Welcome
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the AdderView RDX Rack Drawer which combines
screen, keyboard, mouse and sixteen port KVM switching while occupying only
a single rack slot. The screen and keyboard slide out to provide quick access to
all systems when working in the server room. All models also facilitate either
remote or global access for authorised users who are away from the server
room.
All KVM links to servers are made using Adder Computer Access Modules
(CAMs) that attach to the rack drawer rear panel via standard CATx cables.
These make installation straightforward while ensuring that all cabling remains
neat and uncluttered.
Certain sections of this manual refer to other Adder user guides for details about
the KVM module fitted within your rack drawer. These other guides are stored
on the CD-ROM supplied with your rack drawer and are also available on the
Adder website.

2 Attach the supplied left and right mounting brackets to the positions in your
rack frame where the cage nuts are located and adjust the bracket depths to
suit the depth of the rack.
For each mounting bracket:
• UsetwoM6screwsandcupwasherstoxthebrackettotherearrackrail.

Connecting the rack drawer
All server, network and power connections are located at the rear of the unit.
The EXTernal link (network or remote user)
The single RJ-45 socket labelled as EXT is used to allow either global or remote
users to login and control connected servers. The EXT port provides one of the
following links (dependant on the model of rack drawer):
• Anethernetnetworklink,labelled ,
or
• Aremoteextenderlink(toattachanAdderX200),labelled
KVM
only
. Note: This
port is NOT a network port.
To connect the external link
1 Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the rack drawer.
2 Connect a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link cable to the port labelled EXT:

Computer access module links
There are sixteen RJ-45 sockets labelled as COMPUTER CONNECTIONS on the
rear panel. Each socket supports a CAT 5, 5e or 6 link to an individual server
system.
Note: The maximum length of the CAM cable can be up to 10 metres (32 feet).
For models RD1716, and RD1916, also ensure that the overall distance between
a remote user (connected to a remote extender) and any CAM unit/server does
not exceed 300 metres (980 feet).
1 Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the rack drawer.

For more information about connecting CAMs, please refer to the
appropriate Adder user guide as appropriate to the rack drawer model being
used:
• RDxx16yy --->useAdderView CATx 1000 user guide,

Power connection
The rack drawer is provided with a power adapter capable of supplying the
display monitor, keyboard and in-built KVM module.
IMPORTANT: You must only use the manufacturer approved power adapter with
the rack drawer.
IMPORTANT: Due to the length of the power cable, if the rack drawer is
mounted high in the rack it may not be possible to place the power adapter at
floor level. In this case it is important to mount it securely and in such a manner
that it is not suspended from its output cable.
To connect the power adapter
1 Attach the output lead from the power adapter to the 12V socket on the
rear panel of the rack drawer:

adapter.
2 Connect the IEC connector of the supplied country-specific power lead to
the socket of the power adapter.
3 Connect the power cord to a nearby power outlet.
Note: Both the rack drawer and the power adapter generate heat when
in operation and will become warm to the touch. Do not enclose them or
place them in locations where air cannot circulate to cool the equipment. Do
not operate the equipment in ambient temperatures exceeding 35oC. Do not
place the products in contact with equipment whose surface temperature
exceeds 35oC.
To disconnect the power adapter
When removing the power connection be aware that the plug has a locking
mechanism to prevent accidental disconnects. To remove, pull back the flat top
segment of the plug body to disengage the lock and gently pull the whole plug
from the power socket:
