AlterPath KVM RP
While using the AlterPath KVM RP, an administrator has full access to the
OSD menus, so all local administration tasks can be performed in an office or
at any other location up to 500 feet away from the KVM. In addition, you do
not need a dedicated monitor, keyboard, and mouse to use the RP; the RP box
allows you to use the monitor, keyboard, and mouse of your regular
workstation and use keyboard shortcuts to toggle between the view at your
local work station and the view of the KVM. The RP also offers keyboard
shortcuts to manage the extended local access to the KVM. The following
diagram displays the connections between the RP, the KVM, and the local
keyboard, monitor, and mouse. The AlterPath KVM RP is available in one
model whose part number is ATP4710.
