showing how the AMX5000 / AMX5100 work together for your Data
Center |
| Built on
Avocent's field-proven matrix switching design, the
AMX5000 is an 8x32 switch that
provides a powerful KVM solution with advanced manageability. The
AMX5000 highly scalable architecture easily accommodates additional
servers and users, which makes the AMX5000 particularly effective in
evolving installations with hundreds or even thousands of servers.
Avocent's
AMWorks software is included
free with the AMX5000 switch for central administration.
The next generation AMX5010 is a
16x64 analog matrix switching solution that provides unmatched
advancements in increased access and efficient scalability. The
powerful AMX5010 solution increases the number of users with
simultaneous access and provides access to all major server
platforms and serial devices. Avocent’s advanced AMWorks software is
also included with the AMX5010 switch for central administration. |
Avocent's
AMX5100 desktop user station
doubles as a monitor stand and provides access from the desk to the
switch. The AMX5100 connects to the user's multi-platform KVM
peripherals and sends the KVM signals over an industry standard CAT
5 cable to Avocent's AMX5000 matrix switch. Avocent's exclusive
AutoTuning technology allows the AMX5100 to automatically compensate
for varying cable types and lengths, including CAT 5, CAT 5e and CAT
6 and adjust for signal losses each time a switch is made to a
server. The AMX5100 user station works with patented OSCAR on-screen
interface. OSCAR uses multi-lingual, intuitive menus for Point and
Click system configuration and server selection.

AMWorks Software |
For centralized administration of the
AMX, an AMWorks license is
included with each AMX5000/5010 switch. The AMWorks Java-based system
administration tool supports customized user profiles and
multi-level security and allows system administrators to build a
user database with assigned access and password protection for each
server. Administrators 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 AMX5000 matrix switch
via the network connection port available on all AMX units |
