Call (404) 321-0556 Considerations when evaluating a Multi-User KVM Switch What expansion options (for both your users/administrators and your servers) does this KVM switching solution offer? What are the KVM switches' cable length limitations? How much cabling is required? What type of cable media does the KVM switch require - coax cable, single or dual cat5,fiber optic. Some use more than one, for example cat5 and coax - an important topology consideration when considering cost and ease of installation. What are it's multi-platform capabilities, and for non-PC environments does the KVM do keyboard mapping or allow you to use your native keyboard? Does the level of security the KVM offers suit your needs? What redundancy does the KVM offer if one of it's components were to go down? And how will a failure of any of the KVM switches/components affect your servers and your ability to control them? How is KVM extension handled?  Does the KVM offer ip and in-band options? What are the KVM's power cycling options? All KVM's save your rack space, but how much differs greatly depending on the matrix topology of the KVM.  For for  KVM switches call: (404) 321-0556.   KVM over IP Atlanta Analog and IP-based KVM switching for local access from anywhere in the data center and IP-based access for extended or remote users.

ADVANCED AUTHENTICATION AND SECURITY FEATURES
Security is critical to any server installation. That's why the DS1800 relies on an Authentication service to determine user access rights and establish communication between users and DS1800 units. Simply describe the configuration of computers and switches attached to the DS1800, then determine which computers a user or group of users can manipulate. User names and groups come directly from the Windows NT administration tools, eliminating the need for redundant management systems.

RELIABLE, FLEXIBLE AND SCALABLE

The DS1800's decentralized, intelligent components provide reliable user access to any system server. This flexible, infinitely scalable system is field-upgradeable and has no single point of failure. Industry-standard Ethernet 10/100 connectivity lets you place the DS1800 anywhere on the network without concern for distance limitations. Servers and users can be placed in convenient locations - even in separate areas.
