Overview

UltraConsole is a single user kvm switch that allows a central user station to connect to four, eight, or sixteen computers per chassis, and is expandable up to as many as 1,000 computers or serial devices by cascading additional units.

UltraConsole series is produced in 1 x 4, 1 x 8, and 1 x 16 models. Units easily connect together with bus cables to make a seamless and truly scalable kvm solution. The modular architecture uses plug-in expansion cards available with different form factors, making for simple expansion and giving it the flexibility needed to conform to almost any system.

The advanced design of UltraConsole uses networking communication technology to reduce cost, eliminate single points of failure, and increase reliability. The on-screen menus and instructions make configuring, monitoring, and installation easy. Use the on-screen menus to name computers and select computers, view connections, assign users, configure system security, and perform other operations.

UltraConsole provides serial support to access computers, routers, Ethernet hubs, UNIX devices and more. It can perform as a "VT100/VT220" terminal emulator with an eight-page scroll buffer. Local monitor connection, security, flash memory, system status, and many other features ensure that UltraConsole will streamline your data center or server room and provide a centralized access point for your system.
