Do You Measure Up?
If uptime is a key metric for your IT organization, we can help you keep your promises.
With a Tripp Lite KVM or console server, even the most remote server or switch on your corporate network is instantly within reach so server lock-ups, performance degradation, and power outages can be rectified. IP connectivity extends the reach of IT staff beyond the physical confines of the data center, increasing productivity and allowing problems to be quickly addressed.
Choose the type of KVM you need from the list below. If you would like help finding the right KVM, let our KVM Selector guide you.
Direct-Connect KVM Switches
As the name implies, Direct-Connect KVMs (also called Analog KVMs) connect directly to the equipment being controlled and do not rely on a network connection. This makes Direct-Connect KVMs fast, extremely secure, and able to operate when networks are down. They are also less expensive per port than their digital counterparts.
Network (IP) KVM Switches
Network (or Digital) KVMs transmit the video, keyboard and mouse actions to and from connected equipment over standard LAN or Internet connections. This allows network engineers to use existing network cabling and without distance limitations, a feature that multi-national organizations find especially beneficial.
Console Servers
Console Servers provide secure, in-band and out-of-band access to network devices including servers, UPS systems, PDUs, routers, switches and firewalls in remote, heterogeneous data centers and server rooms. In fact, any device with a DB9 or DB25 serial port can be remotely accessed and managed with these console servers.
