Cat 5 High-Density KVM Over the NET™
The KH1508Ai/KH1516Ai Cat 5 High-Density KVM Over the NET™ switches offer 8 and 16 computer port
congurations in a 1U-high housing for convenient rack mounting. They allow local and remote operators to
monitor and access the entire enterprise data center over the Internet using a web-based browser.
The KH1508Ai/KH1516Ai features RJ-45 connectors and Cat 5e/6 cable to link to the computers and supports
multiplatform. This ensures that high quality signals can travel over long distance – up to 50m* without the
need for KVM extenders. Utilizing KVM Adapter Cables for the nal linkup, the KH1508Ai/KH1516Ai permits
any combination of PCs, Macs, Sun computers, and serial devices to coexist on the installation.
In addition to TCP/IP connectivity, the KH1508Ai/ KH1516Ai provides console ports for a locally attached USB
or PS/2 console and a Laptop USB console (LUC) – allowing access and control from the data center as well
as over the Net.
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 8/16 servers at once. Other features that
contribute to the switches’ powerful capabilities include: Mouse DynaSync™, and Adapter ID.
With 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.
