Product Bac kground and Overview
With Dell 180AS and 2160AS console switches, IT server administrators can monitor and control multiple
servers with ease. Designed to increase productivity, the switches help ensure that IT resources
are fully utilized — allowing the business to reap maximum returns from critical technology investments.
The 180AS is a multi-platform solution with eight inputs, while the 2160AS has 16 inputs. By attaching
additional expansion options to the system, administrators can achieve true pay-as-you grow scalability in
the corporate data center.
Dell’s PowerEdge console switches provide simple, reliable and convenient control across all major server
platforms. Administrators can use keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) commands to centrally manage
servers from an intuitive user interface. The switches deliver a significant reduction of cable volume as well
as powerful on-screen management for easy system configuration. The 2160AS also supports up to two
simultaneous users, which saves time, energy and management costs.
Both switches are rack-mountable for flexible connectivity in the data center. They feature eight or
16 CAT 5/RJ-45 ports for full-featured KVM management. Through the local ports, administrators can
obtain enhanced video quality of 1024 x 768.
