Question
Answer
Must I use the extended local port?
No. The extended local port is an optional
feature and is disabled by default. Use the
"Local Port Settings" page to enable it. You
can also disable the standard local port if you
are not going to use it for added security.
Dual Power Supplies
Does Dominion KX II have a dual
power option?
Yes. All Dominion KX II models come equipped
with dual AC inputs and power supplies with
automatic failover. Should one of the power
inputs or power supplies fail, then the KX II will
automatically switch to the other.
Does the power supply used by
Dominion KX II automatically
detect voltage settings?
Yes. Dominion KX II’s power supply can be
used in AC voltage ranges from 100240 volts,
at 5060 Hz.
If a power supply or input fails, will
I be notified?
The Dominion KX II front panel LED will notify
the user of a power failure. An entry will also
be sent to the audit log and displayed on the
KX remote client user interface. If configured
by the administrator, then SNMP or syslog
events will be generated.

Question
Answer
What type of remote power
control capabilities does
Dominion KX II offer?
Raritan’s intelligent PDUs can be
connected to the Dominion KX II to
provide power control of target servers
and other equipment. For servers, after a
simple one-time configuration step, just
click on the server name to power on, off
or to recycle a hung server.
What type of power strips
does Dominion KX II
support?
Raritan’s Dominion PX

connect the PM series of power strips to
the Dominion KX II as these power strips
do not provide outlet-level switching.

connected to a Dominion KX
II?
Up to eight PDUs can be connected to a
Dominion KX II device.
