Introduction
Thank you for choosing the ServSwitch CX Quad IP
from Black Box. This compact unit allows one local
user plus four global users (located anywhere that has
a network/internet connection) to view and take full
control of multiple host computer systems.
Each global user simply requires a Real VNC client
application which is supplied on CD and can also be
downloaded from various locations, even from the
ServSwitch CX Quad IP unit itself. Alternatively, the
unit can quickly serve a Java applet to a global user,
requiring only a standard internet browser to operate.
Like the other models within the highly successful
ServSwitch CX family, this unit takes full advantage of
category 5, 5e or 6 structured cabling to provide flexible
installation and configuration. Every connected computer
is linked by up to ten metres of standard CATx cable
and one of five types of SAM (Server Access Module)
according to the port arrangements on each computer.
The ServSwitch CX Quad IP can directly support up to
sixteen computers, however, this total can be increased
to a maximum of 256 by adding ServSwitch CX Uno
units in cascade to provide a much larger network
of controlled computers. All ServSwitch CX models
provide full enterprise level security to restrict access to
authorized personnel.
A copy of the WIZARD.NET application is included
within the package. This useful utility allows you to
quickly and efficiently manage user groups and their
access permissions across multiple devices such as the
ServSwitch CX Quad IP.
Optional power switch control allows you to remotely
perform a hard reset on any host system, no matter
how badly it may have locked up.
Many computers
Each ServSwitch CX Quad IP unit can directly support sixteen computer
systems.
Each host system is linked using a Server Access Module (SAM) and
category 5, 5e or 6 cabling to a maximum distance of 10m (32 ft) from
the ServSwitch CX Quad IP unit.
Optional power control
You have the opportunity
to attach one or more
power switches. These
control the supply to
the system(s) and allow
a remote user to hard
reset any system that has
suffered a failure.
Local user
One user can
be connected
directly to the
ServSwitch
CX Quad IP.
The local user
has the same
abilities and
status as the
global users.
Global users
The IP models
can support up to
four global users
at any one time.
Each user can
link to any host
computer for
which they have
permission.
SAM formats
The SAMs are available in
different formats to support all
common types of systems, which
can easily be mixed within a
multi-format configuration.
IP network/Internet
The IP port allows direct
connection to an Ethernet-
based local network and
from there onto the wider
Internet.
Alternatively, the robust
ServSwitch CX Quad IP
security system will allow
direct connection to the
outside world.
WIZARD.NET keeping control
For larger installations, the WIZARD.NET application
manages your hosts, devices and users to enable quick
configuration and secure, flexible operation. A copy is
included with every ServSwitch CX Quad IP unit.
