Dell DAV2216-G01 16 Port Analog KVM Switch with Dual Local User Support

The Dell DAV2216-G01 KVM Switch is designed to provide centralized management of multiple servers in enterprise server environments. It allows administrators to control several servers using a single keyboard, monitor and mouse console.

This model supports 16 server ports, enabling up to sixteen servers to be connected and managed from the same console. The system helps reduce hardware clutter and simplifies server administration within racks or data center environments.

The switch supports two simultaneous local users, allowing two administrators to manage connected servers at the same time using separate consoles. This feature is useful in enterprise environments where multiple system administrators may need access to server systems.

The DAV2216-G01 operates as an analog KVM switch but can be upgraded to digital KVM functionality, enabling remote access and management of connected servers through network connectivity when the optional upgrade module is installed.

It uses Server Interface Pods and CAT5 cabling for connections between servers and the KVM switch, helping reduce cable complexity and improve rack airflow.

The unit is built in a 1U rack mount form factor, making it suitable for installation in standard 19 inch server racks used in data centers and server rooms.

The device is powered by a single internal power supply, ensuring stable operation for enterprise server management.

With its scalable connectivity and upgrade capability, the Dell DAV2216-G01 KVM switch provides a flexible solution for centralized server administration.
