Introduction
Overview
The ATEN CS1182 / CS1184 2/4-port USB DVI Dual-Link Secure KVM
Switch offers secure and reliable access for any government/military desktop environment where security is imperative by providing safe switching between computers operating on different secure networks. NIAP-certified to EAL2+, the CS1182 / CS1184 provides 2-port / 4-port models for secure desktop workstation use.
Hardware security includes tamper-evident tape, chassis intrusion detection, and tamper-proof hardware, while software security includes restricted USB connectivity – non HIDs (Human Interface Devices) are ignored when switching – an isolated channel per port that makes it impossible for data to be transferred between secure and unsecure computers, and automatic clearing of the keyboard and mouse buffer.
By combining physical security with controlled USB connectivity, the CS1182
/ CS1184 gives you the means to consolidate multiple workstations of various security classification levels with one keyboard, monitor and mouse (KVM) console.
Note: 1. The National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) is a United
States government initiative to meet the security testing needs of IT consumers and manufacturers. It is operated by the National Security
Agency (NSA) and the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST).
2. The CS1182 / CS1184 additionally satisfies Evaluation Assurance
Level 2 (EAL2+) requirements for Peripheral Sharing Switch (PSS) for Human Interface Devices Protection Profile v2.1.

Hardware Setup
Before You Begin
1. Important safety information regarding the placement of this device is provided on page 15. Please review it before proceeding.
2. Make sure that the power to all devices connected to the installation are turned off. You must unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function.
3. A computer connected to the KVM switch should only be powered on after all of the connections to the device are made
(DVI, USB and audio).
Stacking
The CS1182 / CS1184 features a rugged, metal enclosure which provides stability and allows the unit to stacked on the desktop.The unit can be placed on any level surface that can safely support its weight and the weight of the attached cables. Its enclosure is also strong and stable enough to support a monitor or other desktop item. Ensure that the surface is clean and free of materials that can block the exhaust vents or otherwise interfere with normal operation of the KVM switch.

CS1182 / CS1184 User Manual
Grounding
To prevent damage to your installation it is important that all devices are properly grounded.
Use a grounding wire to ground the CS1182 / CS1184 by connecting one end of the wire to the grounding terminal, and the other end of the wire to a suitable grounded object.

Chapter 2. Hardware Setup
Cable Connection
To set up your CS1182 / CS1184 installation, refer to the installation diagram on the following page (the numbers in the diagrams correspond to the steps, below), and do the following:
1. Plug your USB keyboard and USB mouse into the USB console ports located on the unit’s rear panel.
2. Plug your console monitor into the DVI console port located in the unit’s rear panel and power on the monitor.
3. Plug your microphone and speakers into the console microphone and speaker jacks located on the unit’s front or rear panel. The microphone and speakers plugged into the front panel have priority over those in the rear panel.
4. Using a KVM cable set (not supplied in the package and should be purchased separately), plug the DVI connector into any available DVI socket in the KVM port section of the switch, then plug the accompanying
USB, microphone and speaker connectors into their corresponding USB, microphone, and speaker sockets.
Note: Verify that all the plugs are in the same KVM Port sockets (all in
Port 1, all in Port 2, etc.). Each socket is marked with an appropriate icon.
5. At the other end of the cable, plug the USB, video, microphone, and speaker cables into their respective ports on the computer.
6. Check that the USB seal is still attached to the CAC reader port to prevent unintended usage.
7. Plug the female end of the power cord into the CS1182 / CS1184's power socket; plug the male end into an AC power source.
8. Turn on the product and check that the LEDs light up for 1 second.

Operation
Powering On
When you power on your computers, the CS1182 / CS1184 emulates both a mouse and keyboard on each port and allows your computers to boot normally.
When you power on the CS1182 / CS1184, the default selected port at switch power on is the lowest port with a computer connected. The selected computer will be displayed on the console monitor.
Note: The default connection is determined by the lowest numbered DVI connection that is powered on.
Manual Switching
For increased security, the CS1182 / CS1184 offers manual port-switching only. This is achieved by pressing the port selection pushbuttons located on the unit’s front panel.
Press and release a port selection pushbutton to bring the KVM focus to the
computer attached to its corresponding port (see Port ID Numbering, below).
The Selected LED lights orange to indicate that the computer attached to its corresponding port has the KVM.
Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port on the CS1182 / CS1184 is assigned a port number (1–2 for the CS1182; 1–4 for the CS1184). The port numbers are marked on the rear of
the switch. See Rear View, page 5. The port ID of a computer is derived from
the KVM port number it is connected to.
LED Display
In addition to the Power LED, the CS1182 / CS1184 has port LEDs (Online and Selected) that are built into the port selection pushbuttons to indicate port operating status, as shown in the table below:
