Avocent® Solutions Can Help You Answer Questions Like:
This switch provides IT administrators a
complete remote management solution to
access and control servers, networking
equipment and other devices found in data
centers and branch oices.
The Avocent MergePoint Unity switch
enhances the in-band management typically
done through the NIC of IT equipment by
providing secure and remote out-of-band
connections directly to the physical KVM,
USB and serial ports. This unified approach
enables IT administrators a faster method to
diagnose, reconfigure or restore equipment to
meet SLAs and minimize downtime.
Improve Remote Management
and Sta Eiciency
Reduce the time required to remotely
diagnose/reconfigure/repair/restore
servers as well as network devices and
other hardware with serial configuration
and/or management consoles.
Complement in-band tools to create a
more complete remote management
solution to access servers and network
equipment at remote locations.
Virtual media enables remote USB
connections to map CD-ROM and other
USB mass storage devices directly to
remote servers to transfer/copy files, load
updates or install new applications, etc.
Integrated serial device support allows secure
SSH connections to the physical serial ports
of devices attached to the MPUIQ-SRL
module. The Cisco® configuration settings
electronically pin out the module to enable a
fast and direct connection to Cisco
configuration ports, without the need for
any additional external wiring adapters or
special wiring.
Improve Physical Security
Remote smart card/CAC reader support is
provided for advanced security
requirements. Using the virtual media
capabilities of the Avocent MergePoint
UnityTM switch, a smart card reader can
be mapped from a desktop PC out to a
remote server.
Reduce the need to physically enter the
data centers for local access and control.
The Avocent MergePoint UnitTM switch
provides remote users the capabilities of a
direct physical connection from anywhere
to KVM, USB and serial ports of servers
and other IT equipment.

connectivity?
How can I access a remote server to restart a service or stop a runaway process if my
remote software tools cannot make a connection?
How can I use smart card readers for computer authentication if I am using remote
hardware such as digital KVM switches?
When working on remote server OS or application issues, how can I transfer data or load a
new application if the network connection on that device is down or unavailable?
How can I access the configuration port of a network router or switch that is o-line without
having to take my laptop and a serial cable into the data center?
