iKVM Module

The optional Avocent iKVM analogue switch module includes the following
features:
• Local iKVM access can be remotely disabled on a per blade basis, using the
blade's iDRAC interface (access is enabled by default).
NOTE:
both the iDRAC interface and iKVM (users connected to a blade's console via
iDRAC and the iKVM sees the same video and be able to type commands). If
this sharing is not desired, this can be disabled via the iDRAC console
interface.
• The following connectors:
– One VGA connector. The iKVM supports a video display resolution
range from 640x480 at 60 Hz up to 1280x1024x65,000 colors
(noninterlaced) at 75 Hz.
– Two USB ports for keyboard and mouse.
NOTE:
– RJ-45 ACI port for tiering with Dell™ and Avocent analog KVM and
KVM over IP switches with ARI ports.
NOTE:
cabling, it is not an Ethernet network interface port. It is only used for
connection to external KVM switches with Analog Rack Interface (ARI) ports,
and does not support native KVM over IP.
