system32\
drivers\etc\hosts—edit using Notepad). The line format should be “IP address
any name.kvm.net”. (For example: 192.168.2.155BelkinSMB.kvm.net.)

the first port number of the series. The default port is port 900. This is suitable for
the majority of installations.
10
Note: Your firewall or router security access list must enable inbound
communication through the selected TCP ports for the Switch’s address.
Ports 80 and 443 are used for standard Web communication and should be
open. For client-computer access from a secured LAN, the selected ports
should be open for outbound communication.

Enable DHCP
When this box is checked (default setting), a DHCP server on your network is
enabled to assign an IP address to the Switch. When this box is not checked
(recommended), you can assign a static IP address to the Switch.
Set a Static IP
If you choose not to use DHCP, uncheck the “Enable DHCP” box, then enter
the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway for LAN, as provided by your
network administrator.
Note: If you enter a static IP address without unchecking the “Enable DHCP”
box, the static IP address will not work and DHCP will remain enabled.
Note: Where you have access to the server, your configured (or default) Switch
device name will appear on the DHCP server’s list, making it easy to locate.

Mouse-Pointer Calibration
A target server may have a different mouse-pointer speed than the client
computer. Calibration automatically discovers the mouse speed of the target
server and aligns the two pointers. When you calibrate pointers, the Switch
saves the alignment, so calibration is only needed once per target server.
To calibrate mouse pointers (for servers running on Windows NT

Using the Switch from a Local Console
Now that you have connected your console and servers to the Switch,
it is ready for use. You can select connected servers by using either the
front-panel port selectors, the On-Screen Display (OSD), or hot-key commands
through the console keyboard. It takes approximately 1–2 seconds for the video
signal to refresh after switching servers. Re-synchronization of the mouse and
keyboard signals also occurs. This is normal operation and ensures that proper
synchronization is established between the console and the connected servers.
Selecting a Server or BANK
Selecting a Server or BANK Using Hot Keys
Switch to the next or previous port with simple keyboard hot-key sequences
using the Scroll Lock key and either the up or down arrow keys. To send
commands to the Switch, the Scroll Lock key must be pressed twice within two
seconds. The Switch will beep, confirming that it is in hot-key mode. Next, press
the up arrow key and the Switch will switch to the next port. Press the down
arrow key to switch to the previous port.
Switch to previous active port,
“Down” arrow
Switch to next active port, “Up” arrow.
With a single-switch configuration (no daisy-chained KVM switches), you can

Selecting a Server Using Port Selectors
You can directly select which server you wish to control by pressing the port
selector next to the corresponding port. The LED will illuminate to indicate
the port is currently selected. If you are installing multiple KVM Switches that
are daisy-chained, use the BANK scroll keys located on the front panel of
the primary KVM Switch to access other servers that are connected to the
secondary KVM Switches.
Selecting a BANK Using Scroll Buttons
Pressing the “BANK +” and “BANK –” scroll buttons on the primary KVM Switch
will allow you to switch between the daisy-chained Switches. Pressing both
buttons simultaneously will reset the Switch.
The “BANK +” button will take you to the next BANK. For example, when you
are at the primary switch (BANK 00) and want to check servers on BANK 02,
pressing the “BANK +” button will take you to BANK 02. As a default, the first
active server will be displayed on the console monitor. Use the port selectors to
go to the desired server on BANK 02.
The “BANK –” button will take you to the previous BANK (for example, when you
are at BANK 02 and want to check servers in BANK 01). Pressing the “BANK
–” button will take you to BANK 01. As a default, the first active server will be
displayed on the console monitor. Use the port selectors to go to the desired
server on BANK 01.

AutoScan Mode
1
2
The AutoScan feature allows you to set your Switch to scan and monitor the
activities of all connected servers one by one. The Switch remains on one server
for a preset number of seconds, before switching to the next server. The time
interval allotted for each server can be defined or adjusted through the OSD
menu (see the “Scan Time” section).
3
When the Switch is in AutoScan mode, it is also in view-only mode. This means
that input from the console (keyboard and mouse) will not be transmitted to the
server in focus. Cancel AutoScan to regain control of the server.
4
5
To activate the AutoScan function, press the “AutoScan” button on the Switch.
You can also activate AutoScan on your keyboard by pressing “Scroll Lock”,
“Scroll Lock”, space bar, “F4”.
6
To disable AutoScan, press any button on the front panel or any key on
the keyboard.
7
Note: There is no mouse or keyboard control in AutoScan mode. This is
necessary to prevent data and synchronization errors. If the user is using the
mouse or keyboard when the Switch is switching between ports, data flow may
become interrupted and could result in erratic mouse movement and/or wrong-
character input when using the keyboard.
