MasterConsole CAT - Raritan Analog KVM Switch

Raritan’ s MasterConsole® CAT analog Cat5 KVM switch consolidates access and control of multiple servers to a single workstation. Ideal for reducing clutter and expenses in the server room, this compact KVM features ports for 8 or 16 servers and can be cascaded to support up to 256 connections. MasterConsole CAT is available: As a single-user switch ( MCCAT 18/ 116) And a dual-user switch ( MCCAT 28/ 216) With the MCCAT 28 and 216, the second user work station can be located up to 100 ft ( 30m) away from the main unit, so the second work station can be placed outside of the server room for “ lights-out” access. MasterConsole CAT works with Windows® , Linux® , UNIX® and Novell® servers. Dual-user switch models also support Macintosh® and Sun™ servers. MasterConsole CAT provides bulletproof reliability and performance, with: A dedicated, intelligent processor at each port, so each connected server " sees" its own keyboard and mouse A unique " keep-alive" design, which ensures nonstop server operation in case of power loss to the switch Support of high-resolution video – up to 1600 x 1200 Support of MCUTP Cat5 Simplicity™ cables – the industry’ s first and only fixed length Cat5 UTP cable with CIMs ( Computer Interface Modules) for fast, easy connections to servers within 20 feet ( 6m) of the switch ( for MCCAT28/ MCCAT216 only) By combining leading-edge technology and scalability — including server selection from the front panel channel buttons or by name from pop-up, on-screen menus — MasterConsole CAT is also designed for flexibility.
