Chapter 1. Introduction
Chapter 1
Introduction
Overview
For smooth operation and added convenience, ATEN’s KA7171 /
KA7171AK USB-PS/2 KVM Adapter Module is designed to provide a
full console connection locally in a KVM over IP Switch or Matrix KVM
installation.
The KA7171 / KA7171AK allows a PS/2 or USB server to be connected
to the switch via Cat 5e/6 cable and provides an extra console via USB
keyboard, USB mouse, and monitor to use for extended local
operations.
In addition, the Privileged Console Control function prevents remote
users from operating the device when a local administrator requires full
control of the server - reducing conflicts and unwanted operations.
KA7171AK is an upgraded version of KA7171 that is designed to work
with our KVM over IP Access Control Box. The 2XRT-0015G KVM over
IP Access Control Box allows users to enable or disable remote over
IP control privilege by simply pressing a control button.
It’s fast and easy to set up the 2XRT-0015G. Simply plug the 2XRT0015G’s cables to the KA7171AK. There is no need to install software
or configure devices - just plug and play.
In addition, the cable length of the 2XRT-0015G reaches 5 meters,
enabling connection to the transmitter over longer distances for more
flexible installation.
