The following instructions will help you
install and use your DSR switch.
Should you require further assistance, please
contact Avocent Technical Support.
1
Connecting power to the DSR switch
Turn off all servers that will be part of your
DSR switching system. Locate the power
cord that came with the DSR switch. Plug
one end into the power socket on the rear of
the DSR switch. Plug the other end into an
appropriate AC wall outlet.
2
Connecting the local port
Plug your VGA monitor, PS/2 or USB
keyboard and mouse cables into the
appropriately labeled DSR switch ports.
3
Connecting a DSRIQ module
to the DSR switch
Choose an available port on the rear of your
DSR switch. Plug one end of a CAT 5 cable
(4-pair, up to 50 meters) into a numbered port
and plug the other end into the RJ-45 connector
of a DSRIQ module.
4
Connecting a server to the
DSRIQ module
Plug the DSRIQ module into the appropriate
ports on the back of the server. Repeat
this procedure for all servers that are to be
connected to the DSR switch.
5
Connecting network and
remote users
Plug a CAT 5 cable from your Ethernet
network into the LAN port on the back of
your DSR switch. Network users will gain
access through this port.
