1 Preface
The Fujitsu Siemens KVM series2-1611 (KVM s2-1611) switches combine analog
and digital technology to provide exible, centralized control of data center servers. This solution delivers secure digital access and exible server management
from anywhere at any time.
Throughout the documentation you will see the word “appliance” used
generically to describe the KVM s2-1611 switch.
The KVM s2-1611 consists of a rack mountable keyboard, video and mouse
(KVM) switch congurable for analog or digital connectivity. Each KVM s2-1611
has 16 Fujitsu Siemens Rack Interface (RI) ports for connecting devices and operates over standard LAN connections. Access servers across a 100BaseT Ethernet
connection or directly through an analog port on the KVM s2-1611 for analog KVM
connectivity and administration. Video resolutions through the analog port can be
up to 1600 x 1280 with an end-to-end cable length of up to 15 meters (50 feet).
Digital users can achieve video resolution of up to 1280 x 1024 with a cable length
of up to 10 meters (32 feet) between the KVM s2-1611 and the server.
KVM series2-Adapter
The Fujitsu Siemens KVM series2-Adapters (KVM s2-Adapters) with CAT 5 design
dramatically reduce cable clutter, while providing optimal digital display resolution
and video settings. The built-in memory of the KVM s2-Adapter simplies
conguration by assigning and retaining unique server names or Electronic ID
(EID) numbers for each attached server. This integrated intelligence enhances
security and prevents unauthorized access to a server through cable manipulation.
The KVM s2-Adapter is powered directly from the server and provides Keep Alive
functionality even if the KVM s2-1611 is not powered.
Access via network connection
No special software or drivers are required on the attached computers. Digital
users access the KVM s2-1611 and all attached systems via Ethernet from a PC
running the KVM series2-Client (KVM s2-Client or Client) software. This software
resides on the user’s PC only. User PCs can be located anywhere a valid network
connection exists. The KVM s2-1611 can be congured on a separate network
from your data network, allowing access to your servers even if your applications
network is down.
Point and click control with KVM s2-Client software
The KVM s2-Client software is a cross-platform management application that
allows you to view and control the KVM s2-1611 and all attached servers.
The Client software provides secure authentication, data transfers and username/

Preface
password storage. By utilizing a browser interface for navigation with an intuitive
split-screen interface, this software provides you with a single point of access
for your entire system. From here, you can manage the KVM s2-1611, install a
new KVM s2-1611 or launch a video session to a system server. Multiple servers
can be accessed by one user; each additional computer’s video will appear in a
separate program window.
Throughout the documentation and KVM s2-Client user interface, you will
see the word “appliance” used generically to describe the
KVM s2-1611 switch.

2 Safety notes
This chapter provides radio frequency and safety information for your appliance.
2.1 Radio frequency information
United States radio frequency information
Warning: Changes or modications to this unit not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority
to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
Canadian radio frequency information
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio
noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference
Regulations of the Canadian Department
of Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques
dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la
classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique
édicté par le Ministère des Communications du Canada.

2.2 Precautions and rack mount safety
Avoiding potential video and/or keyboard problems when using
the KVM s2-1611
• If the building has 3-phase AC power, ensure that the computer
and monitor are on the same phase. For best results, they should
be on the same circuit.
• Use only Fujitsu Siemens-supplied cable to connect computers and
KVM switches. Fujitsu Siemens warranties do not apply to damage
resulting from user-supplied cable.
Avoiding potentially fatal shock hazard and possible damage
to equipment
• Do not use a 2-wire extension cord in any of the Fujitsu Siemens
product congurations.
• Test AC outlets at the computer and monitor for proper polarity and
grounding.
• Use only with grounded outlets at both the computer and monitor.
When using an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), power the
computer, the monitor and the appliance off the supply.
The AC inlet is the main disconnect.
Rack mount safety considerations
• Elevated Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed rack assembly, the operation temperature of the rack environment may
be greater than room ambient. Use care not to exceed the rated
maximum ambient temperature of the unit.
• Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be
such that the amount of airow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should
be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the
connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings for maximum
current.
• Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack mounted equipment
should be maintained. Pay particular attention to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for
example, use of power strips).

3.1 Preinstallation
The KVM s2-1611 system requires that the KVM s2-Client software be installed
prior to use. The KVM s2-Client software allows you to view and control a server
attached to the appliance system, congure and maintain the system and prevent
unauthorized access to the appliance via IP connection.
The analog port does not require the Client software for operation. The analog port
uses the On-Screen Conguration and Activity Reporting interface (OSCAR®).
The KVM s2-1611 system uses Ethernet networking infrastructure and TCP/IP
protocol to transmit keyboard, video and mouse information between operators
and connected computers. Although 10BaseT Ethernet may be used, a dedicated,
switched 100BaseT network provides improved performance.
3.1.1 Getting started
Before installing your KVM s2-1611 appliance, refer to the following list to ensure
you have all items that shipped with the appliance as well as other items necessary for proper installation.

• KVM series2-Client software Installer/User Guide
• KVM series2-1611 Quick Installation Guide
3.1.1.2 Additional items needed
• One KVM s2-Adapter per attached server or switch
3.1.2 Setting up your network
The KVM s2-1611 system uses IP addresses to uniquely identify the appliances
and the computers running Client software. The KVM s2-1611 appliance supports
both BootP (a subset of DHCP) and static IP addressing.
Fujitsu Siemens recommends that IP addresses be reserved for each unit and that
they remain static while the appliances are connected to the network.

3.1.3 Rack mounting your appliance
Your KVM s2-1611 appliance ships with rack mounting brackets for easy integration into your rack. Before installing the appliance and other components in the
rack cabinet (if not already installed), stabilize the rack in a permanent location.
Install your equipment starting at the bottom of the rack cabinet, then work to the
top. Avoid uneven loading or overloading of rack cabinets.
3.1.3.1 Installing the rack mount brackets
Line up the holes in the “long side” of the kit’s side brackets with the screw
holes in the switch.
With a Phillips screwdriver, fasten the mounting brackets to the switch using
two 8/32” x 1/2” pan head screws on each side.
Attach the four cage nuts or clip nuts to the rack mounting ange of the rack
cabinet so that the nut is positioned on the inside of the rack.
Mount the switch assembly to the rack cabinet by matching the holes in the
“short side” of each bracket to an appropriate set of matching holes on your
rack cabinet. Next, insert the combination hex head screws through the slots
in the bracket and the holes in the mounting rail, then into the cage nuts or clip
nuts.
