These intelligent KVM-IAs with Cat 5 design dramatically reduce cable clutter while
providing optimal digital display resolution and video settings. The built-in memory of the
KVM-IA simplifies configuration by assigning and retaining unique target device
identification codes for each attached target device. This integrated intelligence
enhances security and prevents unauthorized access to a target device through cable
manipulation. The KVM-IA is powered directly from the target device and provides Keep
Alive functionality when the KVM s3-1621 appliance is not turned on.
The KVM-IAs enable direct KVM connectivity to target devices that are attached to the
KVM s3-1621 appliance. Each KVM s3-1621 appliance has 16 ARI ports for connecting
KVM-IAs.
The KVM-IAs that work with the appliances support target devices with PS/2 and USB
ports as well as SUN 8-pin ports for keyboard and mouse. When using the OSCAR
interface in conjunction with KVM-IAs, you can easily switch between platforms.

Virtual Media

The KVM s3-1621 appliance supports virtual media when connected to a KVM-IA. You
can use virtual media support to connect USB media devices to a KVM s3-1621
appliance and make those devices available to any connected appliances.
Use virtual media to move data between a target device and USB media devices that
are connected to the KVM s3-1621 appliance. You can install, upgrade, or recover the
operating system; update the BIOS code; or start the target device from a USB drive
through the virtual media capabilities of the KVM s3-1621 appliance.
Virtual media can be connected directly to the KVM s3-1621 appliance using one of four
USB ports on these appliances. In addition, virtual media can be connected to any
remote workstation that is running the KVM s3 Client and is connected to the appliance
using an Ethernet connection. To open a virtual media session with a target device, the
target device must first be connected to the appliance using a KVM s3-Adapter USB2-
VGA cable. For more information about the on-board web interface, refer to the Virtual
Media Guide .

OSCAR graphical user interface

The KVM s3-1621 appliance uses the OSCAR
graphical user interface, which has menus to configure the switching system and to
select computers. You can list target devices by unique name, EID (Electronic ID), or
port number.
