RARITAN Unveils Industry

(SANEPR.com) June 10, 2009 -- MEDIA RELEASE PR34968 Raritan Introduces Industry's First 8-user 64-Port Digital KVM Switch that Supports More Users and More Servers at One Time SOMERSET, N.J., June 9 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ - Expanded Dominion KX II portfolio with 8 remote users with 32/64 server ports helps diverse IT infrastructures improve productivity through remote and at-the-rack server access - Raritan today expanded its award-winning Dominion(R) KX II portfolio with the introduction of two enterprise-class KVM-over-IP switches that support eight concurrent remote users, and offer new productivity features to help IT administrators in accessing and managing data center servers.

Designed for customers requiring server access from anywhere, the new Dominion KX2-864 and KX2-832 switches enable multiple IT administrators -- eight remote and two local users -- to access up to 64 and 32 servers, respectively. Raritan is the only company that offers 64-port digital KVM switches.

The KX II provides BIOS-level access, so that all servers, including blades, are always accessible -- even if a server's operating system is not working. The KX II also enables remote installation of software, file transfers, data backup and diagnostics with its Universal Virtual Media feature, and can control power to servers with optional remote power strips such as Raritan's intelligent power strips Dominion PX series.

Raritan's new Extended Local Port feature, which is available on the KX2-864 and KX2-832 switches, helps increase productivity by extending the local port to another system or spot in the data center, or to a Raritan Paragon(R) II switch for consolidated access. The new feature, for example, can provide extended access in a control room or NOC or extend access to an area adjacent to a data center.
