Detailed Specifications
Eaton B055-001-C KVM Server Interface Unit
Overview :
The Eaton Tripp Lite series B055-001-C is a specialized NetDirector USB-C Server Interface Unit (SIU) engineered for enterprise-grade remote access infrastructure. Network systems administrators, data center managers, and IT engineering technicians integrate this hardware adapter to connect advanced servers directly to central management matrices. It solves the critical deployment challenge of spatial congestion and restricted airflow inside dense equipment racks by replacing bulky, traditional multi-ended KVM cable harnesses with sleek, modular structured cabling lines.
Equipped with high-fidelity signal conversion chipsets, this compact server interface unit translates video, keyboard, mouse, and peripheral data paths seamlessly into standard network packages. Technical processing capabilities focus on delivering full support for high-definition video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz, including crisp 1080p rendering. The hardware architecture features built-in Virtual Media passthrough channels, enabling administrators to execute remote software patching, os installation, and diagnostics as if physically present at the host terminal.
Compatibility is strictly confined to host servers, hardware appliances, or workstations featuring an active USB-C female port, operating in conjunction with an Eaton Tripp Lite B064-Series Cat5 KVM matrix switch.The system relies on standard UTP Cat5e or Cat6 structured cables to complete the physical path between the adapter and the central switch across a maximum distance threshold of 164 feet. Do not deploy this specific server interface unit with legacy B020, B022, or NetCommander KVM series switches, as the pin out protocols are structurally incompatible and will fail to establish communications.
Key Features :
Dedicated USB-C interface connects modern slim servers directly to KVM switches.
Virtual Media access allows convenient remote software installation and file transfers.
High-fidelity structural circuitry supports crisp video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200.
Pure bus-powered hardware configuration completely removes external power supply needs.
TAA-compliant construction fulfills all strict government GSA procurement regulations.
