KN2108 / KN2116 User Manual

Remote operators can log in from anywhere on the net via their browser. Once
they successfully log in, operators can take control using either the
Windows
Client
or
Java Client
utility. Inclusion of a Java-based client allows the
switches work with Java 2 enabled operating systems.
The client software allows operators to exchange keyboard, video and mouse
signals with the computers attached to the KN2108 or KN2116 just as if they
were present locally and working on the equipment directly. With the Panel
Array feature, the video output of up to 8 or 16 computers can be displayed at
the same time.
The switches feature RJ-45 connectors allowing them to use CAT 5 cable to
link to the computers. This space-saving innovation means a full 8 or 16 port
switch can be conveniently installed in a 1U system rack, and the installation
can take advantage of the internal network wiring built into most modern
commercial buildings.
Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that is
entailed. Because the switches intercept keyboard input directly, there is no
need to get involved in complex software installation routines, or to be
concerned with incompatibility problems.
Since the firmware is upgradeable over the Net, you can stay current with the
latest functionality improvements simply by downloading firmware updates
from our website as they become available.
With its advanced security features, the KN2108 and KN2116 provide the
fastest, most reliable, most cost effective way to remotely access and manage
widely distributed multiple computer installations.
