Introduction
Overview
The CN-6000 is a control unit that allows operators to monitor and access their computers from remote locations. The CN-6000 connects to the Internet, an Intranet, LAN, or WAN using industry standard Category 5 cable, then uses KVM cable to connect to a local KVM switch or server.
Since the CN-6000 uses TCP/IP for its communications protocol, the server or KVM switch it is connected to can be accessed from any computer on the Net - whether that computer is located down the hall, down the street, or half-way around the world.
Operators at remote locations connect to the CN-6000 via its IP address. Once a connection has been established and authorization granted, operators of the remote computer can exchange keyboard, video and mouse signals with the server (or servers on a KVM switch installation), just as if they were present locally and working on the equipment directly.
