Computer system (via CAM)
Each computer system is connected to the 
AdderView CATx 1000 unit via a Computer 
Access Module (CAM) and standard category 5, 
5e or 6 cabling. CAMs are available in various 
formats to suit differing computer system types 
and their particular connector styles.
Each CAM uses Adder Keep Alive technology 
to ensure that the keyboard and mouse inputs 
to the computer remain active, even when 
the particular channel is not selected. This action ensures that there are no 
connection delays or problems as the port is selected.  
To connect a computer system
1  Ensure that power is disconnected from the AdderView CATx 1000 unit and 
the system to be connected. 
2  Locate the required CAM (there are five types available) and attach its video, 
keyboard and mouse (PS/2-style, USB or Sun) and optional audio connectors 
to the relevant sockets on the computer system. 
3  Lay a suitable length of category 5, 5e or 6 cabling between the computer 
system and the AdderView CATx 1000 unit. The maximum length of the 
cable can be up to 10 metres (32 feet), however, bear in mind that the 
overall distance between a remote user and any computer must not exceed 
300 metres (980 feet).
4  Attach the connector of the cable 
run to the socket of the CAM.
5  At the other end of the cable run, attach the cable connector to one of the 
sockets labelled

Note: Each CAM is 
specifically shaped so 
that it can be secured 
using a cable tie around 
its middle. In this way, 
two CAMs can also be 
neatly joined together, 
back-to-back.
