1. Product Overview
1.1 Introduction
ComboXCAT-IP redirects local keyboard, mouse and video data to a remote
administration console. It allows you to control one or many computers locally at the
server site or remotely via the Internet using a standard browser. You can securely
gain BIOS level access to systems for maintenance, support, or failure recovery over
the Internet. Communication is secure via SSL authentication and encryption.
ComboXCAT-IP provides convenient, remote KVM access and control via LAN or
Internet. It captures, digitizes, and compresses video signal and transmits it with
keyboard and mouse signals to and from a remote computer. ComboXCAT-IP
provides a non-intrusive solution for remote access and control. Remote access and
control software runs on its embedded processors only but not on mission-critical
servers, so that there is no interference with server operation or impact on network
performance.
