Rack-mountable 16-port KVM switch

The Avocent AV2030-G01 is a 1U rack-mountable KVM switch providing 16 computer connections for small and midsize data centres. It supports dual local users and includes a single network port for remote management. The unit accommodates PS/2, USB, Sun and serial server interfaces.

Video resolution capped at 1280 x 1024

The switch drives monitors up to SXGA resolution at 1280 x 1024 pixels. This ceiling determines whether the appliance matches the display requirements of the connected servers. Higher-resolution consoles will not be supported by this model.

Steady operation within 1U chassis

The 1.8-inch high chassis houses the switching fabric and power supply without active cooling specifications in the data. Continuous multi-server access relies on passive thermal management inside the rack. Virtual media and local USB peripherals remain available during extended sessions.

Questions about this item

What does the 1280 x 1024 resolution mean when I connect servers to this switch?

The switch passes video up to 1280 x 1024 at SXGA, so each connected server displays at that resolution or lower on the shared monitor.

How does the single RJ-45 port limit remote access in practice?

One RJ-45 network port provides a single LAN connection for remote KVM-over-IP management of all 16 servers.

What rack space and depth does the 1.8 by 17.0 by 11.0 inch chassis require?

The unit occupies 1U of height, fits a standard 17.0-inch wide mounting, and needs 11.0 inches of rack depth.
