Description
APC Integrated Rack LCD/KVM USB Cable — 6ft / 1.8m (AP5821)
Full APC Specification: APC Integrated Rack LCD/KVM USB Cable - 6ft (1.8m)
The AP5821 is the 6-foot (1.8m) variant of APC's integrated KVM USB cable. Each cable connects one server to an APC KVM console (AP5808 8-port or AP5816 16-port) via a single cable that carries both USB keyboard/mouse and VGA video signals.
Cable Length Selection
The 6ft length is the shortest in APC's KVM cable lineup. It is sized for servers in the same rack as the KVM console — typically the console at the top of the rack with servers below within 6 feet of cable run. For servers in adjacent racks or longer cable runs, the 10ft (AP5822) or 17ft (AP5823) variants are appropriate.
Key Features
- 6ft (1.8m) Cable Length: Sized for same-rack server-to-console connections.
- Integrated Video + USB: Single cable carries 15-pin VGA video and USB 2.0 keyboard/mouse.
- USB 2.0 Type A Male: Standard USB connector for keyboard/mouse signaling.
- SUB-D 15HD Male VGA: Standard 15-pin high-density VGA connector for video.
- APC KVM Switch Compatibility: Designed for AP5808 and AP5816 KVM consoles.

Questyme: Bundle KVM Cables with the Console Order
For new KVM console deployments, Questyme can bundle the right cable mix (AP5821 6ft, AP5822 10ft, AP5823 17ft) based on actual server-to-console distances. Avoids the typical issue of ordering all 6ft cables and discovering some servers are too far for that length. Contact our team.
