High Performance KVM Extender System

Quick Installation Guide

4

(Optional) Connecting an additional 

video monitor to the local extender in a 
single-user configuration

NOTE:  If you plan to use a dual-user 
configuration, skip this step.

If you wish to add a local monitor directly 
to the local extender, connect the video 
cable between monitor and the OUT video 
port on the right side of the local extender. 

For LongView 3020 extenders, the initial 
connection should be made from the 
bottom (primary) extender port and an 
additional connection should be from the 
top (secondary) extender port.

5

Connecting local extender power

For the LongView 3010 extender, use a 
cable no longer than three meters and plug 
the USB connector into the designated 
local extender port on the right end. 
Connect the other end to a USB computer 
port with high power output.

NOTE: 

If your computer does not have a high 

power output for the USB port, the LongView 
3010 extender must be powered with an 
optional power adaptor. Contact your sales 
representative for more information.  

If you are using a LongView 3020 extender 
(or the LongView 3010 optional power 
adaptor), assemble the power adaptor 
and the power cord. Insert one end of the 
power cord into the local extender and 
plug the other end into an appropriate 
power source. 

6

(Optional) Expanding your system to 

a dual-user configuration

In a dual-user configuration, a single 
computer is controlled from two local 
extenders (Local 1 and Local 2). Each 
extender receives the same audio and 
video output and also has equal concurrent 
control over the computer.  General 
installation is already complete for Local 1 
if you have completed steps 1-5.

NOTE: 

Arbitration between extenders is 

handled via a computer USB system,  so this 
configuration is best suited for users not 
required to frequently have simultaneous access.

To connect video to Local 2, insert one end 
of a video cable into the video port on the 
left side of the Local 2 extender. Plug the 
other end into the video port on the right 
side of the Local 1 extender.

 NOTE: 

For LongView 3020 extenders, the 

initial connection should be made between 
the bottom (primary) extender ports and any 
additional connections should be from the top 
(secondary) extender ports.
