All-in-One Control Solution

The B021-000-17 combines a full keyboard, numeric keypad, touchpad and 17-in. color LCD in a 1U rack drawer for compact storage and easy access. No server-resident software is required, so server performance and reliability are never compromised. The B021-000-17 is also compatible with most PS/2 and USB KVM switches, making it easy to integrate with an existing system.

Space-Saving Design

The B021-000-17 can be mounted in racks with depths ranging from 27 to 42 inches (rackmounting hardware included). The console is housed in an all-metal 1U sliding drawer. Simply pull it out and flip up the screen when needed, and store it back in the rack when finished. This keeps the keyboard and screen from blocking access to rack equipment when the console is not in use.

Supports Multiple Platforms

The B021-000-17 supports both PS/2 and USB connections (USB to PS/2 adapter cable included). Because compatibility is based on common hardware standards rather than system software dependencies, almost any platform can be accommodated, including UNIX®, Linux, Windows®, Mac OS®, Solaris™ and more. The B021-000-17 is also compatible with most KVMs that are equipped with PS/2 and USB console ports. This enables the B021-000-17 to be integrated into an existing system, providing enhanced management capabilities without a major investment in new hardware.

High-Resolution LCD

The B021-000-17's 17-in. LCD screen supports video resolutions of up to 1280 x 1024 at 75Hz. DDC, DDC2 and DDC2B emulation allows the video settings of the connected computer to be automatically adjusted for optimal display on the console monitor.
