Tripp Lite by Eaton NetDirector 32-Port Cat5 KVM over IP Switch - Virtual Media 4 Remote + 1 Local User 1U Rack-Mount TAA

Tripp Lite's 32-port NetDirector Cat5 IP KVM Switch is the optimal solution for remotely controlling multiple computers (combination of PS/2, USB and Serial) by up to 5 (1 Local and 4 Remote) independent, simultaneous users. A single unit occupies a mere 1U of rack space, yet can control up to 32 directly connected computers, and a maximum of 512 computers when a second level of B064-016 KVM switches are cascaded. A full-screen graphical OSD with multi-level authentication (Super Administrator, Administrator and User) allows you to quickly and efficiently manage your installation, and can be displayed in English, German, Russian, Japanese, traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. Critical events on the installation can be tracked via email notification, SNMP traps, the Windows-based log server or Syslog server. Accessing the connected computers is a breeze; view multiple computers at the same time using panel array mode, automatically sync USB mice, access the on-screen keyboard feature in numerous language formats. Virtual Media allows computers connected using a B055-001-USB-V2 Server Interface Unit to access DVD/CD drives, flash drives and other storage media as if they were directly connected to the computer. In addition, three USB ports are located on the front panel of the unit for use with Virtual Media or an external keyboard and mouse. Other features include dual power supplies that allow the unit to continue running in the event one power supply stops receiving power, temperature sensors that control the speed of the unit's cooling fans, remote authentication support via RADIUS, LDAP, LDAPS and Active Directory, dial-in modem access and non-browser access using Windows and Java applications. Constructed of heavy-duty steel housing. 3 year limited warranty.

32-Port Rackmount Cat5 KVM Switch Controls Up to 512 Servers

Tripp Lite's B064-032-04-IPG NetDirector 32-Port Rackmount Cat5 IP KVM Switch is the smart solution for controlling multiple computers and servers in complex, demanding IT environments. Requiring just 1U of rack space, the B064-032-04-IPG features a rugged housing, premium connectors and superior functionality to ensure trouble-free operation in demanding high-availability environments. The B064-032-04-IPG can control 32 servers/computers directly, or up to 512 by cascading additional KVM switches. It is compatible with both PS/2 and USB connections using Tripp Lite B055-001-Series server interface units and inexpensive Cat5 patch cables (available separately). Redundant dual power supplies assure that the B064-032-04-IPG will continue running if the primary power supply fails. Built-in IP capability enables one local and four remote users to access the network independently and simultaneously.

All-in-One Network Management for Critical Systems

The B064-032-04-IPG offers a comprehensive, cost-effective network management solution that installs in 1U of rack space. No server-resident software is required, so server performance and reliability are never compromised. Flash-upgradable firmware fine-tunes compatibility with emerging standards.

Supports Multiple Platforms

The B064-032-04-IPG supports both PS/2 and USB connections (Tripp Lite B055-001-Series server interface units and Cat5 patch cables required; sold separately). Because compatibility is based on common hardware standards rather than system software dependencies, almost any platform can be accommodated. The B064-032-04-IPG is compatible with all major operating systems.

Control Hundreds of Computers

The B064-032-04-IPG is capable of controlling up to 512 servers/computers by cascading additional B064-016 KVM switches. This gives network managers the flexibility to add capacity when it's needed, accommodating growing data center requirements without disrupting existing equipment.

Secure Every Connection

The B064-032-04-IPG offers three levels of password protection (super administrator, administrator and user) for up to five users (one local and four remote) to prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to connected servers/computers. Remote authentication support is provided via RADIUS, LDAP, LDAPS and Active Directory. The B064-032-04-IPG also incorporates advanced encryption technologies: 1024 bit RSA; 56 bit DES; 256 bit AES and 128 bit SSL.

Simple, Flexible Network Control

The B064-032-04-IPG is designed to ease multi-server management in data centers, server rooms and other high-density environments. Its built-in IP capability enables one local and four remote users to access the network independently and simultaneously. An optional dial-in connection is provided to assure access in situations when the KVM switch is not available over the primary network. An advanced on screen display (OSD) with high-resolution video up to 1600 x 1200 provides a graphical user interface with management tools including custom port labeling, auto-scanning and panel array mode. The OSD may be set to display in English, German, Russian, Japanese, traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. Users may also select a connected computer using on-console pushbuttons or keyboard hotkey commands. Two LEDs per KVM port indicate (1) when a computer is connected to a KVM port and powered on, (2) when no computer is connected to the KVM port or the connected computer is not powered on, and (3) when a connected, powered-on computer is selected.
