FUNKCJONALNOŚĆ
The PRIMUX® KVM Matrix Switch via CAT5 provides non-blocking access for up to 16 simultaneous users to up to 64 servers. The switch frees up valuable space by eliminating large KVM switchboxes and bulky hard-to-manage coax cables.

The PRIMUX system consists of three components: Matrix Switch, connects users to servers; Host Adapters, connect to each server; and User Stations, connect to each set of user-station equipment – keyboard, monitor and mouse. The User Stations and Host Adapters can be located as far as 1,000 feet (300 m) from each other, and are connected to the matrix switch via CAT5/5e/6 UTP cable.

Use the optional PRIMUX-RDSW Redundancy Switch to instantaneously switch over all user stations and host adapter connections to a back-up Matrix Switch if the main unit fails. The position of a rocker switch on PRIMUX-RDSW determines which PRIMUX Matrix Switch is used.

• Multi-user, multi-platform, multi-rack access. 
• Platform-specific host adapters for host connection – PS/2, USB, SUN, Serial. 
• Simple plug-and-play auto-configured installation. 
• Servers are discovered as they are powered up, and can be accessed immediately by authorized users 
• Hot-swap components with no disruption of server operation. 
• Supports video resolutions to 1920x1440. 
• Automatically adjusts the video quality to compensate for varying lengths of CAT5/5e/6 cable. 
• Dedicated microprocessors prevent CPUs from locking up. 
• Real time power status of connected servers. 
• Command and control provided by OSD of connected User Station.
• Flash upgradeable. 
• Optional PRIMUX Redundancy Switch quickly switches control of User Stations and Servers to a back-up PRIMUX Matrix Switch. 
• Dual redundant power for reliability. 
• Supports PRIMUX-8X32, PRIMUX-16X64, and all connected PRIMUX-UZR User Stations and Servers. 
• Ideal for broadcasting applications where downtime is measured in seconds.

Control Methods
On Screen Display

• Use keyboard or mouse to operate the switch from menus superimposed onto the monitor. 
• Displays the platform, name, and power status of the connected servers. 
• Allows color skew and video compensation fine tuning for optimal video quality. 
• Locate and select servers by name. 
• Names can be up to 16 characters long. 
• Help Screens assist users with OSD. 
• Modify the size and position of the OSD. 
• OS- and software-independent. 
• Various administrator configuration features, including users, servers and user stations. 
• Security 
• Administrator can enable or disable all security features and select which servers each user can access. 
• Add or remove authorized users. 
• Set individual user names and passwords for each user.

Modes of Operation

• Normal – a user connected to a host. 
• Scan – user is subsequently connected to hosts from a list.
• Sharing – the administrator can select for each host a sharing attribute, which defines multiple user access to the host. 
• None (not shared) – one user is connected to the host and controls it. No other user may select nor control that host. 
• Limited (video shared) – one user is connected to and controls the host. Other users may select and see the video output from the host, but not control the host. 
• Full (shared) – a host may be selected by many users; the host is still controlled by one user, but its control may be given to any other user after an inactivity timeout (share idle time).

RS232

• Configuration can be done through the serial port. 
• Baud rate: 115200.

Ethernet Control

• Configuration can be done over the Internet via Telnet. 
• 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface.
