Features and Benefits

The Avocent AutoView® Wireless Keyboard, Video, Mouse (KVM) switch provides connectivity from monitors, keyboards, mice and audio devices to computers without cables. The 802.11a-based design is a hardware-only solution requiring no new operating system, drivers or application software. The wireless transmitter(s) and receiver(s) are the building blocks for a user-definable 2 x 8 KVM switch or 1 x 8 video broadcasting solution. The firmware features a user-friendly On- Screen Display (OSD) for managing connectivity, making adjustments and tuning the video settings. Its industry standard design makes the AutoView Wireless switch compatible with virtually any PC, display technology and operating system.

The AutoView Wireless On-Screen Display (OSD)

The AutoView Wireless OSD makes it simple to set up and adjust your video parameters. Accessed from the receiver side, the OSD makes tuning your video fast and convenient. Available computers can be selected via keyboard or mouse commands.

Secure connectivity and 802.11a standards-based design

The AutoView Wireless switch can be operated in shared or private mode. In shared mode, multiple users may view the same computer and swap control when needed. When security is needed, private mode allows only one user to access and control the selected computer. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) ensures that connections are secure.

Video broadcast configuration

The AutoView Wireless switch can also be installed in a video broadcast configuration where one computer may be attached to multiple monitors. Simply connect a transmitter to a single computer, and add up to eight sets of peripherals via AutoView Wireless receivers.
