1. Product Overview
1.1 Features and Benefits
Fujitsu s3-0801/1601 KVMswitches provide control of data center servers. The
switches provide users with a significant reduction of cable volume.
TheFujitsu s3-0801/1601 switch family has several options depending on the
model:
• a rack mountable keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) switch, configurable for
analog (local) connectivity
• support for VGA, SVGA, SGA and SXGA video
• video resolutions up to 1600 x 1200
• cascading expansion; each switch supports up to 16 directly attached
servers and can conveniently scale to support more
Reduce cable bulk
With server densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains a major concern
for network administrators. The s3-0801/1601 switches significantly reduce KVM
cable volume in the rack by utilizing the innovative IQ module and single,
industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling or the SMBAdapter
USB-VGAcabling option. This allows a higher server density while providing
greater airflow and cooling capacity.
The IQ and SMB Adapter modules are powered directly from the target device
and provide Keep Alive functionality when the switch is not turned on. The serial
IQ module is a DCE device that provides the primary interface between a serial
device and a s3-0801/1601 switch. It provides VT100 terminal emulation, break
suppression and port history in a compact, convenient module.

2. Installation
2.1 s3-0801/1601 Switch Connectivity
The s3-0801/1601 switching system transmits keyboard, video and mouse (KVM)
information between an operator and target devices attached to the switch.
2.2 Installation Overview
The general procedure for setting up and installing a switch is as follows:
• Unpack the switch and verify that all components are present and in good
condition.
• Make all hardware connections between the power source, switch and target
devices
• Turn on the power and verify that all connections are working.
• Configure the switch’s IP address using the On-Screen Display (OSD) or On-
board Web Interface (OBWI).
