OVERVIEW
The ServSelect
™
III makes it easy for 2 users to access
and switch between up to 8 or 16 servers from a USB or PS/2
®
console. Just cascade multiple ServSelect III units to add even
more servers. In a cascaded setup, 2 users can access up to 128
servers (with multiple 8-port models) or as many as 256 servers
(with a string of 16-port switches).

(with a string of 16-port switches).
The ServSelect III uses a Server Access Module (SAM) or
low-cost, nonflashable ServSelect III Cable to connect to the
server or other target device. The SAMs and cables provide
keyboard, video, and mouse connectivity, and enable you to
connect the switch to servers with PS/2 style or USB
connectors, or to devices with serial connectors.

connect the switch to servers with PS/2 style or USB
connectors, or to devices with serial connectors.
The distance between the ServSelect III and the servers
determines whether you use the ServSelect III Cable or the
SAMs. To connect to servers less than 15 feet (4.6 m) away,
order the cables. These thin integrated cables save you
equipment space at both the switch and the server. But if your
servers or devices are more than 15 feet (4.6 m) away, you’ll
need the SAMs.

Each ServSelect III Cable or ServSelect SAM features built-in
memory to simplify configuration by assigning and retaining
unique server names and electronic IDs (EIDs) for each
attached server. It‘s powered from the server and stays
powered even if the ServSelect III is powered off.

If you use the SAMs for server connections, you’ll also need
CAT5 cable to link them to your ServSelect III. All ServSelect
SAMs are flash upgradable to keep your system up to date.

We even carry an adapter that enables you to connect the

GUI capabilities.
ServSelect III’s graphical user interface (GUI) is one of the
simplest ever to use —and one of the most versatile, too.
Start with the way you configure your system and how
you identify servers. ServSelect III’s menus enable you to
identify servers by unique name, ID number, or port number.
identify servers by unique name, ID number, or port number.
You select individual servers using these operational
modes: broadcast, scan, and switch.
In broadcast mode, you can simultaneously control more
than one server in a system to send identical input to all
selected servers. You can even broadcast keystrokes and/or
mouse movements independently.

In scan mode, automatically scan from server port to
server port. In this way, you can scan up to 16 servers. Add
servers to the scan list, remove them, or start the scan mode
via the software interface.

In switch mode, you can connect to servers using
preemptive or cooperative methods. Select preemptive mode
to allow any user to select any server at any time. A request
from another user disconnects the current user without
warning. Cooperative mode maintains the current user
connection. If another user requests a connection, the
current user won’t be disconnected.
