2xxx | Product Overviewxxx• dual stack IPv4 (DHCP) and IPv6 (DHCPv6 and stateless auto-configuration) for simultaneous access• accessibility to target devices across 10/100/1000BaseT LAN ports.• a MODEM port that supports V.34, V.90 or V.92-compatible modems thatmay be used to access the switch when an Ethernet connection is notavailable• FIPS supportReduce Cable BulkWith server densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains a major concernfor network administrators. The RCS significantly reduces KVM cable volume inthe rack by utilizing the innovative Server Interface Pod (SIP) modules andsingle, industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling. This allows ahigher server density while providing greater airflow and cooling capacity.KVM Switching CapabilitiesThe RCS supports SIPs that are powered directly from the target device andprovide Keep Alive functionality when the switch is not powered. The SIPs withCAT 5 design dramatically reduce cable clutter while providing optimalresolution and video settings. The built-in memory of the SIPs simplifiesconfiguration by assigning and retaining unique device names and Electronic ID(EID) numbers for each attached device.PS/2 and USB SIPs are available allowing direct KVM connectivity to devices.The USB2+CAC SIP is also available. The RCS is offered with 8, 16, or 32Analog Rack Interface (ARI) ports for connecting SIPs. Utilizing the SIP, youcan attach additional switches to expand your RCS system. This flexibilityallows you to add capacity as your data center grows.Multiplatform SupportThe Dell SIPs are available for use with the RCS to support PS/2, USB, USB2,and USB2+CAC device environments. Using the OBWI in conjunction withthese modules allows you to switch easily across platforms.
