Network & Communication

Keep your sensitive data safe in defense applications, secure control rooms, corporate communications, server operations, educational administrations, medical facilities, banking networks, insurance data centers, transit management, industrial operations, intelligence communications, and more. This Secure KVM Switch features mechanical, electrical, and optical signal isolation to prevent hacking and data leakage in environments where security is paramount. Use the switch to control KVM (Keyboard, Video, and Mouse) operation on up to two, four, or eight computers with one or two DisplayPort displays.

Certified for NIAP Protection Profile for Peripheral Sharing Device Version 4.0
The Secure KVM Switches are tested and certified under the USA scheme for NIAP Protection Profile 4.0 so you get the best data protection available on the market today.

Control the Switch via Front-Panel Buttons
Use the clearly marked front-panel buttons for controlling the device, so securely switching between sources is always simple.

Isolated Data Channels and Non-Reprogrammable ROM Ensure Maximum Security
Data relays work one at a time to shield connections from outside intrusion. Inverted signals control the data relays. Each port uses its own isolated data channel and each unit features non-reprogrammable ROM to better protect the switch's functions. There is no data leakage between ports. Would-be hackers can never gain access to your sensitive data by compromising the switch's ROM.

Protects from Internet Data Breaches
The switch offers the highest security when accessing classified and public networks over the internet through isolated connections. By isolating connections between networks, no data is leaked between secure ports and the outside world.

Secure EDID Learn and Video Emulation
The Secure KVM emulates (simulates) the presence of a keyboard and mouse for every attached computer through a USB cable. Both selected and non-selected computers maintain a constant connection with the unit's keyboard-mouse emulation controllers, allowing for ultra-fast switching and restricting the discovery of newly connected peripherals during switching operations. Emulation of keyboard and mouse also prevents the direct connection between the peripherals and the connected computers, shielding systems from potential vulnerabilities.

Tamperproof Seals Protect Your Devices
Built-in tamperproof seals and a long-life internal anti-tamper battery add even more security for your devices.

Perfect for government operations, defense applications, secure control rooms in airports and other transportation hubs, medical facilities, banks, factories, and more, the Touchscreen Controller, KVM enables control of a Secure KVM Switch from just one USB cable.

Create a Futureproof, Hybrid Installation

The Touchscreen Controller can easily be integrated in the future to work seamlessly between Secure and Non-Secure KVM Switches. Instantly synchronize the controller to the switch via the switch's front-panel indicators. Leverage RS-232 to customize settings for future control of other devices.

Remedying a server problem in a room without a local user console used to mean wheeling in the "crash cart" a rolling cart loaded with a keyboard, monitor, mouse, and a bunch of connecting cables for on-the-spot computer access.

But with the USB Laptop Console Crash Cart Adapter with integrated cabling, you have a compact and easier way to get immediate, BIOS-level access to your server.

Despite its name, there's no actual "cart" involved. In this case, the cart is the laptop that you carry to the server and, using the adapter, plug in to obtain quick server access.

Connect to the video port of any server in trouble to perform an emergency system recovery, carry out routine system maintenance, or do whatever server task you like - just as if you had a full KVM console with a VGA monitor connected to the server itself.

How it Works
Emulating a USB keyboard and mouse, the USB Laptop Console Crash Cart Adapter and its software enable you to interact with the target server as a window on your laptop.

For server connections, the adapter has built-in VGA video and USB keyboard/mouse connectors. On the laptop side, it features a high-speed (480-Mbps) USB Mini Type B connector with a detachable USB cable for server-to-laptop links. For older PS/2 style keyboards (the adapter doesn't support PS/2 mice), there's a passive PS/2 to USB adapter included.

The fully hot-pluggable adapter requires no external power (it gets it all from the connected system or laptop) making it truly portable and easy to use.

Versatile Video Scaling Options
There's no need to load any drivers or software on the server - all the software goes on your laptop. And it's no ordinary terminal emulation software. The adapter's software gives you real-time video scaling so you can always see the entire screen, even on small laptop displays. Enlarge the window to use all pixels of your laptop (with or without the laptop taskbar seen), or shrink to view another application next to it. Video adjustments also include sample phase sharpening and video noise filtering.

What's more, upon rebooting the connected system, the software interface gives you a command-line interface and BIOS-level visibility from start to finish.

You can even take screen snapshots (as PNG or JPEG files) for system analysis later.

Possible applications:

• Performing maintenance in server rooms without a lot of space, where you can't fit a crash cart or install a KVM console tray in the rack or cabinet.
• Classrooms where the server or CPUs are stored in the back of the room and you need quick access to diagnose a problem while students are actively working at their computers.
• Troubleshooting ATMs, kiosks, and retail PoS/PoP systems in stores and other areas heavily trafficked by the public.
• Configuring digital signage in real-time at the screen, away from the controlling PC (just plug the adapter into the player).
• Any field application where you need to interact with target computers.

ServView17 CX Switching Modules are new switching options for use with the ServView17. Control up to 16 multiplatform computers from your ServView17 tray console, with expansion options to increase the number of servers available.

ServSwitch CX UNO IP guarantees a high level of quality and compatibility across multiple server hardware and software platforms. It comes with 8 or 16 computer ports that can be adapted to either PS/2, USB or Sun via Server Access Modules (SAMs) for each server connection. All platforms are available with stereo audio support for speakers!

Use convenient network-style CATx patch cables. Servers can be placed up to 10m away from the switching modules over a simple CATx cable.

These switching modules offer various port configurations and remote access options:

• The non-IP modules (KVT8CATUV and KVT16CATUC) provide access over the KVM tray plus a KVM extension port that enables a second KVM console to access the switch from 300m away using standard CATx cabling and a CATmix extender remote unit.
• The KVMoIP modules enable network users to control the switching module, besides the local tray, from one computer on the LAN or WAN using a VNC client (included) or web browser.
• For high availability order KVT4IP16CATUV, which enables up to four IP sessions to simultaneously access different computers.
• The IP engine supports resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 60Hz to ensure there is enough power to allow smooth KVM over IP control.

Control the modules using the OnScreen Display (OSD) menu, pushbuttons, hotkeys or mouse. Expand the system by using the ServSwitch CX UNO. Connect the CX Uno as a satellite using a single CATx cable.

With these switching modules, users can control a serial power switch, enable password security access with user profiles, respond to RS232 switching commands and much more.

KVMoIP modules come with free wizard.net management software, simplifying the access, security, and management systems with larger numbers of computers or users.

Order the modules separately to expand your existing ServView17 with CX switching capabilities or order a ServView17 with build-in CX modules (see solution products below).

• Control via on-screen display (OSD) menu, hotkeys, or mouse.
