Zero-U IP KVM Transmitter
The Vertiv HMX5160T-DVID is a zero-U IP KVM transmitter designed for rack environments. It extends a single computer over a standard network using a single RJ-45 connection. The unit supports a maximum video resolution of 1920 x 1200 at 60Hz via its DVI-D port. It is built for administrators who manage servers remotely from a workstation.
DVI-D Video and Dual USB Connectivity
The bundle provides one DVI-D video interface and two USB ports for keyboard and mouse signals. These connections allow the transmitter to carry high-resolution video and HID data over IP without additional converters. The 5 V DC input powers the unit directly, eliminating the need for a separate power supply in compatible racks. Plug-and-play operation simplifies deployment in existing infrastructure.
1920 x 1200 Resolution Headroom
The transmitter comfortably handles WUXGA resolution at 60Hz for single-display server management. It runs out of headroom beyond 1920 x 1200, so multi-monitor setups or 2560 x 1600 requirements are not supported by this model. The zero-U form factor fits dense racks where space is limited. Buyers needing higher resolutions or multiple video outputs should consider other models in the series.

Questions about this item
Does the HMX5160T-DVID need any firmware updates or field-replaceable parts during its service life?
The unit is a sealed zero-U transmitter with no user-serviceable components; firmware updates are handled centrally through the Avocent HMX Advanced Manager when the appliance is connected to the management network.
What video bandwidth ceiling appears first when the transmitter streams 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz continuously?
The DVI-D link and the 5 V DC power budget limit the stream to a single 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz channel; no higher resolution or refresh rate is supported on this model.
How much fan noise or heat does the HMX5160T-DVID produce when left on all day?
The zero-U dongle has no internal fan and draws only 5 V DC, so it adds negligible heat and runs silently in a rack environment.
