Description
- For server connections, the adapter has built-in VGA video and USB keyboard/mouse connectors. On the laptop side, it features a high-speed (480-Mbps) USB Mini Type B connector with a detachable USB cable for server-to-laptop links. For older PS/2 style keyboards (the adapter doesn’t support PS/2 mice), there’s a passive PS/2 to USB adapter included.
- The fully hot-pluggable adapter requires no external power (it gets it all from the connected system or laptop) making it truly portable and easy to use.
Versatile video scaling options:
- There’s no need to load any drivers or software on the server—all the software goes on your laptop.
- And it’s no ordinary terminal emulation software. The adapter’s software gives you real-time video scaling so you can always see the entire screen, even on small laptop displays. Enlarge the window to use all pixels of your laptop (with or without the laptop taskbar seen), or shrink to view another application next to it. Video adjustments also include sample phase sharpening and video noise filtering.
- What’s more, upon rebooting the connected system, the software interface gives you command line interface and BIOS-level visibility from start to finish.
- You can even take screen snapshots (as PNG or JPEG files) for system analysis later.
Possible applications:
- Performing maintenance in server rooms without a lot of space, where you can’t fit a crash cart or install a KVM console tray in the rack or cabinet.
- Classrooms where the server or CPUs are stored in the back of the room and you need quick access to diagnose a problem while students are actively working at their computers.
- Troubleshooting ATMs, kiosks, and retail PoS/PoP systems in stores and other areas heavily trafficked by the public.
- Configuring digital signage in real time at the screen, away from the controlling PC (just plug the adapter into the player).
- Any field application where you need to interact with target computers.
