The Zero-U VGA KVM Switch System allows you to control up to 64 computers without consuming rack space. The switch frees up valuable space by eliminating large KVM switchboxes and bulky hard-to-manage coax cables. The PRIMUX system consists of two components: the User Station that connects to a keyboard, monitor and mouse, and Host Adapter that connects to a server. Up to 64 Host Adapters can be daisy-chained together providing user access to up to 64 servers. The User Stations and Host Adapters can be located as far as 1,000 feet from each other via CAT5/5e/6 UTP cable.
A single, inexpensive CAT5/5e/6 UTP cable replaces bulky KVM cables.
Interconnect multiple servers at different locations throughout a building. Servers can be the same or different platforms(PS/2, SUN, USB or serial).
Ideal for hazardous/unsecured environments. User station can be located up to 1,000 feet (305 meters) from servers.
Provides a simple daisy-chained wiring configuration.
Easy to install and use with plug-and-play functionality.
Hot-swap components with no disruption of server operation.
Supports crisp and clear resolutions to 1920x1440.
Dedicated microprocessors prevent computers from locking up, ensuring reliable control.
Keep-alive keyboard/mouse emulation for flawless operation.
Supports international keyboard layouts.
OSD provides fine tuning for optimal video quality.
Color-coded LEDs on both the local and remote units indicate power status and verify communication between the units.
Automatically adjusts the video quality to compensate for varying lengths of CAT5/5e/6 cable.
Configuration is saved and restored even if unit loses power.
