KN2116VB KVM over IP switch provides local console and remote over IP access for users to monitor and access their entire data center over a network.

KN2116VB offers superior Full-HD video resolution up to 1920x1200, virtual media transmissions at double speed, FIPS 140-2 with level 1 security standards by using an embedded FIPS 140-2 certified OpenSSL cryptographic module.

Equipped with dual on-board NICs, KN2116VB is built to ensure reliability and availability of remote access to all servers.

KN2116VB can be remotely accessed via WinClient / JavaClient* at a console from a separated location for management and operation. ATEN also provides an iOS app - PadClient, whose intuitive interface makes it easy to connect to the KVM over IP switch and control computers direct from user's iPad.

This KVM switch provides out-of-band access with external modem support for BIOS-level troubleshooting when the network is down. It enables IT administrators to manage network devices (e.g. server, storage, router, and switch) in server rooms via management networks that are separate from the main / production networks. If there's difficulty in accessing the network devices through the production network, the administrators can still access them via the KVM switch.

The KVM switch offers several out-of-band access methods, such as a direct console connection from a local computer, a USB console connection from a laptop, a PSTN connection via modem, or a dedicated management network connection via the Ethernet (LAN) port.

KN2116VB can be integrated into ATEN's CC2000 Centralized Management Software. CC2000 delivers a better user experience and advanced usability. By utilizing consolidated data, task-based navigation, and simplified menus, administrators can access, configure, and manage all of the IT equipments with ease.

KN2116VB is compatible with ATEN's KVM over IP Console Station - KA82 series. KA82 series is a standalone console that replaces PC or NB, enabling users to remotely access, monitor and control all servers connected to multiple ATEN's KN2116VB with impenetrable security against virus threats. It is especially suitable for environments where a PC is not allowed. In addition, KN2116VB works with ATEN's PDU remote power management systems from the KVM over IP switches' user interface.

Additional exclusive features of KN2116VB include Message Board, Panel Array Mode, Mouse DynaSync™, and the adapter ID.

ATEN KVM over IP switches save user's time and money by allowing administrators to manage their data centers from practically anywhere - minimizing travel and MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) costs, ensuring the highest availability for data center services.
