You've got a rack full of servers and a KVM over IP switch doing its job. But that old laptop you keep logging in from? It's running Java, it's slow, and every time IT patches the OS you lose access for an hour. The KA8270 kills that problem.
It's a standalone console. No PC. No notebook. No browser. Plug your keyboard, mouse, and monitor into the back of the rack and you've got direct access to every server behind your KN series switch. Full HD at 1920 × 1200, driven by an FPGA graphics processor, so the image is clean and the latency is low.
Panel Array Mode lets you tile up to 64 server video feeds on one screen. Walk past the rack, glance at the wall, and you know which box is throwing errors before someone calls you in.
The 0U form factor mounts on the rear of your rack. No shelf space eaten, no extra cable runs across the top. Metal housing, 0.75 kg, 17.42 × 15.54 × 2.88 cm. Operates from 0 to 40 °C, so it's happy in a server room that runs a bit warm after the afternoon sun hits the window.
