Reclaim precious space while you boost productivity
If your small to midsize server room or data center is getting too cluttered, consolidate your
equipment with a Raritan MasterConsole CAT Cat5 KVM switch, which provides one or two
users centralized control from a single work station. Individual models control up to 8 or 16
servers, and switches can be cascaded to control up to 256 servers at distances of up to
150 ft.
Our MasterConsole CAT switch:
Works with every leading server – Microsoft

Saves you space and allows easier cabling with Cat5/6 cabling. IT administrators have
the choice of either a) using the industry’s first and only fixed-length Cat5 MCUTP
cable with integrated computer interface module (CIM) to connect to servers within
20 feet, or b) using CIMs to connect to servers up to 150 feet away
With the two-user MasterConsole CAT unit, the second user can be located up to 100 ft
(30m) away from the KVM switch, enabling “lights out” access to the server room
With these features and more, MasterConsole CAT is the ideal solution for maintenance,
administration, running GUI applications, troubleshooting – even rebooting your mission-
critical servers.
Bulletproof reliability and performance
MasterConsole CAT is engineered for dependability:
It features a dedicated, intelligent processor at each port so each connected server
“sees” its own keyboard and mouse, preventing lockups
Our unique “keep-alive” design ensures nonstop server operation in case of power
loss to the switch
It supports high-resolution video – up to 1600 x 1200
It ensures authorized access via password security
Leading-edge technology and scalability
MasterConsole CAT is designed for flexibility:
MasterConsole CAT allows server selection from the front panel channel buttons
and by name from pop-up, on-screen menus
Allows you to store multiple user names and profiles
Provides on-site, flash firmware upgrades
Can be cascaded to control up to 256 servers at distances of up to 150 ft
The two-user model supports a user station that can be placed outside the server
room (up to 100 ft away from the switch) for “lights out” access
Plus AutoSkip bypasses inactive channels, and AutoScan scans servers at variable rates
