Fujitsu s2-1602 KVM switch Rack mounting Black

Introduction
The console switches (Keyboard Video Mouse = KVM) from Fujitsu Technology Solutions are vital in the operation of cluster configurations and server farms in data centers. They offer a cost-optimized, platform and software-independent solution for rack system integration. Both PS/2 and USB interfaces from servers are supported, resulting in possible mixed configurations with different Fujitsu servers in one rack.

KVM console switches S2 and S3
The Enterprise Server S2 / S3 console switches provide a solution positioned between simple mechanical and high-end digital console switches for rack integration. With the S2 / S3 series a maximum of 16 servers can be operated in a rack with up to two consoles in non-blocking mode, locally or with one / two consoles in an IP connection (10/100/1000 Mbit/s) depending on the switch model. In blocking mode (with cascaded switches) up to 256 servers are even possible. Blade Servers from Fujitsu are supported in the same way. The Enterprise Server S2 / S3 console switches are multi-platform switches and only require a single height unit. They are also DDC2B compatible. The Enterprise Server S2 / S3 console switches are primarily designed for integration into 19-inch racks. They round off the 19-inch technology portfolio of Fujitsu servers and are indispensable for the operation of cluster configurations and server farms in data centers. The cost benefits (cutting back on monitors and keyboards that are otherwise needed) are obvious. It is planned to combine S2 / S3 switches with other Fujitsu console switches.
