Avocent MergePoint Unity MPU4032DAC-001 Digital KVM 13491051

Access the MergePoint Unity switch via a standard TCP/IP network. The MergePoint Unity switches provide agentless remote control and access. No special software or drivers are required on the attached servers or client. Users access the MergePoint Unity switch and all attached systems via Ethernet or using a V.34, V.90 or V.92 modem from a client. The clients can be located anywhere a valid network connection exists. True serial capabilities. The MergePoint Unity switch supports the MPUIQ-SRL module, which provides true serial capabilities through Telnet. You can launch an SSH session or launch a serial viewer from the on-board web interface (OBWI) to connect the MergePoint Unity switchs attached target devices that have an MPUIQ-SRL module. Reduce cable bulk. With server densities continually increasing, cable bulk remains a major concern for network administrators. The MergePoint Unity switches significantly reduce KVM cable volume in the rack by utilizing the innovative IQ module and single, industry-standard Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling. This allows a higher server density while providing greater airflow and cooling capacity. Control of virtual media and smart card-capable appliances. The MergePoint Unity switches allow you to view, move or copy data located on virtual media to and from any target device. Manage remote systems more efficiently by allowing operating system installation, operating system recovery, hard drive recovery or duplication, BIOS updating and target device backup. The MergePoint Unity switches allow you to use smart cards in conjunction with your MergePoint Unity switch system. Smart cards are pocket-sized cards that store and process 2 MergePoint Unity Switch Installer/User Guide information. Smart cards such as the Common Access Card (CAC) can be used to store identification and authentication to enable access to computers, networks and secure rooms or buildings. Virtual media and smart card readers can be connected directly to the switch using USB ports located on the switch. In addition, virtual media and smart card readers may be connected to any remote workstation that is running the remote OBWI or DSView 3 management software and is connected to the MergePoint Unity switch using an Ethernet connection. DSView 3 management software plug-in. The DSView 3 software may be used with the MergePoint Unity switch to allow IT administrators to remotely access, monitor and control target devices on multiple platforms through a single, web-based user interface. KVM switching capabilities. The MergePoint Unity switch supports IQ modules, which are powered directly from the target device and provides Keep Alive functionality when the switch is not powered. Local and remote user interfaces. You can use the local user interface (local UI) by connecting directly to the local port to manage the MergePoint Unity switch. You can also use the remote OBWI to manage your switch system. The OBWI is web-browser based and is launched directly from the switch, and any servers connected to the MergePoint Unity switch are automatically detected. The two user interfaces share a similar look and feel for an optimal user experience.
