STATION EXTENDERS
2.1 Description
Your Station Extender package includes two Station
Extender units and this manual. There may also be
an autosensing power adapter (PS255A) and CPU
or keyboard cables, depending on which model you
have ordered. The Station Extenders connect to
each other with a LINK cable (part number
EHN250-xxxx). This cable is purchased separately
and is required for installation.
Station Extenders work in pairs, and can be thought
of as a transmitter unit and a receiver unit connected
by a single cable. Each unit plugs into one end of the
equipment to be interconnected. The two units are
then connected with the LINK cable. The Station
Extender units are truly plug-and-play. Once
connected to the equipment, the extender system
acts like a regular cable. There are no user
installation steps other than connecting the units.
The figure on the next page shows the Station
Extender. There are 3 types of Station Extenders.
AC250A is used on the CPU side. AC251A is used

on the keyboard side. AC252A (pictured below) is
used with ServSwitches. There is a DB25 connector at
each end of the Station Extender. One end is always
a male connector and is marked LINK CABLE. The
LINK cable is always a female-to-female cable and
connects to this end. The other DB25 connector is
either male or female, depending on the model. It
connects to your equipment through a cable or
directly to a ServSwitch.

AC250A has a female connector at the equipment
end marked COMPUTER. AC251A has a female
connector at the equipment end marked
KEYBOARD-MONITOR-MOUSE. AC252A has
a male connector at the equipment end marked
SERVSWITCH. The genders of the connectors
have been chosen to make it difficult to connect
the system incorrectly.
The green LED on the side of the unit lights when
the Station Extender is receiving power. When used
with ServSwitches, which indicate CPU power on
the front of the switch, the power state of the CPU
is passed through correctly, regardless of whether the
Station Extender is powered on or not. AC251A has a
power jack on it for connecting a transformer, which
powers the keyboard and mouse.
The units are most commonly sold as kits with any
cables or transformers bundled in (see Section 2.3).
The LINK cable is always sold separately.
Transformer power cords are also purchased
separately—call Black Box.
There are four applications for the Station Extender
(see Chapter 3). Connect the Station Extenders and
cables as shown in the proper diagram.
