Server Interface Module

The Tripp Lite B055-001-UDP connects a DisplayPort USB server to a Tripp Lite B064-IPG Series KVM switch using Cat5e/6 cable. It enables Virtual Media functionality and supports Common Access Card readers for secure authentication. This module replaces bulky direct-attach cables with a single network-style run.

Firmware Dependency

Operation requires the KVM switch to run firmware v1.0.071 or later. Without that version the server interface will not establish a link or pass Virtual Media and CAC signals. Verify the switch firmware before deployment to avoid compatibility issues.

Extended Cable Runs

The Cat5e/6 connection supports a maximum distance of 164 ft (50 m) between server and KVM switch. This allows the server to remain in a secured rack while the switch sits at a remote console. The lightweight cable eases routing through conduit and improves airflow in dense cabinets.
