Avocent DSR
®
 switches combine analog and digital technology to provide flexible, centralized 
control of data center servers and facilitate the OA&M (operations, activation and maintenance) of 
remote branch offices where trained operators may be unavailable. They  provide enterprise 
customers with a significant reduction of cable volume, secure remote access and flexible server 
management from anywhere at anytime. 
The DSR1024 switch is a keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) switch, configurable for analog 
(local) or digital (remote) connectivity. Video resolutions are supported up to 1280 x 1024 for 
remote users. Enhanced video quality of up to 1600 x 1200 is available to local users via the video 
port.
An SPC device is an 8- or 16-outlet device that you can use to control the power state of the 
attached target device through the embedded web server or the DSView 3 software .
Each DSR1024 switch model includes a MODEM port that supports V.34, V.90 or V.92-
compatible modems that may be used to access the switch when an Ethernet connection is not 
available. 
The IP-based DSR1024 switches give you flexible target device management control from 
anywhere in the world.
Reduce cable bulk
With server densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains a major concern for network 
administrators. The DSR1024 switch reduce KVM cable volume by utilizing the innovative 
DSRIQ module and a single, industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) CAT 5 cable. 
The DSRIQ module is powered directly from the target device and provides Keep Alive 
functionality when the DSR1024 switch is not powered.
The DSRIQ-SRL (serial) module is a DCE device that provides the primary interface between a 
serial device and a DSR1024 switch. It provides VT100 terminal emulation, break suppression and 
port history in a compact, convenient module.
