The Dell 1U rackmount LED console provides a system administrator's control station mounted directly into a rack enclosure in a slim 1U (1.75-inch) form factor. Combined with an 18.5-inch flat-panel LED screen and a specially designed keyboard and touchpad mouse, this KMM can manage the setup, administration, and maintenance of multiple rackmounted servers.
Ease of installation
The KMM console supports multiple enterprise configurations. It can be connected directly to the keyboard, video, and mouse ports of a single rackmounted server for a simple one-to-one interface, or it can be attached to a rackmounted Dell KVM console switch. A KVM console switch maintains the electrical connection to each server as the KMM rack console is switched by the KVM among the connected systems.
Better for the environment
The Dell 1U rackmount LED console uses an LED-backlit display and is eco-friendly. Unlike the typical LCD console that uses a display backlit by CCFLs (common cathode florescent lamps), the LED console is free of mercury vapor. The console is also RoHS compliant.
Key differentiators
The FPM185 has two USB 3.0 compliant pass-through ports, which provide faster data transmission between the KMM and connected USB devices. The 18.5-inch widescreen display supports both legacy server video modes and widescreen video modes. The touchpad mouse has palm rejection technology that allows users to rest their palms on the touchpad without causing cursor jumps or page skips.
