The KN2116 is a sixteen port over- the- net KVM allowing a three users to simultaneous log on and independently control computers on three separate ports. Network control can be from any workstation on your LAN or WAN, or from the Internet.

The KN2116 can be cascaded to a maximum of 128 compatible KVM switches [ see the KVM compatibility list] allowing control for up to 1024 computers.

To allow  for ease of installation and compact 1U rack mounting, the KN2116 uses a high density  configuration  consisting of  standard RJ45 connectors and CAT5 cables

Connecting to PS/2, USB, Sun Legacy, Sun USB, or Serial devices is merely a matter of selecting the correct CPU adapter (see the accessories list for available selections).

ATEN's  proprietary video technology allows  servers to be placed up to 120 feet away from the KN2108 and still maintain  video resolution  up to 1280 x 1024 @ 60Hz  eliminating the need for KVM extenders.

Combining the KN2116 with Aten's Power Distribution Unit (PN0116 / PN0116), the KN2108 allows administrators not only to manage, but also shut down and reboot their systems from any location world wide 

Your choice of two functionally identical client applications will allow your work station to communicate with the KVM , one is a universal Java client that will work with any Java enabled OS,  or if you prefer, a Windows only client (the work station must be a Windows OS).  Because the KVM intercepts and interprets  the keyboard and mouse signals the KVM will work with practically any operating system installed on your servers.

Server selection can be accomplished in one of four methods [either locally or remotely]
1- Hot key - Keyboard sequence to directly access a port
2- On Screen Display (OSD)  - Menu interface
3- Scan   - Stop on the desired port
4- Direct "Go to" from the Panel array mode [Panel Array mode displays up to eight serverssimultaneously in one display window] clicking on the desired Panel takes you to that server

The unit is  password protected using a three level log on: multi-administrator; multi-user; multi-viewer. Ports denied access to a particular user are not displayed in the OSD or Panel Array modes.  Advanced security and encryption technologies include 1024 bit RSA; 56 bit DES; 256 bit AES; 128 bit SSL, and RADIUS Support
