Search Tips...

Keyword Search
Our search engine uses any or all keywords typed in the text box to give you product search results.
For instance, typing in kvm will give you a broader set of results than kvm switch cables.

Note, however, that keywords in quotes are treated as a single phrase and will not be evaluated individually.

Booleans (AND, +, OR, NOT, -) are not supported.

Also, some keywords will not return results, and may automatically correct to a similar keyword.

Part Number Search Selection
Select this Search in the drop down box to search by part number instead of keywords.

Wild Card Search
The * character is only supported in a limited capacity. Using whole words is the best approach whenever possible.

"New Search" Radio Button
Search the entire section that you are currently in.

"Search Within Results" Radio Button
Enter keywords or a part number to limit your results within the previously searched results.


Other features

A list of all matching product categories or resources will appear in the upper left corner of the results page, when applicable, to help you further narrow your results, if you desire.

Use the "sort by" drop-down menu on the results page to sort by "most popular" and price (low to high or high to low)
in the store section.

  • Description

    ServSelect III KVM Switch (2 x 16), 2 Users x 16 Ports


    Quick Facts

  • Supports PS/2® and USB keyboards and mice.
  • Access 16 multiplatform servers.
  • Supports VT100™.
  • Cascade KVM switches to control up to 256 servers.

  • Further Details

  • Works with low-cost PS/2® and USB cables.
  • Choose from three operation modes.
  • Provides 1600 x 1280 resolution.
  • Convenient on-screen menus.
  • Built-in password protection and keep-alive functionality.
  • Flash upgradable.
  • Rackmountable.

  • With the ServSelect™ III 2 x 16, two users can access up to 16 servers and network devices from USB or PS/2® consoles. Plus you can cascade up to 16 ServSelect III units to control up to 128 or 256 servers in your system! Simply put, the ServSelect III is ideal for IT departments where two people need access to multiple servers.

    This two-user switch comes with a pair of analog port sets to accommodate two monitors and a pair of USB or PS/2 keyboards and mice—or a mix of both. Both users can control, switch between, troubleshoot, and reboot all connected servers and other ServSwitch™ units.

    Convenient on-screen menus.
    Intuitive on-screen menus enable you to configure your system and select servers and other switches. You can easily identify each server by a unique name, ID number, or port number.

    Three operational modes enable you to manage your switching activities: Scan, Broadcast, and Switch.

    In Scan mode, the ServSelect III sequentially displays the status of up to 16 servers on-screen. You select which servers are scanned in a sequence and how many seconds each is displayed.

    In Broadcast mode, a user can simultaneously control more than one server to ensure that all selected servers receive the same input.

    In Switch mode, either user can select and share any server at any time.

    Keep-alive power safeguards, password protection, and more.
    The ServSelect III is equipped with robust features that keep your system running and secure. BIOS-level access ensures connection to the attached servers, regardless of the servers’ health or their operating system. What’s more, the ServSelect III’s keep-alive safeguard enables the attached servers to continue functioning even if the switch experiences a power failure.

    Protect your system with a screen-saver password for each user. When a user station is unused for a period of time, the monitor enters a screen-saving mode and can only be unlocked by typing a password.

    The ServSelect III is also flash upgradable, which means it’s built for your system’s future. Upgrade your firmware at any time by using the switch’s simple update utility.

    Optimal video resolution.
    You get optimal 1600 x 1280 resolution for analog VGA, SVGA, and XGA when you connect a user station to the ServSelect III with a 10-foot (3-m) cable. But keep in mind that the longer the cable, the lower the resolution. For example, resolution is a maximum of 800 x 600 when the connection is 50 feet (15.2 m).

    Although the system adjusts automatically to the optimal video parameters, you can fine-tune the image manually and set refresh and frame rates. The ServSelect III supports Display Data Channel (DDC) Plug-and-Play, which autoconfigures the monitor and is compliant with the VESA DDC2B standard.

    The genius of ServSelect III Cables.
    Make connections to individual servers with nonflashable ServSelect III Cables (sold separately). These CAT5 cables provide keyboard, video, and mouse connectivity. Simply connect a cable’s RJ-45 end to your ServSelect III and the other end to your server.

    Mulitplatform connectivity.
    To connect VT100™, PS/2, USB, or Sun® servers more than 15 feet (4.5 m) from your ServSelect III, order our ServSelect Server Access Modules (SAMs) (sold separately). Powered by their connected servers, the modules “keep alive” even if the ServSelect III loses its power. Order one for each switch-to-CPU connection.

    The modules feature built-in KVM connectors. All you need is CAT5 cable to link your ServSelect III with these modules. All ServSelect SAMs are flash upgradable to keep your system up to date.

    Other available options.
    If only one person needs to access up to eight servers, see the 1 x 8 version (KV21008A-R2) of the ServSelect III. If you only need dual-access to up to eight servers, there is an 8-port version of ServSelect III (KV22008A-R2).

  • ServSelect III USB Cable
  • ServSelect III SAMs
