KVM Switches

Keyboard, Video and Mouse (KVM) switches enable users to access and control multiple Servers or PC's from 1 or more keyboard, monitor and mouse. KVM Switches offer a number of benefits such as:

Save Space
By removing the need for monitors and mice in your rackmount cabinets. Up to 10,000 servers can be accessed from a single workstation.

Save Money
You need less equipment to access your servers when you use a KVM switch. Less equipment also means less money spent on power, less space used and less time to administer servers.

Save Time
KVM solutions provide direct connect real time access to the BIOS level of the Servers up to 300m away (10Km over fibre, or from anywhere in the world if using an IP solution) so administrators can access and control servers from their desk top without having to visit the data centre.

Prevent Downtime
Server downtime is costly. A KVM Solution can help reduce downtime by allowing you to access, diagnose and manage servers as soon as there's a problem. Additionally the ability to do this remotely means you spend more time solving the problem and less time getting to it.

Rackmount Monitors

Rackmount Monitors give you the ability to control servers at the rack, as well as save space over a traditional keyboard, monitor and mouse. To access your servers, just slide out the Rackmount Monitor drawer and flip it open, you will then be able to view and access your server menus via a high resolution TFT LCD display and high-quality trackball or touchpad.

Rackmount Monitors can also be ordered with an optional 8 or 16 Port KVM Switch, giving you additional space saving and functionality benefits.

Remote Power Management

As well as standard PDUs, KVM Partnership can also supply a range of remote power management products designed to help you maximise the performance of your data centre equipment and prevent expensive equipment downtime. Effective Power Management is vital in large data-centre installations where tens or even hundreds of rackmount cabinets are located and installed with servers or other data-centre equipment.

Remote Power Management equipment gives you the ability to control the power functions (off/on or Reboot) of a locked-up rackmount device. If this device is connected to a KVM or Console Port Switch the locked-up device can be accessed via a network, thus giving administrators the ability to cycle and monitor power without visiting the datacentre, saving time and money and helping to reduce downtime.

Additionally we have a range of remote power management products that offer power monitoring functionality, enabling you to check and report on power usage and monitor equipment temperature & environmental performance.
