FEATURES
You can daisychain these easy-to-use KVM switches to control
hundreds of servers!
Accessible to users from near or far.
Using ServSwitch Duo Switches, 2 users can access 4 to 16 servers.
The ServSwitch Duo has a built-in local extender, so if you want to
connect a keyboard, monitor, and mouse up to 656.1 feet (200 m)
away, just order the Receiver (Remote) Module (ACU5011A). The
ServSwitch Duo has one RJ-45 port. Both the local and remote ports
share server access on a timeout basis.
Up-front and personal switching.
On-screen menus make these switches exceptionally easy to use.
The menus pop up on demand and make it simple to select a server.
Give each server a name that makes sense to you. No software is
required on your servers because their names are stored in the
switches’ memory. You can also switch between servers via on-screen
menus, a three-button mouse, an IntelliMouse, hotkey sequences,
or the front-panel push buttons.

Good in crowds, and very friendly.
These switches handle large installations, too. Daisychain them
to control hundreds of servers!
Compatibility is no problem either. They support a wide range
of PC-compatible hardware and software platforms, including some
high-end IBM
®
PS/2 compatible computers such as IBM RS/6000
®
,
Compaq
®
, Alpha
®
, and SGI
®
.
The ServSwitch Duo works with PC/AT
®
serial and PS/2
®
mice and
keyboards. Automatic mouse conversion means it works with all PS/2,
IntelliMouse, and RS-232 mice. You can even mix both styles in one
installation. Sun compatibility is available using EHN428 for USB and
EHN429 for legacy support.
For connecting remotely to your server room over IP, add the
ServSwitch Wizard IP (ACR2004A) (see Related Products) to control
PC, Sun, and Mac servers.
Keep an eye on your servers.
Monitor all connected servers with Autoscan. You can also scan
only active servers attached to one chassis or selected servers attached
to any chassis in your system. Program your preferred scan rate and
view each server at your own pace.
