Introduction
Overview
The CN-6000 is a control unit that allows operators to monitor and access
their computers from remote locations using a standard Internet browser or
Windows-based application programs. The CN-6000 connects to the Internet,
an Intranet, LAN, or WAN using industry standard Category 5 cable, then
uses a KVM cable to connect to a local KVM switch or server.
Because the CN-6000 uses TCP/IP for its communications protocol, the
server or KVM switch it is connected to can be accessed from any computer
on the Net - whether that computer is located down the hall, down the street,
or half-way around the world.
Operators at remote locations connect to the CN-6000 via its IP address.
Once a connection has been established and authorization granted, the remote
computer can exchange keyboard, video and mouse signals with the server
(or servers on a KVM switch installation), just as if they were physically
present and working on the equipment directly.
