Product Overview
The Dell 1081AD/2161AD Server Console Switch (SCS) is an analog keyboard,
video, and mouse (KVM) switch that provides flexible, centralized local access
to data center servers. It can also provide centralized remote access to data
center servers when used in conjunction with the optional Remote Access Key
(RAK).
Features and Benefits
Reduce Cable Bulk
With device densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains a major concern
for network administrators. The SCS significantly reduces KVM cable volume in
the rack by utilizing the innovative Server Interface Pod (SIP) and single,
industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling. This allows a higher
device density while providing greater airflow and cooling capacity.
SIP Intelligent Modules
The SCS supports SIPs that are powered directly from the target device and
provide Keep Alive functionality when the SCS is not powered. The SIPs with
CAT 5 design dramatically reduce cable clutter while providing optimal
resolution and video settings. The built-in memory of SIPs simplifies
configuration by assigning and retaining unique device names and Electronic ID
(EID) numbers for each attached device.
PS/2 and USB SIPs are available allowing direct KVM connectivity to devices.
The USB2+CAC SIP is also available. The SCS is offered with 8 or 16 ARI
