Product Identity

The APC AP5816 is a 1U rackmount console that combines a 17" Active Matrix TFT LCD with an integrated analog KVM switch. It targets administrators who manage up to sixteen servers from a single keyboard, TouchPad and monitor in a standard rack enclosure.

Practical Limits

The analog KVM switch supports sixteen computer connections, which sets the maximum number of systems controllable from this console. Signal quality and cable length for analog VGA and PS/2 or USB links will constrain the physical distance between the console and each connected server.

Installation Notes

The unit ships with rack mounting brackets, a cable management arm, a KVM cable and an installation guide to assist the initial fit. Analog KVM deployments often encounter issues when server video outputs or keyboard/mouse ports do not match the supplied cabling, requiring additional adapters that are not included.

Questions about this item

Which version of the AP5816 should I choose for managing 16 servers?

The AP5816 is a single model with 16 computer connections and an integrated 17" LCD console, so it covers that requirement in one unit.

What does the 17" active matrix TFT LCD mean when the console is mounted in a rack?

It provides a 17-inch built-in display that slides into a 1U rack space, letting you view and control all connected servers without a separate monitor.

How does the analog KVM switch limit the video signal in practice?

The analog switch passes standard VGA-type video, so maximum resolution and cable distance are bounded by analog signalling rather than digital formats.
