The UltraMatrix™ Remote 2
Advantage

The UltraMatrix Remote 2 represents the next generation
in KVM switches. It not only provides a comprehensive
solution for remote server console access with Bios-level
access control, it provides a very secure remote access
to your system, locally, from any workstation on your
network, or worldwide over IP using any supported web
browser and the secure RealVNC Viewer.

The powerful, advanced on-screen menu can be used to
configure the unit, name the computers, and much more.

When accessing a computer over your network, the
Viewer application receives and displays the video and
sends back keyboard and mouse data. This process
allows you to access the remote computers from
anywhere, locally, across your network, or around the
world.

The UltraMatrix Remote 2 can easily be expanded to
other KVM switches to make a seamless and truly
scalable KVM matrix solution. Network communication
technology is used to reduce cost, eliminate single
points of failure, and increase reliability.

The RealVNC Viewer simplifies access to the remote
computers and provides an additional layer of security to
the system. Once connected you will see a crisp, clear,
high-quality image of the remote computer. Your remote
keyboard and mouse now control the remote computer.

The UltraMatrix Remote 2 uses flash memory
technology. Upgrades and product
enhancements are easily done by obtaining
unit specific firmware from our web site at
www.rose.com.

With UltraMatrix Remote 2 you have

access to your systems from

anywhere in the world

Introduction The UltraMatrix Remote 2 is a versatile and powerful

product that extends the range of access to your computers from
anywhere in the world. Its user friendly interface and powerful on­screen display makes managing your computers, even at the BIOS
level, easier and more efficient. With the UltraMatrix Remote 2’s
expansion capability, the number of computers that can be remotely
accessed is up to 1,000.

Models The UltraMatrix Remote 2 is available in several different

models. All models are fully expandable in multiple configurations
giving users access to as many as 1,000 computers.

Security System security can be configured to give access to

multiple users, each with a unique user ID and password. Each user
can be granted access to certain computers and restricted from
others. There are four view modes that can be assigned to each
user; view, share, control, and private. This gives the flexibility of
allowing certain users full access or just view capabilities. All
transmissions to and from the remote computer are128 bit encrypted
for added security.

On-screen display The UltraMatrix Remote 2 excels with its on-

screen display (OSD) technology. The intuitive interface uses drop­down lists of computers to connect to and pop-up menus to
configure the unit. User-friendly help lines explain each s elected item.
CPU names, security, appearance, screen saver and many other
features are easily configured. You can use the OSD to connect to
computers by name, view the system connections, and observe
system status in real time. The interface can be programmed for
English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese.

Installation The UltraMatrix Remote 2 is easy to install and

configure. Just connect the unit to the computers to access, connect
the local access KVM stations and connect the unit to your network.
Next configure the IP addresses for unit access over IP and its r eady
to use locally or from around the world.

Operation The RealVNC viewer program is used to remotely

access the computers or servers connected to the UltraMatrix
Remote 2. You can connect to a computer using simple keyboard
commands or an on-screen list of computers. Once a computer is
selected and connected, the remote workstation can fully control,
update, maintain and configure the computer or server.

Flash memory To support the latest devices and provide product

enhancements and features, the UltraMatrix Remote 2 contains flash
memory. Free, lifetime firmware updates are available from our web
site at www.rose.com.

Serial devices Any CPU port on the Multiplatform model can be

configured to be serial. Once configured, the OSD is so powerful that
when you switch to that CPU port it converts to a color VT220 terminal
emulator for that port. When you connect to a serial device, you get a
24x80 screen with two status lines. You can access the serial device just
as if you were connected with a terminal.

Keyboard and mouse The UltraMatrix Remote 2 fully emulates the

keyboard and mouse. You can use any combination of PS/2, USB, Sun,
PS/2 wheel, and serial mice. USB (PC, Apple, and Sun) and serial mouse
are for the computer side only, not the KVM side. It is compatible with all
major operating systems such as Windows, Solaris, Linux, UNIX, SGI,
and OSX.
