Features and Benefits
The AutoView
®
1415/1515/2015 switches integrate Avocent field-proven analog keyboard, video
and mouse (KVM) switching technology with advanced cable management, flexible access for two
simultaneous users, USB support and a patented, easy-to-use interface. This AutoView series of
KVM switches conveniently supports all major server platforms and features powerful on-screen
management for easy system configuration and server selection. The AutoView 1415/1515/2015
switches also feature user peripheral ports for PS/2 and USB keyboards and mice.
NOTE: With the exception of USB capability, all references to AutoView 1415/1515/2015 switches are applicable
to AutoView 1400/1500/2000 switches respectively.
AVRIQ Intelligent Module
A benefit of the AutoView switch is the AVRIQ intelligent module. The AVRIQ module with
CAT 5 design dramatically reduces cable clutter, while providing optimal resolution and video
settings. The built-in memory of the AVRIQ module simplifies configuration by assigning and
retaining unique server names and Electronic ID (EID) numbers for each attached server. The
AVRIQ module is powered directly from the server and provides Keep Alive functionality even if
the AutoView switch is not powered.
Each AutoView 2015 switch has 16 Avocent Rack Interface (ARI) ports for connecting AVRIQ
modules. AutoView 1415 and 1515 switches provide eight ARI ports. Utilizing an AVRIQ module,
you can attach additional switches to expand your AutoView switching system. This flexibility
allows you to add capacity as your data center grows.
Multiplatform support
The AVRIQ modules available with the AutoView switch support PS/2, Sun™, USB and serial
server environments. Using the OSCAR
®
graphical user interface in conjunction with these
modules allows you to switch easily across platforms.
