NTI RACKMUX KVM Drawer with NODEMUX Switch
1
INTRODUCTION
The RACKMUX-V15-8UNV (RACKMUX) is a KVM Drawer with Universal KVM Switch that combines a rackmount 15" TFT/ LCD
monitor, keyboard, touchpad mouse, an 8-port Universal KVM switch (NODEMUX) in a space-saving 1RU industrial strength
drawer with wrist pads. The RACKMUX is equipped with a built-in switch function, which allows control of up to eight (8)
Windows or SUN-enabled CPUs with a single keyboard, touchpad and monitor. When access to a server rack is needed, the
drawer can be pulled out and the display lifted up like a notebook computer, revealing the keyboard and touchpad. When the
drawer is not in use, the display can be folded forward and down so the 1RU drawer can be pushed into the cabinet easily and
smoothly, helping to organize and streamline busy server rooms.
The onboard Universal KVM switch allows access to any Windows or SUN legacy CPUs from one monitor, keyboard and mouse
(up to 8 CPUs). These CPUs can be file servers, network managers, etc. Internal microprocessor circuitry allows all CPUs to be
booted simultaneously without keyboard error. Port selection is accomplished through On Screen Display (OSD) menus provided
for switch control and security administration.
