Installation
This product is composed of two different units: the Host Unit and
the Remote Unit. The Host Unit takes input controls from a computer
(using a PS/2 or USB integrated KVM cable) and allows access to
them via the Remote Unit over Category 5 UTP cable. The remote
computer also connects to the Remote Unit using an integrated KVM
cable (again, either PS/2 or USB) and allows the user at the remote
site to control that computer or the host computer using keyboard
hotkey commands.
A PS/2 mouse and keyboard and a VGA monitor are connected to the
Remote Unit (the console). You can also connect console peripherals
to the Host Unit if you need direct as well as remote access to that
computer.

Preparing Your Site
Before you can install the the product, you need to prepare your site.
Determine where the host computer will be located and set up the1.
computer.
Determine where the console devices (mouse, keyboard, monitor)2.
will be located and place them appropriately.
If you are using surface cabling, ensure you have enough Category3.
5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network cabling to connect the Host
Unit to the Remote Unit’s location, and that each end is terminated
with a RJ-45 connector.
OR
If you are using premises cabling, ensure that the Category 54.
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network cabling between the Host
Unit and the Remote Unit has been properly terminated in a wall
outlet in each location and there is a patch cable long enough
to connect the Remote Unit and the Host Unit to their respective
outlets.

Installing the Host Unit
Place the Host Unit near the computer.1.
Switch off the computer and disconnect any existing VGA and input2.
connections.
Using a StarTech.com integrated KVM cable (see page 8 for part3.
numbers), connect the end of the cable that has two (USB) or three
(PS/2) connectors to the VGA Out connector and the USB or mouse
and keyboard PS/2 connectors on the computer as appropriate. (The
PS/2 version of the cable is color-coded.) Connect the opposite end
of the cable with a single connector to the gray-coded connector
marked COMPUTER on the Host Unit of the KVM extender.
If you wish to have console access to the host computer, connect a4.
PS/2 mouse, keyboard, and VGA monitor to the indicators marked
as CONSOLE on the Host Unit.
Connect the UTP cable connection for Remote Unit to the5.

Units carry electrical current and should not be plugged in to other
devices, as they may cause damage. We strongly recommend marking
the cables you are using with this product at both locations for easy
identification.
Driver Installation
No driver installation is required as the SV565UTP uses standard
keyboard/mouse drivers.
Video Compensation
Video Compensation allows the user to adjust the equalization on the
Remote Unit to optimize video performance based on the length of
cable being used, as well as other factors that may affect . There are
five segments of various lengths of CAT 5 cables from which to chose;
to achieve the best visibility, please refer to the section titled Keyboard
Shortcut Command Sequences, to adjust the video compensation.
First, note the length of CAT 5 cable you used. Then, use the hotkeys
to adjust the video compensation accordingly. You can use the hotkey
sequence as outlined in the section titled Keyboard Shortcut Command
Sequences.

Using the SV565UTP KVM Extender
This section details how to use your KVM extender at both the host and
remote locations.
Using the Host Unit
The Host Unit performs two functions: it allows a user at the Remote
Unit to assume control of the computer on the Host Unit (Computer A),
and it also permits the user at the Host Unit to use Computer A. It has
three modes that control which user may access the system at a given
time: Auto (the KVM extender looks for keyboard or mouse activity from
both Host and Remote and automatically accepts input from the active
console), Local (only the user seated at the Host Unit can access the
system), and Remote (only the user at the Remote Unit can access
Computer A).
You can use either keyboard shortcuts (if there is a keyboard and
mouse attached) or the mode switch on the top of the Host Unit to
control which user has access to Computer A. By default, the Host Unit
operates in Auto mode, and switches to the next mode in the sequence
each time the switch is pressed as follows:
Having a keyboard and mouse attached to the console ports on
the Host Unit is recommended since it offers access to a number of
extended features.
