Introduction
Overview
The KVM over IP Switch (CN9000/CN9600/CN9950) is a cost-efficient overIP device that allows remote access and control to the video, audio, and virtual media of a PC or workstation. It can also provide over-IP capability for compatible ATEN KVM switches and/or LCD consoles, such as the CS1768 and/or CL3800.
The CN9000, CN9600, and CN9950 respectively supports one VGA, one DVI, and one 4K DisplayPort video transmission, and is equipped with a FPGA graphics processor that offers better image and video quality to enhance user experience, while also offering RS-232 DTE/DCE standards of serial control for its CPU COM and local console COM ports.
For user-friendly operation, an USB Mini-B port on the front panel is designed as a laptop USB console (LUC) port. By simply connecting a laptop to the LUC port, users can access any computer connected to the switch for easy on-site management. That means no additional monitor, keyboard and mouse is required for routine, local maintenance. Additionally, the CN9000/CN9600/ CN9950’s virtual media function allows users to perform diagnostic testing, file transfers, or apply OS/application updates and patches from a remote console.
To ensure seamless connectivity, the CN9000/CN9600/CN9950 is equipped with dual LAN and dual power functionality to keep operation in the server room smooth and efficient. The switch also supports microphone and speakers on the local and remote console.
For ease of remote management, the CN9000/CN9600/CN9950 supports webfriendly KVM-over-IP access with its Web Client Viewer functionality, which is compatible with major web browsers and runs directly off the browser without Java or browser plug-in installations. Like its Java or Windows plugin counterparts, it allows users to remotely access the server / PC connected to the device, but benefiting from a more direct and simple access option for management and operation.
