KVM Over the NET

™

FEATURES

p2 p3

The new generation of KVM Over the NET™ switches allow local and remote

operators to monitor and access the entire enterprise data center over the Internet

using a web-based browser. In addition, they offer out-of-band access – including

external modem support – for BIOS-level troubleshooting when the network is down.

These switches have been designed with unique and powerful features for that

enable administrators to manage their entire server room and data center devices

easily and conveniently from just about anywhere in the world.

A special Message Board feature – which like an internet chat program – lets any

number of remotely logged in users exchange information and communicate with

each other or to cooperatively manage the installation. A Panel Array Mode- allows

real-time monitoring of up to 40 servers at once. Other features that contribute to

the switches’ powerful capabilities include: Mouse DynaSync™, Adapter ID, and

Virtual Media support.

The Virtual Media function lets you map USB storage media (including DVD/CD

drives), and image files to a remote server – allowing administrators to conduct file

transfers, install applications and OS patches, and perform diagnostics remotely with

ease.

With their dual on-board NICs and dual power supplies, these switches have been

built for 24/7 reliability to ensure the highest rate of availability for your server room

and data center services .The switch design also features Green IT solutions that

include four temperature sensors to regulate up to six fans – making sure they are

always running at optimum speed – throttling down and speeding up depending on

the room temperature, reducing data center IT operation costs through a more

efficient use of energy

Now, using ALTUSEN KVM Over the NET™ switches, IT administrators can manage

their server rooms and data centers from practically anywhere – minimizing travel

costs and MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) – and ensuring the highest availability of data

center services possible.

A Network setting is provided that allows you to streamline data throughput by

adjusting the size of the data stream (bandwidth) to match network traffic

conditions. Video performance can be adjusted so that data throughput is

optimized for the available network bandwidth. With high speed LAN access,

the network setting can be adjusted so that a greater amount of video

information is sent, resulting in a higher quality video display. In a limited

bandwidth situation, the network setting can be adjusted so that net lag is

minimized.

Virtual Media support lets you map DVD/CD-ROMs and other storage

media to a remote server. This function allows you to conduct file

The switches have support for four temperature sensors that can control

up to six fans. The sensors regulate the fans to run at optimum speed,

using energy more efficiently and prolonging the life of both the fans and

the switch.
