Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a StarTech.com 4-Port IP KVM Switch with USB Console. The SV441DUSBI revolutionizes remote server manage- ment by combining our industry-leading, third generation Server Remote Control technology with a proven Enterprise class digital KVM switch.

The SV441DUSBI empowers you to securely manage up to four comput- ers remotely from almost anywhere using the internet or your local area network (LAN). Unlike software solutions that require installation and work through your server’s operating system, the SV441DUSBI gives you BIOS level control and full interaction with your system’s boot process. Control does not come at the expense of security: SSH tunneling, SSL encryp- tion, RADIUS authentication, and a configurable firewall are all included to ensure that your network stays secure. Its standardized 1U rack-mount- able metal chassis allows easy installation in your existing rack or cabinet solution.

Server Remote Control is about more than just servers. Using the Serial Remote Interface Module (RPORT), you can interact with virtually any device that uses a RS-232 serial terminal interface like routers, switches, environmental controls, alarm systems, and more. You can also use StarTech.com’s 8 outlet Remote Power Module (PCM815SHNA) to power computers and equipment on an off using an interactive menu.

The SV441DUSBI is the perfect solution for any organization that demands secure, flexible, local and remote administration of its critical systems.
