The maximum DVI cable length that can be used from the PC to the CPU Switch
Smart DVI will vary from PC to PC depending upon the computer’s video card, but
typically 5 metres is achievable at a resolution of 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz and 10
metres is achievable at a resolution of 1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz
Keyboard and PS/2 mice
- 6 pin mini-DIN male connector to 6 pin mini-DIN male
connector with all lines connected straight through (1-1,2-2 etc.). For ‘interface
powered’ operation without the optional power adapter the cables should be no
longer than 5 metres (see section 2.4 for more details). For operation with the power
adapter, cables should be no longer than 30 metres.
RS232 serial mice
- these require a special converter to connect the RS232 lines
present on the CPU Switch Smart DVI mouse ports to the RS232 port on a PC.
Cables should be no longer than 30 metres.
NOTE - There are several common wiring specifications for 6-pin mini-DIN to
9-pin serial adapters. If you have an adapter that has been supplied with a
mouse it may have a completely different internal wiring to that shown above
and may not be compatible with the CPU Switch Smart
