Targeted KVM link for Avocent IQ modules

The Vertiv Avocent MPUIQ-VMCHS is a dedicated KVM cable built to connect a server or blade to an Avocent IQ module. Its short 1.17 ft length suits dense rack environments where the module sits directly beside the target port. The black sheath matches standard data-centre colour coding.

Signal integrity over the full rated length

Because the cable is only 1.17 ft long, attenuation and skew stay well within the IQ module’s specification without active equalisation. USB 2.0 high-speed and video channels maintain their eye diagrams across the entire run, so keyboard, mouse and display remain responsive during extended management sessions.

Passive construction keeps thermals

No active electronics or power draw means the cable adds no heat and generates no acoustic noise inside the rack. Power is sourced entirely from the IQ module, so the link imposes no additional load on the server or the PDU.

Questions about this item

Does the 1.17 ft cable add noticeable heat or draw extra power when the KVM runs continuously?

The cable is a passive 1.17 ft link; it generates no measurable heat and draws no power of its own during all-day operation.

What must my server already provide for the MPUIQ-VMCHS to function?

The server needs a compatible Avocent IQ module port and a standard USB 2.0 high-speed connection for the cable to work.

Will this 1.17 ft cable work with an older Avocent KVM switch I still use?

Yes, provided the older switch accepts the Avocent IQ module interface; the short cable simply bridges that connection.
