Product information for BlackBox KV1403A:
The Server Access Module (SAM) type KV1403A from BlackBox is an accessory module for KVM switch systems, connecting servers to a ServSwitch system via CATx cables. It enables central control of multiple servers using a common monitor, keyboard, and mouse, with servers able to be placed up to 50 meters away from the switch. The module is specifically designed for USB-based servers and simultaneously provides audio transmission via a 3.5 mm jack connector. The connection is made through an RJ-45 connector, which is connected to the server port of the ServSwitch using an affordable CATx cable. This allows for cost-effective and simple installation without additional power supply, as the module is powered via the CPU interface.
Applications
The SAM KV1403A is used in server environments where central, monitorable control of multiple computers is required. It is particularly suitable for IT infrastructures in data centers, server rooms, or office buildings where the physical proximity of servers to the operator’s workstation is not feasible. The maximum distance of 50 meters allows for flexible server placement, for example in a separate server room, while the operator remains at the main workstation. The support for audio via the 3.5 mm jack connector also makes the module suitable for applications requiring sound transmission, such as maintenance of systems with integrated speakers or transmission of system alerts.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The module features a USB Type-A connector (male) for keyboard and mouse connection, an HD15 connector (male) for monitor connection, and a 3.5 mm audio output. These connections enable direct connection to a standard PC or server equipped with USB peripherals and a VGA monitor port. Connection to the ServSwitch is made via an RJ-45 port, connected with a CATx cable (e.g., Cat 5e or Cat 6). The maximum resolution is 1900 x 1440 pixels, sufficient for most office and server applications. The Keep alive function ensures the module continues to receive power even if the ServSwitch fails, preventing complete interruption of the server connection.
Technology Explained Simply
The SAM operates as a local interface adapter, capturing signals from the keyboard, mouse, and monitor from the server and transmitting them via CATx cable to the central ServSwitch. Power is supplied via the CPU interface, eliminating the need for a separate power source. The Keep alive function maintains power supply through an internal capacitor, keeping the module active even if the ServSwitch fails. This is especially important to prevent complete loss of server connection during power outages or switch failures. The module’s firmware is flash-upgradable, meaning future function enhancements or bug fixes can be implemented via software updates without replacing the module.
Compatibility and Accessories
The SAM KV1403A is compatible with ServSwitch models CX, CX IP, CX Uno, CX Uno IP, as well as CATmix extender receivers. It can be mixed with other SAM modules to integrate different server types (PS/2, USB, Sun) within a single system. A separate SAM is required for each server connected to the ServSwitch. The use of CATx cables (e.g., Cat 5e or Cat 6) is recommended to ensure signal quality and maximum reach of 50 meters.
Installation and Mounting
Installation involves connecting the SAM directly to the server via USB, VGA, and audio ports. The RJ-45 end is connected to the corresponding server port on the ServSwitch using a CATx cable. Wiring is simple and requires no special tools. Power is supplied via the CPU interface, so no additional power source is needed. The Keep alive function ensures continuous power to the module, even if the ServSwitch fails.
Operational Advantages
The SAM KV1403A enables flexible and cost-effective server management over long distances. The use of CATx cables reduces installation costs and simplifies cabling. The Keep alive function increases system reliability by maintaining the server connection even if the ServSwitch fails. The flash-upgradable firmware allows future enhancements without hardware replacement. Support for audio via the 3.5 mm jack connector extends functionality for applications requiring sound transmission.
