Eaton NetDirector - KVM console with KVM switch

Control as Many as 16 Computers or Servers from Anywhere in the World

This NetDirector Cat5 KVM over IP switch provides complete control of up to 16 computers and/or servers located up to 100 feet (30.5 meters) away. The B064C-16-1X1-IP is a comprehensive network management solution that installs in 1U of space in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack using the included hardware. No server-resident software is required, so server performance and reliability are never compromised. Flash-upgradable firmware over an Ethernet network fine-tunes compatibility with emerging standards.

Simple Network Control That Gives You More Flexibility

This Cat5 switch gives you a rack-mountable keyboard, LCD and touchpad in a single console, designed to ease multi-server management in data centers, server rooms and other high-density environments. Built-in IP capability allows up to two users, one local and one remote, to access the network independently and simultaneously. You may also select a connected computer using a remote toolbar, OSD (on-screen display), pushbuttons or hot keys. An LED per port indicates which connected computers are online or in use.

High-Resolution On-Screen Display Offers Multi-Language Support

The advanced OSD with high-resolution video up to 1920 x 1200 (at 60 Hz) or 1280 x 1024 (at 75 Hz) provides a GUI with management tools, including auto-scanning and panel array mode. The OSD may be set to display in English, German, Russian, Japanese, traditional Chinese or simplified Chinese.

Supports Both IPv4 and IPv6 Addresses

The B064C-16-1X1-IP supports IPv4 and IPv6 protocols. Remote access avoids costly and time-consuming travel to the server room or network closet. You may set the IP address manually or have it automatically assigned via DHCP server (the default method). A non-browser client is available that allows Windows computers to remotely access the KVM without the need for a browser and without the need to install Java.

Heightened Security of Every Connection

Multi-level password protection helps prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to connected servers/computers. Remote authentication support is provided via RADIUS and LDAP/S. The B064C-16-1X1-IP also incorporates advanced encryption technologies: 128-bit RC4, 168-bit 3DES, 256-bit AES and 56-bit DES. You can install SSL certificates to ensure secure transactions between web servers and browsers. An easy-to-access log tracks events on your installation.

Network-Wide Storage Media Access

Virtual Media capability allows any computer connected to the KVM via a B055-Series server interface unit to access DVD/CD drives, flash drives and other storage media from a remote computer, as if it were directly connected. This allows administrators to perform file transfers, install software and perform diagnostics across a network. A USB port is provided on the front panel for use with Virtual Media or USB peripheral devices.

TAA-Compliant for GSA Schedule Purchases

The B064C-16-1X1-IP is compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which makes it eligible for GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.
