Java implementations allow the remote equipment to be controlled
from a standard web browser. Windows and Java AP client
software – using the same convenient GUI are also included to
provide access where a browser environment is not desired.
With its enhanced fps throughput for crisp responsive video display,
the CN8000A offers resolutions of up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz;
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 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.
Note: Virtual Media only works with 2L-5301UP (1.2m), 2L-5302UP
(1.8m), 2L-5201U (1.2m), and 2L-5202U (1.8m) KVM cables.

A mini USB port in the front panel serves as a Laptop USB Console
(LUC) port allowing a laptop to be used as a console for remote
access.
To meet advanced security requirements, the CN8000A's Virtual
Media function allows a Smart Card / CAC reader on a user's local
system to be mapped to a remote server.
Bandwidth optimization via grayscaling and video quality settings
allow maximum data throughput in low bandwidth situations. PPP
modem dial-up support ensures reliable connectivity for out-of-
band, and low bandwidth situations.
