Product Overview
Features and Benefits
The AutoView
®
1400/1500/2000 switches integrate Avocent field-proven analog keyboard, video
and mouse (KVM) switching technology with advanced cable management, flexible access for two
simultaneous users 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.
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 2000 switch has 16 Avocent Rack Interface (ARI) ports for connecting AVRIQ
modules. AutoView 1400 and 1500 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.
Two-User Share Mode
The AutoView
1400/1500/2000 switches feature a Share Mode function that allows two users to
gain access to a primary server. The user configurable time-out feature allows you to determine the
amount of time (up to 600 seconds) for the target to remain idle before the other user can take
control of the target.
