The ATEN KVM over IP Console Station (KA8270/KA8278/KA8280/ KA8288) is a standalone console that replaces PC or NB, enabling users to remotely access, monitor, and control all servers connected to multiple ATEN’s KVM over IP switches (please refer to the Compatible Products list on the website) with impenetrable security against virus threats. It also supports various types of data encryption for ensuring impervious data protection. The KVM over IP Console Station can be deployed to anywhere instant access and stringent security is required, and is ideal for applications such as studios, offices, data centers, broadcast stations, control rooms, and network operations centers (NOC).
KA8270, KA8278, KA8280, and KA8288 all support USB mouse/keyboard and two USB ports for Virtual Media function, and respectively support 1 VGA video output, 1 VGA plus 1 HDMI video outputs, 1 HDMI video output, and 2 HDMI video outputs at resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz. With KA8278 and KA8288, users can multitask across two displays with a single keyboard and mouse.
The KVM over IP Console Station is compatible with ATEN’s KN KVM over IP Switch series. The KN KVM over IP Switches series are IP-based KVM control units that allow both local and remote operators to monitor and access multiple servers from a single console (refer to ATEN’s website to get more information on the KVM over IP Switch).
In addition, the KVM over IP Console Station provides Panel Array Modeâ„¢ function, enabling administrators to monitor the video output of up to 64 servers simultaneously. The feature enables users to preview the contents of all desired ports at the same time, which is especially suitable for environments such as manufacturing and surveillance that often require monitoring of a much higher number of ports.
