Flash upgradeable firmware over the network

Server Interface Unit (SIU) information is stored by the KVM switch. When switched to a different port, the port settings (Port OS, OS Language, etc.) for the SIU are transferred along with it

Virtual Media allows computers connected to the KVM switch by a B055-001-USB-V2 SIU to access DVD/CD drives, flash drives and other storage media as if they were directly connected to the computer (works in either the operating system or BIOS level)

Includes three USB ports on the front of the unit that can be used for an external keyboard and mouse or for virtual media functionality

Dual power supplies allow the unit to continue running in the event one power supply ceases to receive power. If one power supply fails, the other powers supply takes over to keep the unit powered and functional

Temperature sensors determine if fans are needed to cool the device and at what speed. The fan speed increases/decreases along with the temperature, using energy more efficiently and increasing the life of the fans and switch

Track critical events on the installation via SMTP email notification, SNMP traps, the included Windows-based Log Server or Syslog server

Users can choose between any combination of 56-bit DES, 168- bit 3DES, 256-bit AES, 128-bit RC4 or Random for independent Keyboard/Mouse, video and virtual media data encryption

Support Exit Macros

BIOS level access

Supports Link Local IPv6 Address and IPv6 Stateless Autoconfiguration protocols

Modem out of band Dial In, Dial Out, Dial Back support

Automated Certificate Signing Request (CSR) creation utility

Remote Console Computer Requirements

Browsers must support 128-bit SSL encryption.

For the browser-based Java Applet and non-browser AP Java Client, the latest version of Sun’s Java Runtime Environment (JRE) must be installed, and 250 MB of memory available after installation.

For the Log Server, you must have the Microsoft Jet OLEDB 4.0 or higher driver installed.

For best results we recommend that the computers used to access the switch have at least a Pentium III, 1 GHz processor, with their screen resolution set to 1024 x 768.

For best results, a network transfer speed of at least 512 kbps is recommended.

For the browser-based Windows Client, DirectX 8 must be installed, and at least 150MB of memory available after installation.

For the non-browser AP Windows client, DirectX 8 must be installed, and at least 90MB of memory available after installation.
