Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
Control your rack- or cabinet-mounted PS/2 server with the compact, easy-to-use ServTray. It consists of a keyboard (Japanese
version), mouse, LCD panel, and KVM module housed in an industry-standard 19", 1U-height console drawer (see Figure 2-1).
Two models are available: the ServTray with a 15" LCD panel (KVT201A-JP-R3) and the ServTray with a 17" LCD panel
(KVT202A-JP-R3). Both models feature a full 105-key, low-profile, sturdy keyboard and touch pad with an ergonomically designed
hand rest. The KVT201A-JP-R3 has a maximum resolution of 1024 x 768, and the KVT202A-JP-R3 has a maximum resolution of
1280 x 1024.
Install the ServTray in racks or cabinets that are 23.7"D to 45.3"D (60.2 to 115.1 cm). Before installing the ServTray, you’ll need a
Universal Rear Bracket Extension Kit (described in Section 2.3).
A single-port KVM module is included with the ServTray. To control more than one PS/2 server, connect the ServTray to a
ServSwitch™.
The KVM module comes with a universal Centronics 36-pin connector; use it to connect the module to the console drawer. On
the opposite side of the KVM module are two 6-pin mini DIN connectors and one HD15 connector to connect directly to a PS/2
computer or to a ServSwitch console ports. Finally, the module has a barrel connector for power. The 0.12" x 0.24" screws listed
in Section 2.2 secure the Universal Rear Bracket Extension Kit to the KVM module. The 0.19" x 0.43" screws are used in place of
10-32 or 12-24 screws if required by your rack.
