1  Preface

The Fujitsu Siemens KVM series2-1611 (KVM s2-1611) switches combine analog 

and digital technology to provide flexible, centralized control of data center serv

-

ers. This solution delivers secure digital access and flexible server management 

from anywhere at any time.

Throughout the documentation you will see the word “appliance” used 

generically to describe the KVM s2-1611 switch.

The KVM s2-1611 consists of a rack mountable keyboard, video and mouse 

(KVM) switch configurable for analog or digital connectivity. Each KVM s2-1611 

has 16 Fujitsu Siemens Rack Interface (RI) ports for connecting devices and oper-

ates over standard LAN connections. Access servers across a 100BaseT Ethernet 

connection or directly through an analog port on the KVM s2-1611 for analog KVM 

connectivity and administration. Video resolutions through the analog port can be 

up to 1600 x 1280 with an end-to-end cable length of up to 15 meters (50 feet). 

Digital users can achieve video resolution of up to 1280 x 1024 with a cable length 

of up to 10 meters (32 feet) between the KVM s2-1611 and the server.

KVM series2-Adapter

The Fujitsu Siemens KVM series2-Adapters (KVM s2-Adapters) with CAT 5 design 

dramatically reduce cable clutter, while providing optimal digital display resolution 

and video settings. The built-in memory of the KVM s2-Adapter simplifies 

configuration by assigning and retaining unique server names or Electronic ID 

(EID) numbers for each attached server. This integrated intelligence enhances 

security and prevents unauthorized access to a server through cable manipulation. 

The KVM s2-Adapter is powered directly from the server and provides Keep Alive 

functionality even if the KVM s2-1611 is not powered.

Access via network connection

No special software or drivers are required on the attached computers. Digital 

users access the KVM s2-1611 and all attached systems via Ethernet from a PC 

running the KVM series2-Client (KVM s2-Client or Client) software. This software 

resides on the user’s PC only. User PCs can be located anywhere a valid network 

connection exists. The KVM s2-1611 can be configured on a separate network 

from your data network, allowing access to your servers even if your applications 

network is down.

Point and click control with KVM s2-Client software

The KVM s2-Client software is a cross-platform management application that 

allows you to view and control the KVM s2-1611 and all attached servers. 
The Client software provides secure authentication, data transfers and username/
