Small-Medium Business/Server Room | IP Access Technology
Combine the advantages and benefits of remote
access software and extension technology.
By Black Box Media Services
IP access technology extends keyboard,
video, and mouse (KVM) signals, digital
video, digital audio, and USB peripherals
from any computer or server over TCP/IP
via a local area network (LAN), wide-area
network (WAN), or Internet connection.
This technology uses existing network
infrastructure and supports local and
remote users, usually simultaneously.
IP access technology works in diverse
hardware environments and is ideal for
managing multilocation data centers
and branch offices.
These capabilities translate into real
savings for companies having to deal
with the proliferation of servers in many
offices, particularly for corporations and
government agencies required to deliver
24/7 uptime and real-time access to
mission-critical servers every day of
the year.
IP access and KVM-over-IP (KVMoIP)
solutions combine the advantages of
remote access software with the benefits
of switching and extension technology.
Like most KVM switches, IP access
products don’t require any software to
be loaded on the host computers. They
interface directly with the keyboard,
monitor, and mouse connectors of the
host computer or KVM switch. Circuitry
within the KVMoIP device digitizes the
incoming video signal and processes it
into digital data that is communicated
to a viewer program running on a remote
client computer over a LAN/WAN or the
public Internet.
By addressing network issues from a
remote locaion, you can simply manage
issues from your desk, even save yourself
the hassle of traveling to a site in the
middle of the night. Use a browser-based
connection, even a smartphone or tablet
computer or PDA, to reboot or administer
a roomful of servers remotely — a real
convenience.
IP access solutions that feature virtual
media technology take that convenience
further. They enable a remote user to
effortlessly move files from a mass storage
device — a USB flash drive for example —
from your location to the computer on
which you’re working. Cost savings are
realized through reduced downtime and
less travel. Plus, in some cases, there’s no
need to replace existing KVM switches
with proprietary ones to get a KVMoIP
server-control solution.
Black Box IP access solutions enable you
to access remote servers at the BIOS level,
which is important when you need to
troubleshoot from off site, and don’t want
to dispatch a technician. Install or recover
software applications and install OS
patches from your location anywhere in
the world. Plus, this BIOS-level control is
possible regardless of the server’s brand
or model and even works if the operating
system is down.
