THE SERVSWITCH™FAMILY

Welcome to the ServSwitch™Family!

Thank you for purchasing a BLACK BOX®ServSwitch™Brand KVM switch!

We appreciate your business, and we think you’ll appreciate the many ways that

your new ServSwitch keyboard/video/mouse switch will save you money, time,

and effort.

That’s because our ServSwitch family is all about breaking away from the

traditional, expensive model of computer management. You know, the one-size-

fits-all-even-if-it-doesn’t model that says, “One computer gets one user station,

no more, no less.” Why not a single user station (monitor, keyboard, and mouse)

for multiple computers—even computers of different platforms? Why not a pair

of user stations, each of which can control multiple computers? Why not multiple

user stations for the same computer?

With our ServSwitch products, there’s no reason why not. We carry a broad line

of robust solutions for all these applications. Do you have just two PCs, and need

an economical alternative to keeping two monitors, keyboards, and mice on your

desk? Or do you need to share dozens of computers, including a mix of IBM®PC,

RS/6000®, Apple®Macintosh®, Sun Microsystems®, and SGI®compatibles among

multiple users with different access levels? Does your switch have to sit solidly on

a worktable and use regular everyday cables? Or does it have to be mounted in

an equipment rack and use convenient many-to-one cables? No matter how large

or small your setup is, no matter how simple or how complex, we’re confident we

have a ServSwitch system that’s just right for you.

The ServSwitch™family from Black Box—the one-stop answer for all your KVM-

switching needs!

This manual will tell you all about your new ServSwitch™ Wizard Pro unit,

including how to install, operate, and troubleshoot it. For an introduction to the

ServSwitch Wizard Pro, see Chapter 2. The ServSwitch Wizard Pro product codes

covered in this manual are:

SW644A

SW648A

This manual also includes information about the Remote-Control Module

accessory and the ServSwitch Wizard Pro Rackmount Kit, whose product codes are:
