2.1 MergePoint Unity Switch for Dell Connectivity
The MergePoint Unity switching system for Dell transmits KVM and serial information between operators
and target devices attached to the switch over a network using either an Ethernet or modem connection.
The switch uses TCP/IP for communication over Ethernet. Although 10BaseT Ethernet may be used,
Vertiv™ recommends a dedicated, switched 100BaseT or 1000BaseT network for switches that support it.
The switch uses the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) for communication over a V.34, V.90 or V.92 modem.
You can perform KVM and serial switching tasks by using the OBWI or the DSView software. For more
information on the DSView software, visit http://www.VertivCo.com or see the DSView Installer/User Guide.
The following figure illustrates a basic configuration for the switch.
