Rackmount Console KVM Drawer with 17" LCD
DKM-SX17M Flip-up LCD Monitor, Pull-out Keyboard Tray with Optical Mouse
- Features and Benefits
- Rack-optimized design
- The DKM m-series is rack-optimized. Using a slide-out rackmount drawer and flip-up LCD design, the unit takes up only one or two rack-unit of space, even with LCD screens up to 20" in size. The entire unit is mounted on ball-bearing slide rails so it slides effortlessly in and out of your equipment rack.
- Integrated design—LCD, keyboard, mouse, speakers
The DKM m-series combines several frequently used
peripheral devices in a low profile pull-out rackmount drawer —flat
panel monitor, keyboard and an optical mouse. Now you can navigate
your screen with high precision, even if your work environment requires
that you wear gloves.
There is also a mouse pad and mouse storage integrated with the keyboard drawer. You'll also find built-in speakers and audio input on all DKM models that comes with a mouse.- Flexible rack mounting
- Ball-bearing slide rails with rack mounting front and rear brackets are mounted on the unit. The rear bracket can be extended to 35.9 inches.
- Detachable power supply
Using an external and detachable AC adapter for the
power supply, the unit is even easier to maintain. The AC adapter
offers input fused protection, over-current and short-circuit output
protection. It is UL, CE, FCC certified and rated for at least 100,000
hours of operation.
- Edgelight backlight LCD panel
- Backlight systems for LCDs can be divided roughly into two types:
1. directly-under (reflective) systems, and
2. sidelight/edge light (light-guiding plate) types.
In the directly-under system a fluorescent lamp is positioned in a cage consisting of a reflective plate and diffusive plate, so that light from the lamp is reflected and scattered. Fluorescent lamp shapes in use include straight tubes, U-shaped and W-shaped lamps. A light curtain and a diffuser are mounted over the lamps to reduce unevenness in brightness. Compared with other methods, the directly under system offers higher brightness.
Sidelight/edge light uses a straight CCFL lamp along one side of the LCD, or two lamps on opposite sides of the LCD, or L-shaped lamps along the opposite corners of the LCD. Edge light units use a reflector and light-guiding plate to direct light from the fluorescent lamp to the screen to evenly disperse light over the LCD. LCD panels using this backlighting technique are usually thinner and have good average brightness. In addition, greater ease in changing the lamp, and lower power consumption are also important features.
