MasterConsole Z - Raritan Analog KVM Switch

MasterConsole Z is a space-saving, flexible KVM solution that allows one user to access and manage up to 64 ( PS/ 2, USB, Sun) servers through a daisy-chain of computer interface modules ( MZCIMs) , each of which is connected to a target server. MasterConsole Z is the ideal solution for: Densely packed 1U and 2U rack mount servers Small to medium-sized server rooms, data centers, ISPs and Web hosting facilities Computer test labs, call centers, help desks, training rooms Small and medium-sized businesses, where the servers are not all in the same room System Components The MasterConsole Z system consists of three basic components: 1. User Station ( MZUST) – enables a user console ( keyboard, video and mouse) to access and control up to 64 servers via simple, on-screen user interface. 2. Computer Interface Modules ( MZCIMs) – innovative cables that connect directly to the keyboard, video and mouse ports of target servers via PS/ 2, USB or SUN interfaces to provide failsafe server access using Raritan' s keyboard/ mouse emulation technology. MZCIMs are linked ( chained) one to the next with a single Cat5e UTP cable; the first MZCIM in the chain is linked to the User Station via Cat5e UTP cable. The same cable chain can accommodate PS/ 2, Sun and USB-connected servers. 3. Terminator ( TER-ZCIM) - terminates the daisy-chain of MZCIMs.
