DS1800 KVM Switch



Designed for demanding IT environments, Avocent's DS Series offers superior digital KVM switching for multi-platform, multi-location, multi-device access and control. This proven 8-port switch in the DS Series simplifies access and control with a Windows application called DSView. With DSView, you can access all of your data center devices from a single screen.

DS1800 is a digital KVM switching solution that provides administrators complete access to an unlimited number or servers or devices in their network, from any location.

This 8-port appliance leverages existing networking infrastructure to transmit KVM signals over TCP/IP. DS1800 features unlimited scalability and advanced security features.

With Avocent's exclusive KVM OVER IP technology, DS1800 is the most proven solution for accessing and controlling any server, from any location.

With DSView, you can access all of your data center devices from a single screen, making complex network access and control remarkably easier. For added user security, Avocent's DSAuth user authentication software stores permissions, topology and per-device contact information for the DS Series. It also performs third party authentication during connection to the switch.

Note: DSView and DSAuth are sold separately. See ordering details for more information.
 

ADVANCED AUTHENTICATION AND SECURITY FEATURES
Security is critical to any server installation. That's why the DS1800 relies on an Authentication service to determine user access rights and establish communication between users and DS1800 units. Simply describe the configuration of computers and switches attached to the DS1800, then determine which computers a user or group of users can manipulate. User names and groups come directly from the Windows NT administration tools, eliminating the need for redundant management systems.
