APC Integrated Rack LCD/KVM USB Cable, 6ft (1.8m)

The APC AP5821 is a six foot cable that combines USB keyboard and mouse signals with VGA video into one tidy link between a server and an APC Rack LCD console or KVM switch. By replacing three separate cords with a single run, it helps keep crowded racks organized and shortens installation time.

Server administrators can rely on the cable for critical work such as firmware updates, hardware diagnostics, or recovery tasks because it allows direct BIOS level access even when the operating system is unavailable. This out of band capability is valuable in data centers, test labs, and small business server rooms where fast troubleshooting limits downtime.

The 1.8 meter length reaches comfortably across neighboring rack units without leaving excess slack. A USB A male plug carries the keyboard and mouse signals, while an HD 15 male plug handles analog video, making the cable compatible with standard server ports and APC KVM hardware.

A durable jacket protects the conductors yet remains flexible enough to route through cable management arms. The understated black finish blends into professional environments, and the molded design reduces the risk of loose connections during routine moves, adds, and changes.
