PRIMUX KVM Matrix switch

Click2Contact

The PRIMUX KVM Matrix switch provides non-blocking access for up to 16 simultaneous users to up to 64 servers. The switch frees up space by eliminating large KVM switchboxes and replacing bulky, hard-to-manage coax cables with inexpensive network cabling.

The system consists of three components: a Matrix switch that connects users to servers; host adapters that connect each server to the Matrix switch and user stations that connect user-station equipment (keyboard, monitor and mouse) to the switch. Host adapters are available for PS/2, USB, SUN workstations and serial console ports, allowing the system to be connected to any server platform.

The user stations and host adapters can be located as far as 300 m from each other and are connected to the matrix switch via CAT5/5e/6 UTP cable. The system supports video resolutions up to 1920x1440 and automatically adjusts the video quality for varying cable lengths.

If high availability is an essential requirement, the optional PRIMUX-RDSW redundancy switch can be used to instantaneously switch over all user stations and host adapter connections to a back-up Matrix switch if the main unit fails.
