KVM/netPlus
Enterprise KVM over IP Solutions
The AlterPath™ KVM/netPlus family of
enterprise-class KVM over IP switches is
designed for local and remote server
administration with centralized management and
advanced security features. The AlterPath
KVM/netPlus is the industry's first KVM solution
to offer Cyclades AdaptiveKVM
TM
technology
(patent pending) that combines Microsoft
®
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) functionality
with KVM over IP access in a single device.
The AdaptiveK VM feature allows users to
manage most administrative tasks using the
efficient RDP protocol, delivering seamless
performance, even over low-bandwidth
connections. The AlterPath KVM/netPlus can
easily switch from RDP sessions to KVM over IP
sessions when Windows-based servers are down
or become disconnected from the IT production
network. The AlterPath KVM/netPlus provides a
cost-effective and simplified management
solution over low-bandwidth connections.
Fully integrated security features include serverbased authentication and support for RADIUS,
TACACS+, LDAP, Kerberos, NTLM, NIS and
Active Directory. In addition, the AlterPath
KVM/netPlus supports user access control lists
(ACLs) per port and user access logging. This
allows IT managers and administrators to manage
their servers with greater control and peace of
mind.
The AlterPath KVM/netPlus can also be
combined with the AlterPath Manager, Cyclades
out-of-band infrastructure (OOBI) manager, to
provide users with a consolidated view of all
KVM ports, centralized security and data logging.
This reduces network maintenance costs and
provides easier and faster provisioning of the
OOBI.
Available in 6 models, providing 1, 2 or 4 digital
channel access to 16 or 32 servers in 1U of rack
space, the AlterPath KVM/netPlus helps
streamline remote access to servers throughout
the IT infrastructure and includes the scalability
and security features to accomplish this objective.
The AlterPath KVM/netPlus reduces operational
costs and risks while increasing IT personnel
efficiency and productivity.
Application Example
Applications:
• KVM switching and control
• Local and remote server administration
• RDP sessions to provide enhanced remote
performance – even over low-bandwidth connections
• Simultaneous local and remote access to servers and
workstations for multiple users
• Power and temperature management
