ATEN KH1516Ai-1

The KH1516Ai Cat 5 High-Density KVM over IP Switch is a 16-port device in a 1U-high housing allowing local and remote operators to monitor and access the entire enterprise data center over the Internet using a web-based browser.
ATEN KH1516Ai-2
The KH1516Ai features Cat 5e/6 cable to link to CPU modules attached to the servers, this arrangement has several advantages over standard KVM cabling:

  • The use of CAT5e/6 cables permit distances between server and KVM up to 160 ft with our new 7000 series modules.
  • CAT5e/6 cables are considerably lighter and easier to manipulate than traditional KVM cables
  • The KVM works with any combination of PS/2, USB, Sun, and serial devices by merely connecting the applicable module.

In addition to TCP/IP connectivity, the KH1516Ai provides KVM ports for a locally attached USB and / or PS/2 console and a Mini-USB port for a VNC Laptop console – allowing access and control from the data center, over the Net, or from a laptop’s USB connection. This is a single bus unit, so although up to 32 users may be logged in simultaneously only one operator has control. A special Message Board feature – similar to an internet chat program – lets all logged in users exchange information and communicate with each other to manage the installation cooperatively. Other features that contribute to the switch’s versatility include:

  • Panel Array Mode- which allows real-time monitoring of up to 16 servers simultaneously in a grid arrangement.
  • Mouse DynaSync™ ensures remote and local mouse pointer alignment
  • Adapter ID, the adapter holds the computer name assigned to the server and all user account information so there is no need to re-identify moved servers and their users permissions.
  • VNC Port this mini-USB port allows a laptop to be connected via VNC for local access and control

Feature :

  • Dedicated USB port directly connects to a laptop for easy console operation
  • High port density – RJ-45 connectors for up to 16 ports in a 1U housing
  • One bus for remote KVM over IP access

  • Daisy chain up to 31 additional units – control up to 256 (KH1508Ai) or 512 (KH1516Ai) computers from a single console.
  • Up to 64 user accounts – up to 32 users simultaneously share the control
  • End session feature – administrators can terminate running sessions
  • Event logging and Windows-based Log Server support
  • Local Log Event
  • Firmware upgradeable

  • Device ID and attributes are stored in the adapter cables allowing you to hot-swap port connections without having to reconfigure attributes.
  • Local keyboard broadcast – keyboard input can be duplicated on all the attached servers.
  • Remote authentication support: RADIUS, LDAP, LDAPS, and MS Active Directory
  • Advanced security features include password protection and advanced encryption technologies – 1024 bit RSA; 56 bit DES; 256 bit AES; and 128 bit SSL
  • Flexible encryption design allows users to choose any combination of 56- bit DES, 168-bit 3DES 256-bit AES, 128-bit RC4, or Random for independent KB/Mouse, video, and virtual media data encryption
  • Support for IP/MAC Filter
  • Configurable user and group permissions for server access and control
  • Video quality and video tolerance can be adjusted to optimize data transfer speed; monochrome color depth setting, threshold and noise settings for compression of the data bandwidth in low bandwidth situations
  • Full screen or scalable video display
  • Message Board for communication among remote users
  • Mouse DynaSync™ – automatically synchronizes the local and remote mouse movements
  • On-screen keyboard with multi-language support
