To connect a DSRIQ module to a server:

1. Attach the appropriately color-coded connectors of a DSRIQ module to the keyboard, monitor

and mouse ports on the server you will be connecting to this DSR switch.

2. Attach one end of the CAT 5 patch cable to the RJ-45 connector on the DSRIQ module.

Connect the other end of the CAT 5 patch cable to the desired port on the back of your
DSR switch.

3. Repeat this procedure for all servers you wish to attach.

NOTE: When connecting a Sun DSRIQ module, you must use a multi-sync monitor in the local port to
accommodate Sun computers that support both VGA and sync-on-green or composite sync.

DSR switch.

NOTE: The DSRIQ-SRL module is a DCE device and only supports VT100 terminal emulation.
