The CN8600 DVI KVM over IP is a cost efficient over-IP device, which allows remote access of digital video, audio & virtual media via remote control of a PC or workstation. The CN8600 enables Over IP capability by connecting compatible ATEN DVI KVM switch & / or LCD console, such as the CS1768 (8-Port USB (Universal Serial Bus) DVI KVM Switch) or CL6700 (DVI LCD Console). For user-friendly operation, a mini USB (Universal Serial Bus) port on the rear panel is designed as a Laptop USB (Universal Serial Bus) Console (LUC) port or a Virtual Media port. No additional monitor, keyboard or mouse is required locally for routine maintenance – simply use the LUC port to connect a laptop, & access any computer connected to the switch for easy on-site management. The CN8600’s Virtual Media function allows a user to perform diagnostic testing, file transfers, or apply OS / applications updates & patches from a remote console. To ensure seamless connectivity, the CN8600 is equipped with dual LAN/dual power functionality to keep operation in the server room smooth & efficient. The CN8600 also supports speaker & microphone for use locally & remotely.
