| Minicom Launches New Line of Dual-User KVM Switches  Minicom Advanced Systems is launching two new multi-user KVM switches for IT managers of server rooms and data centers – the Smart 216 and the Smart 232. The new products allow two users to control up to 16 or 32 mixed-platform (PS/2 & USB) servers. They also provide seamless power control via Minicom's Serial Remote Power Switch (RPS).Easy installation via user friendly OSD and compatibility is increased thanks to USB keyboard and mouse console. Physically, the Smart 216 and Smart 232 are both thin 1U sized rack-mountable devices that save critical space in crowded computer room environments. They both feature Minicom KVM over CAT5 technology that directly connects the switch to each computer in the server room, eliminating cable clutter and extending the distance between server and switch up to 30m/100ft. The Smart 216 and Smart 232 strengthen Minicom's position in the KVM market by going to the next level of control. From a single remote user product line (Smart 108, Smart116) Minicom now offers a dual user line. In addition Minicom offers a full line of remote access switches for both single and multiple users (Smart 116 IP, Smart 216 IP and Smart 232 IP). write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Networking News :: home page |
