Overview
The Eaton B055-001-UDV NetDirector DVI USB Server Interface Unit is engineered to streamline connectivity between a server with DVI and USB ports and compatible Eaton Tripp Lite B064-IPG Series KVM switches.

This extended reach simplifies rack management in dynamic data center and server room environments. Designed to enhance operational efficiency, the unit provides critical functionalities such as Virtual Media access and Common Access Card (CAC) support. Virtual Media allows IT professionals to transfer ISO images and other files for software installations or system diagnostics remotely, reducing the need for physical presence at the server. CAC support ensures secure, authorized access, crucial for environments requiring stringent security protocols. The B055-001-UDV eliminates the need for bulky KVM cable bundles, significantly freeing up valuable space within server cabinets and improving airflow for better thermal management. Its plug-and-play design requires no software installation or external power supply, facilitating rapid deployment and integration into existing infrastructures. This TAA-compliant unit is ideal for secure government and enterprise applications where efficient, extended KVM access is paramount.
