Thank you for purchasing the Voyager Micro. This product will allow you to place your Monitor and

PS/2 Keyboard and PS/2 Mouse up to 70 meters away from your computer or KVM switch. The Voyager Micro is available in two models PS/2 and USB. All models of the Voyager Micro require that that the keyboard and mouse that you will use be PS/2 type. The USB model supports Windows 98 and later, SUN, SGI, MAC and other operating systems that support a USB interface. Features ¾ Allows you to control a PC from up to 70 meters away, using a single CAT 5, 6 or 7 cable. ¾ Up to 1600 x 1200 @ 75Hz (depending on distance). ¾ Advanced CAT5 technology. ¾ Plug-and-play installation. ¾ No additional software is required for operation. ¾ Transmitter available in PS/2 and USB Operation The Voyager Micro is simple to install, no software is required. Just connect the units up as described in quick setup system guide and you're ready to work. Switch the computer off before wiring up the units. Installation Before connecting your computer to the Voyager Micro Transmitter unit, please ensure that your computer is powered off. Connect your console devices to the Voyager Micro Receiver unit. Cable Requirements The Voyager Micro Transmitter unit will connect to your PCs system unit. Your keyboard, monitor and mouse will connect to the cable sockets on the end of the Voyager Micro Receiver unit. The UTP / STP interconnect cable to connect the Voyager Micro’s Transmitter and Receiver unit is not supplied with the Voyager Micro. If you do not have suitable CAT 5, 6 or 7 UTP or STP cable available, please consult your dealer. The Transmitter and Receiver units are connected by industry standard structured cabling (Category 5, 6 or 7 UTP/STP, 4-pair) terminated with RJ45 connectors. The cable used should be solid trunk cable. Stranded patch cable will give poor results over longer distances. The connector wiring must meet the EIA/TIA 568 standard. CAT5 Wiring Scheme The Transmitter Receiver interconnection cable is terminated in RJ45 connectors and should be wired according to the EIA/TIA 568 (Scheme B preferred) industry standard. The Voyager may function with other wiring schemes, but the video quality may be impaired. Note: The Voyager Micro Receiver requires power. Use only the power supply unit supplied with the Voyager Micro units. Note: Failure to wire the twisted pairs correctly will impair the video quality dramatically and / or prevent correct operation.

Orientation: Looking into the RJ45 socket pin 1 is on the left and pin 8 on the right.
