Key points to note on these 0X1X8 HPE G3 KVM Console Switches:-
HP KVM Analog Console Switches allow you to view and manage up to 256 rack-mounted servers across your data center through a single user interface. These switches utilize a local On-Screen Display (OSD) interface, accessible via a rack console like the HP LCD8500. The OSD provides intuitive menus to easily access each attached server or serial-managed device.
Key Features:-
- USB Remote Access Key: G3 models support an optional USB Remote Access Key that enables KVM-over-IP functionality, providing remote access and management through the On-Board Web Interface (OBWI).
- Power Discovery and Location Discovery: New G3 models support HP Power Discovery Services and Location Discovery Services when connected to the appropriate power distribution unit and KVM rack console.
- Rackmount Options: HP KVM Analog Console Switches are available in 8 and 16-port versions. They can be mounted in a standard 1U (1.75in) rack space or in a "zero U" profile by mounting in the side rails of the rack.
-
Manageability:-
- Security: To protect against unauthorized access, HPE Advanced Analog KVM switches offer a password option for enhanced security.
- HPE Location Discovery Services (LDS) & Power Discovery Services (PDS): Support is available when connected to an HPE Intelligent Power Distribution Unit (iPDU) and the HPE LCD8500 1U Rackmount Console Kit (HPE Location Discovery Services LCD8500 Kit required).
- On-Board Web Interface (OBWI): This built-in web server provides remote management of the KVM for easier control and monitoring.
-
Compatibility and Flexibility:-
- HPE Servers & IT Equipment: While the KVM switch can be used with non-HPE IT equipment, it is designed to work optimally with HPE servers, storage, and networking products. When used with HPE equipment, it enables access to various server and IP-based management tools.
- Extended Warranty Coverage: HPE Pointnext operational services purchased for servers extend to rack and power infrastructure products such as racks, power distribution units, uninterruptible power systems (UPS), and KVM console switches. This eliminates the need for additional budgets on extended warranties for your infrastructure.
