Introduction
Overview
The KN2116VA / KN4116VA / KN2132VA / KN4132VA / KN8132V /
KN4164V / KN8164V switches are IP-based KVM control units that allow
both local and remote operators to monitor and access multiple servers from a
single console. The KN8 Series series can control up to 16/32/64 servers, and
by cascading compatible KVM switches, as many as 512 servers can be
controlled on a complete two stage installation. The KN8 Series of KVM over
IP switches provide superior video quality with resolutions up to 1920 x 1200,
faster virtual media transmission speeds for accessing USB drives and support
of IPS 140-2 level 1 security standards.
The KN8 Series of switches are differentiated according to the number of buses
they support and the number of KVM ports they provide – as shown below:
Each bus permits a separate user session so that up to 3 (1 Local; 2 Remote), 5
(1 Local; 4 Remote) or 9 (1 Local; 8 Remote) concurrent independent
connections to the attached servers can take place. The diagram on the next
page shows how the KN8164V switch can be connected and accessed locally
and remotely.
