16-port KVM switch for server racks

The Avocent MPU2016-001 is a rack-mountable digital KVM switch that lets one operator control up to sixteen servers from a single console. It uses RJ-45 cabling for the computer links and provides one HD-15 video port plus two USB 2.0 ports for the local keyboard, mouse and monitor. The unit is built for data-centre administrators who need dense, centralised management.

Sustained operation on dual-voltage power

The switch runs continuously from either 110 V AC or 220 V AC mains without an external adapter, so it stays powered through long maintenance windows and overnight batch jobs. Its 1 U height and 1.72-inch depth fit standard racks while leaving airflow unobstructed. Eight-pin RJ-45 connections carry keyboard, mouse and video signals over structured cabling that resists signal loss across the full rack row.

1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz console limit

The local console is restricted to a maximum resolution of 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz, so administrators who require higher-definition displays for detailed graphical work will find the output insufficient. Buyers needing 1080p or 4K console video should evaluate alternative KVM platforms that support those modes.

Questions about this item

Does the MergePoint Unity MPU2016 run on 110 V AC without an external transformer?

Yes, the unit accepts 110 V AC and 220 V AC directly from the mains supply.

Which cables must I already have to connect the 16 servers to the RJ-45 ports?

You need 16 Avocent-compatible KVM dongles with 8-pin RJ-45 plugs for keyboard, mouse and video.

Will the 15-pin HD-15 console video port drive a legacy VGA monitor at 1280 x 1024 @ 75 Hz?

The HD-15 output supports 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz, matching the switch's maximum resolution.
