KVM over IP Switches
KN2124VA / KN2140VA / KN4124VA / KN4140VA
ATEN’s 4th generation of KVM over IP switches exceed expectations. The KN2124VA /
KN2140VA / KN4124VA / KN4140VA feature superior video quality with HD resolutions
up to 1920 x 1200, FIPS 140-2 with level 1 security standards and virtual media
transmissions at twice the normal speed.
The KN Series provides a local console and remote over IP access for users to monitor and
access their entire data center over a network.
KN2124VA
• 24 Ports
• 1 Local and 2 Remote User
Access
• Audio, Virtual Media, Dual
Power, Fan Speed Control
Exclusive KN Series Features:
• High-grade security – supports FIPS 140-2 level 1 security standards
• 2x faster virtual media transmission speeds
• Advanced FPGA graphics processor with HD resolutions up to 1920 x 1200
With dual on-board NICs and dual power supplies, the KN Series is built for reliability, to
ensure 24/7 availability of remote access to all servers.
The KN Series can be integrated into ATEN's CC2000 Management Software. CC2000
puts administrators in complete control of remote data centers and branch offices no
matter where they are in the world – allowing them to remotely monitor and control
all devices on a network, including blade server chassis, individual blades and virtual
machines.
In addition, the KN series is compatible with ATEN’s KVM over IP Console Station, the
KA82 series. The KA82 series is a hardware-based standalone console solution that can
centrally manage multiple KN devices. It is especially suitable for environments where a
PC is not allowed. The KVM over IP Console Station features a 0U space-saving compact
design and low power consumption for 24/7 operations.
Additional exclusive features of ATEN KVM over IP switches include: a Message Board,
Panel Array Mode™, Mouse DynaSync™ and the Adapter ID function.
ATEN KVM over IP switches save you time and money by allowing administrators to
manage their data centers from practically anywhere – minimizing travel and Mean Time
To Repair (MTTR) costs and ensuring the highest availability for data center services.
