1. Introduction The DX system from Minicom is a superior solution for centralized KVM & Serial
management.
The DX system combines the following four major functions:
· KVM switching and control
· Serial control
· Power management
· User management
The DX unifies the above functions using AIM (Advanced Integrated
Management). AIM is an innovative embedded Graphical User Interface (GUI) that
supplies advanced management functionality in a hardware-only based solution.
AIM combines the management of all the above four functions within a single
intuitive interface, for truly unified administration of your server environment.
The DX comes in 2 models for 4 or 8 users. Users can access and control multiple
multi-platform computers from Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) consoles. You can
connect up to 32 devices - computers, Serial devices, KVM switches or more DX
boxes (for cascading) - to either model.
