About the Server Access Module
The SAM-enhanced UTP cable design eliminates
complex cabling connections in your switch system.
A single cable delivers real-time, high bandwidth video
for KVM switching up to 1,000 feet between the
server and the user. The SAM's advanced technology
provides built-in memory and security, enabling you
to store server names and prohibit unauthorized
access to the server from the UTP cabling.

Troubleshooting tips
Octopus unit
If a server is unavailable through the Octopus system,
make sure that all Octopus servers and components are
powered up and all cables are correctly attached. If
operation is not restored, test your connection with another
SAM, or with another port on the Octopus system.
Connect one end of the UTP cable to a server port
on the Octopus unit and the other end into the
SAM. If the Octopus unit is not already powered
up, do so now.
