❓ Frequently Asked Questions
❓ Is this Dell 1081AD KVM compatible with my PowerEdge servers?
The Dell KVM 1081AD is designed to work natively with Dell PowerEdge servers via RJ-45 SIP (Server Interface Pods) cables. It is compatible with most PowerEdge generations using analog KVM connections. For newer servers requiring remote or IP KVM access, we recommend checking compatibility with your model before purchase.
❓ How many servers can be managed simultaneously with this KVM switch?
The 8-port RJ-45 KVM switch allows you to connect and manage up to 8 servers from a single workstation (keyboard, VGA monitor, mouse). This capacity can be expanded by cascading multiple Dell KVM units within your datacenter infrastructure.
❓ What cables do I need to connect my servers to this KVM?
To connect your servers to the Dell KVM switch 1081AD, you will need Dell-specific SIP (Server Interface Pod) cables matching your servers’ connection types (PS/2, USB, etc.). These KVM cables are sold separately and are not included in this lot. The DP/N 036JDV corresponds to the main unit of the switch.
❓ Does this KVM switch support remote access (KVM over IP)?
The Dell 1081AD is an analog KVM switch. It features a Fast Ethernet network port and an RS-232 serial port which, with the addition of an optional Dell Remote Access Key module, enable limited remote access. For full KVM over IP access, the Dell 2161DS model or DRAC/iDRAC solutions would be more suitable.
❓ Has the unit been tested before shipping? What warranty is offered?
Yes, this used Dell PowerEdge KVM has been tested and verified to be in working condition before sale. It comes with a 30-day hardware warranty. In case of a confirmed defect upon receipt, we accept returns and refunds. A professional invoice with 0% VAT is included in every package.
❓ What is the difference between the Dell KVM 1081AD and the 2161AD?
The Dell KVM 1081AD (DP/N 036JDV) offers 8 server ports, while the 2161AD model provides 16 for larger infrastructures. Both are 1U rack-mountable analog KVM switches from the Dell PowerEdge range, sharing a similar architecture and the same SIP cables.
