Black Box KV0424A-R2 KVM Switch - 1 Local Console + 4 Users, 24 Servers
Overview
The Black Box KV0424A-R2 is a high-density KVM switch designed for managing multiple servers from a single local console and up to four remote users. This unit consolidates control, reducing rack space and simplifying operations in environments with a significant server footprint, such as data centers or enterprise server rooms. It utilizes CatX cabling for remote connections, offering flexibility in placement up to 100 meters from the servers.
Compatibility
This KVM switch is designed to connect to a wide range of servers supporting standard video (VGA, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort via adapters), USB, and PS/2 interfaces. It is compatible with most operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS. The specific server connection modules (CCM modules) are sold separately and must be chosen based on the server's video and peripheral ports.
Installation Notes
Installation requires connecting the switch to the local console (monitor, keyboard, mouse) and then running CatX cables from the switch's remote user ports to the desired server connection modules. Server connection modules are then attached to the target servers. Ensure proper cable management for the CatX runs to maintain signal integrity over the 100-meter distance. Power is supplied via an included AC adapter.
