ServSwitch DKM
The Black Box DKM Digital KVM Switch is the access solution in dynamic
environments, where picture quality is everything. Utilising a fully
digitised transport system, the DKM does not suffer from attenuation or
skew, and so causes no smearing or fuzzies. Supporting full HD video,
audio and serial over up to 140m on CATx cable, or up to 10km on
single-mode fibre, the DKM provides a reliable and secure transport and
access system.

Digital KVM Switching — Supporting up to 1920 x 1200 resolution at 60Hz presented on
DVI-D interfaces.
Modular Concept — Expandable through either 8-port CATx modules or 8-Port SFP modules.
Dual Redundant Power Supplies — Designed to keep you running 24/7 with SNMP alerts to
indicate system status.
RS-232/V.24 and Stereo Audio — Available with the option to support stereo audio in both
directions, and RS-232/V.24 protocol for serial devices.
Multi-Head Systems — The DKM supports multi-head systems and will switch all the associated
monitors simultaneously.
Security — Individual profiles per user prevent unauthorised access to attached workstations or
servers. Plus, in high security environments, all the cabling can be fibre to prevent sniffing.
DDC Read Channel — By reading the DDC channel information from the server and the monitor,
the DKM supports true EDID information, guaranteeing the optimum plug-and-play support.
Multiple Control Options — As well as the menu driven interface, the DKM also supports hot
key control, front panel display with active remote, remote control via the RS-232/V.24 interface,
and remote control via the IP interface.
USB HID Support — The DKM features native Human Interface Device support and includes
tablets, touch-screens and joysticks, as well as, keyboards and mice.
Crystal Clear Image Quality — The DKM is a fully digital switch support DVI-D and because it it
fully digital, it does not suffer from skew, attenuation, smearing or fuzzies unlike traditional KVM
switches.
