AMX5000, AMX5010, AMX5020, AMX5030, AMIQ & AMWorks
Built on the Avocent superior analogue switching technology, the AMX5000,
AMX5010, AMX5020 and AMX5030 matrix switches simplify management in evolving
server installations.
This solution has a highly scalable architecture that easily
accommodates additional servers and users in growing network infrastructures.
These matrix switches provide access from a single point or simultaneous access for
up to 16 users throughout the data centre.
The AMIQ enhanced CAT 5 server interface module is the best choice for flexibility
and performance in complex IT environments. Our CAT 5 design and video technology
eliminates bulky cabling connections and delivers real-time, high bandwidth video for
KVM switching up to 300 metres away from the server. The AMIQ module has built-
in memory that eases configuration by assigning and retaining unique server
identification codes for
each attached server. This cable intelligence enhances security
and prevents
unauthorised access to a server through cable manipulation.
The AMX switch features our patented OSCAR
®
graphical user interface, which lets
you conveniently switch between connected devices. If you require centralised
administration of the AMX switch, AMWorks
®
software is included free with each
switch. AMWorks software supports customised user profiles and multi-level security.
AMWorks software allows you to build a user database with assigned access and
password protection for each server.
You can view all activities that take place on the KVM system, including user login,
switches made to servers and changes made to the system connections or setup.
The database is centrally stored and can be downloaded to the switch via the
network connection port available on all AMX5000, AMX5010, AMX5020 and
AMX5030 switches.
Smart cabling has
built-in memory to run
server ID codes.
