KVM.net II is a centralized management solution
for access to servers, Virtual servers, Blade consoles
and network devices in the server room and data
center environments. It consolidates management
of access to servers and network devices, unifying
administration of targets and users across geographic
locations to distributed branch offices. An
Intuitive, browser based GUI simplifies seamless
access management, providing complete transparency
for users regardless of location and topology.
The KVM.net II system includes a KVM.net II Manager
appliance, and any number of Minicom KVM IP devices,
currently the PX, Smart 116/216/232 IP, SmartRack
116 IP, and IP Control, as well as any number of
IT devices such as IP Camera, environmental monitoring,
routers etc. In addition to KVM access management,
the KVM.net® II provides a powerful Access Services™
feature that supports a wide range of remote access
technologies including Serial, RDP, VNC, SSH, Telnet,
VMware, HP ILO and Web Services. It enables the
assignment of multiple services to a single target
device, so you have the option of in-band or out-of-band
access to the same device. KVM.net II goes
farther still and enables you to effortlessly integrate
any new remote access technology into the remote
access portal.

The open, vendor independent system leverages existing
installations and legacy systems with smarter management
of different server/ data center configurations.
It is the only available solution for access and
control over mixed server environments of 3rd party
switches. KVM.net II aligns with your existing architecture,
fully preserving your investment in your current
KVM infrastructure. KVM.net II is a fully
scalable system that grows with your out-of-band
infrastructure. Automatic discovery of all IP devices
attached to the system eases installation and maintenance,
allowing you to easily add or remove targets and
users from the system.
PX - Single server IP device
The PX is a compact, cost effective, single server
IP device for non-blocking access to servers. The
high performance device provides superior video,
real-time mouse synchronization, SSL encryption,
and full screen mode. Connecting a PX to each of
your mission critical servers turns the KVM.net
II system into a fully secure, digital, non-blocking
matrix solution allowing any number of remote users
to control any number of servers, regardless of
their physical location and topology. The rack-mountable
PX uses Power Over Ethernet technology (POE switch
or MidSpan power hub) for efficient, clutter free
power management.
Smart IP Access - Remote access to your legacy switches
and servers
Smart IP Access provides KVM/IP access to servers
and analog KVM switches. It is designed to work
with all Minicom and most 3rd party switches. The
feature rich device provides superior video, real-time
mouse synchronization, SSL encryption, and full
screen mode. The Smart IP Access can also be used
in stand-alone applications for direct remote KVM
access.
