NTI RACKMUX-V15/17 RACKMOUNT LCD MONITOR WITH KEYBOARD AND MOUSE
1
INTRODUCTION
The RACKMUX-V15/17 Drawer (RACKMUX) consists of a Keyboard, Touchpad, and LCD monitor integrated into a 1RU
rack-mountable drawer with wrist pads. When access to a server rack is needed, the drawer can be pulled out and the display
lifted up like a notebook computer, revealing the keyboard and mouse. When the drawer is not in use, the display can be folded
forward and down so the 1RU drawer can be pushed into the cabinet easily and smoothly, helping to organize and streamline
busy server rooms. The NTI RACKMUX product line offers a range of KVM Drawer solutions ideal for rack and server
management applications, which will ensure reliability and serviceability.
The RACKMUX will switch between USB and PS/2 standards for versatile connection to a CPU. The forward-folding LCD
monitor is offered in either 15” or 17” (designated in the product name as -15 or -17) and the video format can be either VGA or
single-link DVI (designated by –V or –D: example RACKMUX-V15). For user input, the drawer offers a notebook-style keyboard,
wrist-pad, and a three-button touchpad. The keyboard and mouse can be connected using USB and PS/2 cables. USB and PS/2
interfaces will remain active at all times and the keyboard and mouse can be switched, at any time, to use either one. The
RACKMUX-V15/-17 also provides a front panel USB 1.1 port for the connection of an external USB device (such as a flash drive).
The keyboard and mouse interface is compatible with Windows platform CPUs. This multiple interface capability reduces
equipment costs by ensuring that a single console is compatible with various PC/server input devices.
Installing the RACKMUX into any server environment will offer:
• A space saving 1RU design, easily mountable in any 19” cabinet/rack
