ServView II
The rugged ServView™II is the most efficient way to
control server rooms and multiple computers. It’s a rack-
mountable KVM console drawer that’s available with an
optional built-in ServSwitch™.
The console drawer contains a 15" 1024 x 768 LCD monitor,
a full-size keyboard, and a trackball— and it occupies only 1U
of rack space! To maintain an attractive server room, the
rugged ServView II is concealed behind its front panel when
it’s not in use.
ServView II is available in a basic model or with a built-in
ServSwitch—and the ServSwitch fits into the same 1U of rack
space as the ServView II. Choose the ServSwitch you need:
• The ServSwitch (KV3108SA-R5) for control of eight
PC-only computers.
• The Matrix ServSwitch (SW742A-R3) to command up to
eight PC-only computers from two workstations.
• The ServSwitch Ultra™(KV5008SA-R2) for multiplatform use
with eight PC, Macintosh®, and Sun®computers.
• The Multiplatform Matrix ServSwitch (SW762A-R4) to control
up to eight PC and Sun computers from two workstations.
ServView II Ultra
The ServView II Ultra™gives you the ultimate in working
comfort. This rackmount workstation takes only 1U of space,
and you can mount it in your full-size cabinet or four-post
rack. The easy-glide drawer is simple to install and use. Just
slide it out of the rack and flip up the flat-screen monitor.
Make quick adjustments with the front-panel controls.
Or use the on-screen display to easily adjust color, brightness,
contrast, etc. Then, when you’re done working, just slide the
drawer right back into the rack, leaving your server room
looking neat and presentable.
You can view the display without feeling like you’re
looking into a fishbowl. The screen is a 17" multisync TFT/LCD
monitor that supports resolutions of 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz.
The ServView II Ultra is available in a base model or in
models that include a built-in ServSwitch. The ServSwitch fits
into the same 1U of rack space as the ServView II Ultra. You
can choose from the following ServSwitch units:
• The original ServSwitch (KV3108SA-R5) controls up to eight
PC-only CPUs from a single workstation.
• The Matrix ServSwitch (SW742A-R3) controls up to eight
PC-only CPUs from two workstations.
• The ServSwitch Ultra (KV5008SA-R2) controls eight PC,
Macintosh, and Sun computers from one workstation.
• The Multiplatform Matrix ServSwitch (SW762A-R4) controls

Recognize any of these situations?
• You wait more than 30 minutes to get through
to a vendor’s tech support.
• The so-called “tech” can’t help you or gives you
the wrong answer.
• You don’t have a purchase order number and the
tech refuses to help you.
• It’s 9 p. m. and you need help, but your vendor’s
tech support line is closed.
According to a survey by Data Communications
magazine, 90% of network managers surveyed say
that getting the technical support they need is extremely
important when choosing a vendor. But even though
network managers pay anywhere from 10 to 20% of their
overall purchase price for a basic service and support
contract, the technical support and service they receive
falls far short of their expectations—and certainly isn’t
worth what they paid.
At Black Box, we guarantee the best value and the
best support. You can even consult our Technical Support
Experts before you buy if you need help selecting just
the right component for your application.
Don’t waste time and money—call Black Box today.
