An easy-to-navigate graphical user interface makes for convenient,
intuitive configuration and operation. Web-based Windows and
Java implementations allow the remote equipment to be controlled
from industry-standard web browsers. Windows and Java AP client
software – using the same, convenient, GUI – are also included to
provide access where a browser environment is not desired.
1. A built-in single-port power switch allows remote power
management of a server/installation connected locally to the
KN1000A.
2. In addition, you can also add a PON (Power Over the NET™)
power management unit and remotely control the power status of
devices on your installation, including monitoring their current
status, as well as turning servers On, Off and Rebooting them.
With its enhanced FPS throughput for crisp responsive video
display, the KN1000A offers resolutions of up to 1920 x 1200 @
60Hz and vibrant 24-bit color depth for rich remote session display.
The remote desktop can appear full-screen, or in a window. In full-
screen mode the remote desktop display scales to the user's
monitor display size.
USB 1.1 and 2.0 devices (floppy drives, CDROMs, flash drives,
etc.), folders, and image files on a user's local system, appear and
act as if they were installed on the remote server, for ease and
convenience when performing software installation and system
updates across the entire installation.
