CHAPTER 2: Introduction
NOTE
The “-R2” versions of the ServSwitch Duo and Duo Extender are very
different from the original (non-R2) versions. You can connect original
and -R2 Duos in the same cascade, but the original Duos must be used
only on the “lowest level” (that is, they mustn’t have any other switches
between them and the CPUs). It’s possible to use an original Extender
with an -R2 Duo, although we don’t recommend this because the
original Extender can’t make use of the -R2 Duo’s RJ-45 remote user
port. The -R2 Extender can’t be used with the original Duo.
2.1 Features and Benefits
Here are some of the useful features of the ServSwitch Duo/Quadro and some of
the ways those features benefit you:
• Control multiple computer CPUs from two (Duo) or up to four (Quadro)
keyboard/mouse/monitor user stations.
• CPUs can be selected by name or description through an on-screen menu.
• CPUs can be selected for either exclusive, shared, or video-only access.
• Security is configurable; administrators can assign access rights to login-based
user profiles.
• Supports up to 16 user profiles and 512 named CPUs.
• Can be set to autoscan all CPUs, active CPUs, or a list of chosen CPUs.
• One (Duo) or two (Quadro) user ports support both a local and a remote user
that share access to the CPUs on a timeout basis.
• Remote users are connected through a Duo Extender that can be as far as
200 m (655 ft.) of Category 5 cable away.
• Dual redundant power supplies for reliability and peace of mind.
• Continuous keyboard and mouse emulation on all ports ensures reliable
computer bootup. And because all ports are simultaneously active, all attached
CPUs can be booted at the same time.
• Flashable for easy on-site firmware upgrades.
• Serial port for upgrading firmware and uploading and downloading
configuration information.
• Supports high-bandwidth monitors, at resolutions up to 1600 x 1280 pixels and
refresh rates up to 100 Hz, with low distortion.
