room. Perhaps all of your

computers are IBM

bles; maybe some of them are

SGI™, RS/6000

boxes.

You have a desire to manage all

the computers with just two or

four keyboard, monitor, and

mouse control stations.

A Matrix ServSwitch™ is what

you need. Some models support

IBM PS/2

and PC/AT

only, while

others support IBM PS/2, PC/AT,

RS/6000, SGI, and Sun CPUs;

many keyboard and mouse

protocols; and VGA, SVGA, XGA,

RS/6000, and SGI video—up to

1600 x 1280 resolution! With extra

adapters, you can also attach

Mac

computers to the Matrix.

Key Features

MATRIX SERVSWITCH

such switches. In either case, you

can attach two control stations;

up to four control stations can be

connected, but they’ll have to

contend for access.

Each Matrix has two or four

user ports (KVM 1 and 2 or KVM 1,

2, 3, and 4) and either 4, 8, or 16

CPU ports. The Matrix can also

accommodate an Expansion

Module (SW740C-R3-B), which

can be ordered separately. With

Expansion Modules installed, you

can daisychain Matrix chassis to

reach larger or more widely

separated groups of CPUs.

The Multiplatform

ServSwitches with serial support

have an RJ-12, 6-conductor,

RS-232 serial port for each

installed system CPU card. This

connector provides a serial

interface to the ServSwitch from a

computer terminal, a standalone

computer, or a notebook

computer that is not connected to

any CPU port.

Via the RS-232 serial port, you

can upgrade the system firmware,

restore the unit to its factory-

default settings, configure an

expansion switch, or switch any

KVM station to any CPU port. An

adapter and serial cable are

provided for the serial interface.

You also won’t have to worry

about unauthorized people using

or seeing what they shouldn’t. You

can assign users and computers

to password-protected access

groups. Computers can belong to

multiple groups, but users can

belong to only one. Users will only

be able to access computers in

their group, and you define the

level of access they’ll have.
