1 ServSwitch DKM DVI-D KVM Matrix Switch Delivers instant switching in four different modes for data center, control room, and classroom settings. BLACK BOX Scalable matrix KVM switch supports up to 1024 ports with fiber or copper cable.

2 Features Supports high-resolution DVI-D and USB-style keyboard/mouse, plus USB peripheral and audio options. Maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz. Connects via ServSwitch DVI CATx KVM Extenders (ACS4001A-R2) or ServSwitch DVI Fiber Optic Extenders (ACS4001A-R2-MM or -SM), or other CATx and fiber KVM extenders. Available in 19" housings for high-density applications. Virtually instantaneous switching and the transmission of high-quality DVI-D signals are what make the Black Box ServSwitch DKM switching system a milestone in innovative KVM switching. ServSwitch DKM is a scalable matrix switch that supports DVI-D and transmits USB Human Interface Device (HID), stereo audio, and RS-232 signals. Extend KVM signals up to 460 feet (140 m) over CATx, up to 400 meters ( ft.) over multimode fiber, or up to 10 kilometers (6.2 mi.) over single-mode fiber. Certain modes of the single-head KVM switching support a transparent serial interface at up to 19 kbps and hardware handshaking. Use it to control a single device requiring full hardware handshaking or up to three devices without handshaking. In dual-head mode, devices support TxD and RxD only, with no hardware handshaking. The ServSwitch DKM features hotkey controls and an on-screen display (OSD). Use the OSD to name connected devices and configure the system. A front-panel display with remote control is also available. Switching can be done remotely via the RS-232 serial interface, hotkeys, the OSD, or the TCP/IP interface. For ultimate plug-and-play support, ServSwitch DKM has DDC read capability to receive true EDID information from the attached displays. The digital ServSwitch DKM does not need skew compensation like analog KVM switches do; the maximum video resolution is supported over the full distance. Setup and Operation Modes You can configure the ServSwitch DKM DVI-D KVM Switch in several ways. Connect the switch to CATx or fiber cabling, which then connects to the /server with a local transmitter and, on the other side, connects to a receiver at the USB keyboard/mouse/monitors (user stations).

3 Matrix (Crosspoint) Switching The DKM switch can be configured as 32 input to 16 output ports. Transmitters are installed at each of the s, and DVI-D, serial, and audio signals go up to 10 kilometers (6.2 mi.) depending on the cabling used. Control the switch with the serial (RS-232) port, hotkeys, the OSD, or via the built-in Web interface. The matrix switch mode is especially ideal for post-production and digital signage applications. KVM Switch The DKM switch operates as a KVM switch in three configurations: 16 users to 32 s (single-head); 8 users to 16 s (dual-head); and 4 users to 8 s (quad-head). When used as a KVM switch, the DKM is cascadable: singlehead, up to 1024 ports from one monitor; dual-head, up to 512 ports from two monitors; quad-head, up to 256 ports from four monitors. Share Mode Share Mode enables more than one user to have access to the same at the same time. This is ideal in classrooms or conference rooms where an instructor or presenter wants to use a laptop and a projector. It also gives an IT administrator access to a user s monitor for troubleshooting or applying updates. Additionally, the KVM switch enables port locking, meaning you can partner ports and ensure they switch in tandem. This way, when you switch s, monitors being used in Share Mode follow automatically. Control Room Mode You can connect the KVM switch to servers and monitors. The OSD enables the user to switch monitors between s, and the hotkeys enable the user to switch between one keyboard/mouse for all the monitors. You can select from the list of available s, and the users don t need to know the s IP address to use the keyboard/mouse. Users can use Share Mode in this configuration also, giving access to more than one user at the same time.

4 Student/Teacher System One of the modes that truly sets DKM above the rest is the Student/Teacher system. Up to 15 students: By connecting the student workstations with twisted-pair CATx cable, the teacher can monitor each student s work at his/her station. Additionally, the teacher can display to any of the student monitors, or share any of the workstation monitors with each. In this configuration, too, the teacher can monitor each student at his/her station. What s included: (1) ServSwitch DKM switch with (1) internal power supply (2) 6-ft.

Single-Head KVM/ USB 2.0 Mode ServSwitch DKM, 16x32 (ACX1632) CATx or Fiber Cables CATx or Fiber Cables ServSwitch DKM Accessories: Make KVM extensions go farther, and save space and money. ServSwitch KVM Extender/Cross-Repeaters Make your DKM or other KVM switch extensions go even farther, over a mix of copper and fiber cabling. Extend the length of your KVM extensions with these extender/cross-repeaters. Work with a number of ServSwitch KVM extenders, including the transmitters and receivers for ServSwitch DKM DVI-D KVM Matrix Switches. Support dual-head extensions; a second repeater is required for the second video channel. Choose from five different KVM Extender/Cross-Repeaters for DKM KVM extension. Place a KVM console even farther from a backracked or server. Transmits signals without video degradation or frame delay. Enables users to keep s secure and farther from consoles located in public areas. Passes DVI video and graphic interface signals, boosting video farther even at high resolutions (1920 x 1200). Easy to install and use. The ACX1000 The ACX1000 is a CATx to CATx extender/cross-repeater that doubles the length of CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 cable between ServSwitch Single DVI CATx KVM Extender transmitters and receivers or between these extenders and a ServSwitch DKM DVI-D KVM Matrix Switch. It stretches transmitter-toreceiver communications up to 918 feet (280 m)*. ACX1000

7 The ACX1000-CM The ACX1000-CM supports console-to- distances up to 800 meters ( ft.) over 50-micron multimode fiber cable*. It's great for extending KVM signals across factory floors or in high-security applications. ACX1000-CM The ACX1000-DM With the ACX1000-DM, add two long-distance fiber runs between the transmitter and receiver of your ServSwitch Dual DVI CATx KVM Extender. Supports console-to- distances up to 800 meters ( ft.) over 50-micron multimode fiber cable*. ACX1000-DM The ACX1000-MS The ACX1000-MS enables you to add a single-mode fiber run between transmitters and receivers of a compatible ServSwitch DVI Multimode Fiber KVM Extender. The extender/cross-repeater needs to be used in a pair as a mode converter to extend KVM communications much farther. ACX1000-MS The ACX1000-MM To double the cabling distance between a fiber extender transmitter and receiver, choose the ACX1000-MM. It extends KVM signals as far as 800 meters ( ft.) over 50-micron multimode cable. It is ideal for remotely locating KVM workstations in factory or process engineering applications. *NOTE: Maximum distance depends on the quality of the CATx cable or fiber cable used.

8 ServSwitch Fiber CWDM Mux/Demux Data is not affected at either end. Add separately available plug-in SFP transceivers to suit your fiber requirements for other devices (LFP254 LFP257). No power supply required. Small footprint chassis. Save space and money by reducing data transmission to one pair of fiber strands. Extend single-mode fiber runs up to 40 kilometers (25 mi.). Combines and sends four bidirectional data streams simultaneously over a single fiber pair. Use in pairs. The second unit demuxes the combined signal for output to four remote devices. Enables you to economically make better use of long-distance fiber runs. Great for industrial and electronically noisy areas, and high-security government applications. Can be used with KVM extenders to link four s to four remotely located KVM consoles. Equipped with LC connectors for input/output of fiber channels at varying wavelengths. tech specs Operating Environment Temperature: 41 to 113º F (5 to 45º C); Humidity: 80%, noncondensing RoHS Compliance Yes Connectors Each unit: (5) pairs of LC Power None required Size 1.7"H x 8"W x 5.6"D (4.3 x 20.5 x 14.2 cm) Weight 3.5 lb.
