2 DSR2035/8035 Switch Installer/User Guide
Reduce cable bulk
With server densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains a major concern for network
administrators.The DSR2035/8035 switches significantly reduce KVM cable volume in the rack by
utilizing the innovative DSRIQ module and single, industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair
(UTP) CAT 5 cabling. This allows a higher server density while providing greater airflow and
cooling capacity.
The DSRIQ module is powered directly from the target device and provides Keep Alive
functionality when the DSR2035/8035 switch is not powered.
The DSRIQ-SRL (serial) module is a DCE device that provides the primary interface between a
serial device and a DSR2035/8035 switch. It provides VT100 terminal emulation, break
suppression and port history in a compact, convenient module.
Control of virtual media-capable appliances
The DSR2035/8035 switch allows you to view, move or copy data located on virtual media to and
from any server. This feature allows you to manage remote systems more efficiently by allowing
operating system installation, operating system recovery, hard drive recovery or duplication, BIOS
updating and server backup.
Virtual media can be connected directly to the DSR2035/8035 switch using one of five USB ports
located on the switch. In addition, virtual media may be connected to any remote workstation that is
running DSView
®
management software and is connected to the DSR2035/8035 switch using an
Ethernet connection.
NOTE: To open a virtual media session with a server, the server must first be connected to the switch using a
virtual media capable DSRIQ module (USB2 or USB2L).
Access the DSR2035/8035 switch via network connection
No special software or drivers are required on the attached, or client, computers.
NOTE: The client connects to the server housing the DSView management software using an Internet browser.
For modem access, you must install DSR Remote Operations software included on the DSView software CD-
ROM (see the
DSView Installer/User Guide
for more information).
Users access the DSR2035/8035 switch and all attached systems via Ethernet or using a V.34, V.90
or V.92 modem from a client computer, such as a PC. Clients can be located anywhere a valid
network connection exists.
Simple access to any target device
When a user accesses the DSView Server software, a listing of all target devices to which the user
has permission to view and manage is displayed. When a user selects a target device from the list,
the video of the selected target device is displayed in a Video Viewer window.
