Overview

The KN2116VA / KN4116VA / KN1132V / KN2132VA / KN4132VA /
KN8132V / KN4164V / KN8164V switches are IP-based KVM control units
that allow both local and remote operators to monitor and access multiple
servers from a single console. The KN8 Series series can control up to 16/32/
64 servers, and by cascading compatible KVM switches, as many as 512
servers can be controlled on a complete two stage installation. The KN8 Series
of KVM over IP switches provide superior video quality with resolutions up to
1920 x 1200, faster virtual media transmission speeds for accessing USB drives
and support of IPS 140-2 level 1 security standards.
The KN8 Series of switches are differentiated according to the number of buses
they support and the number of KVM ports they provide – as shown below:

Each bus permits a separate user session so that up to 3 (1 Local; 1 or 2
Remote), 5 (1 Local; 4 Remote) or 9 (1 Local; 8 Remote) concurrent
independent connections to the attached servers can take place. The diagram
