Desktop User Stations

High-quality video and real-time desktop access

Avocent AMX® analog KVM switching solutions simplify access, increase your control and
deliver optimal real-time video to your desktop. The user station connects to your
multiplatform KVM peripherals (PS/2 or USB) and sends the KVM signals over an
industry-standard UTP cable to Avocent AMX5000, AMX5010, AMX5020 and AMX5030 analog
matrix switches. This UTP connectivity and analog switching technology provides multiuser
access and control to any server in your KVM matrix system.

AMX user stations automatically compensate for varying UTP cable types and lengths such as
CAT 5, CAT 5e and CAT 6, including GigaFlex. The AMX5121 and AMX5130 user stations’
design adjusts for skew between RGB signals each time a switch is made to a server. The
AMX5130 user station provides for serial switching up to 38.4 Kbps and lets you switch stereo
speakers and a microphone.

Avocent user stations work with the patented OSCAR® graphical user interface (GUI) for point
and click system configuration and server selection. This full-system management tool
supports switching in share, private and scan modes.

Benefits

high-quality video; switching of serial
devices (this feature is supported on
AMX5130 user station only)

• Back-rack computers and provide

complete access from a single interface

• Simple installation and advanced

administrative tools

• Smart cable adaptors for server naming

and reconfiguration

• Uses existing UTP cable infrastructure:

CAT 5, CAT 5e and CAT 6, including
GigaFlex

• Supports diverse applications including

demo labs, designer environments, test
labs and data centers

• Serial force mode enables serial devices

to force any user station to connect to a
specific target

• Dual matrix support for AMX switch

redundancy

Dual matrix configuration supports AMX switch
redundancy for critical applications.
