Black Box ServSwitch Agility IP-Based KVM Extender - DVI, USB, Dual-Head Transmitter - video/audio/USB/serial extender …

The Agility Extender enables high-performance, real-time extensions of DVI video, audio, USB HID, USB 2.0, RS-232 over a Gigabit network This enables you to locate your critical computing hardware in a secure and temperature controlled environment away from the user work station, whilst maintaining a pixel perfect desktop experience.

Key Points

• Delivers perfect digital video with no loss
• Maximum resolution is 1920x1080
• No-loss compression minimizes bandwidth use while maximizing the user experience
• Scalable high performance IP-Based KVM Extender and KVM Matrix system
• Magic Eye support to handle dithered video graphics
• Supports a second LAN port to switch signals together (Teaming Mode), which increases bandwidth
• Data cyncryption via 128-bit AES

Product Features

• Flexible choice of link media
  Use the CATx interface for extensions up to 100 meters. If you need to extend further, simply add a 1GbE network device to achieve an additional 100 meters. This can be repeated many times for unlimited distances within the LAN.
  You may also fit the SFP-port with a multimode SFP and cable for distances up to 500m, or a single-mode SFP and cable for distances as great as 10.000 m.
• Teaming for redundancy and link aggregation
  The Agility Extender units support Teaming (two MAC addresses per unit) allowing two independent 1GB Ethernet links. Establish one link through the CATx link and the second link using the SFO-Port with an appropriate SFP transceiver. The units are able to detect whether the network is in operation and can automatically change to its second network port if a failure is detected. That way, mission- critical computer/user connections can be setup with full redundancy - ideal for process automation, control rooms, or broadcast play out, and operations. Or use the second link for bandwidth aggregation to provide a high 2GB through put. With load-balanced video, 60fps on a single 1920 x 1200/1080p or RGB4:4: 4 screen can be maintained even when every pixel is moving.
• USB 2.0
  The Agility Extender supports a wide range of USB devices from mice and keyboards through to graphics tablets, jog shuttles, joysticks and 3D explorers, alongside mass storage devices. For applications where security is of high importance, the system has even the ability to disable the use of non-HID devices, meaning there is no need to physically block USB ports to prevent the use of mass storage devices.
• Out-of-band remote access
  The agility dual VNC (ACR1012) offers an additional RJ-45 management port for remote access down to the BIOS-level over VNC or Java for system control and immediate disaster recovery. The ability of controlling the system out-of-band cuts down potential downtime due to quicker service capabilities on one hand and on the other hand reduces cost for servicing deployed PCs/Workstations from a central location and without having service personnel on the road
• Easy migration into a matrix setup
  The Agility Extenders are part of the Agility matrix switching solution. Simply connect further computers and users via the extender units and control them through the IPATH controller. iPATH is a management server which transforms the Agility Extender units into a digital matrix switching solution. Connected over Ethernet switches it is possible to route any user station to any computer attached to the network without any compromises to HD video quality or control. It also allows co-operative sharing of computers and multicasting of video to any destination.
