      Seamless Access and Sharing System

      The Vertiv Avocent HMX IP KVM System (5000-6000 series) is a high performance KVM extender that provides access to system computers via a CATx network, allowing users the ability to access and share computing resources. It is ideal for demanding applications that require high resolution and zero latency such as in broadcasting, sports venues, pre- and post-production editing, control rooms and collaborative environments. An IP-based KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) extender, it allows critical computing hardware to be housed remotely from the user workstation in a secure, temperature-controlled environment. It is designed to improve productivity, reduce IT costs and produce better business results. This KVM system provides powerful administrative tools and connection-management control for the network resources without compromising quality. 

      • Security via TLS certificate-based encryption 
      • Local area network (LAN) operation with unlimited extension distances; no need for dedicated cabling between user and computer  
      • Onscreen (OSD) display at each user station; remote OSD allows video to be pushed and controlled at another station or video wall  
      • System backups stored internally, externally or via email
      • Updates may be scheduled hourly, daily or weekly

      Broadcast and Video Production

      These IP KVM systems facilitate the creating and editing high-quality broadcast and professional video productions by providing uncompromised video quality or control. The HMX 5000/6000 KVMs offer one or two video DVI video connections in resolutions of 1920 x 2000 or 2560 x 1600. They can support a variety of single-link and dual-link video resolutions, convert video to analog and scale in single port increments by simply adding a transmitter or receiver.

      Speed, Security and Control

      Ideal for security centers, control rooms, labs, workstation extensions and environments that require high level of redundancy. Centralized management from a single point ensures security with user administration and verification functions. They offer quick access to multiple devices from a single access point, provide fast switching time and include hotkey capabilities. With IP technology, they also allow workstations to be in a remote yet secure climate controlled environment.

      Remote Access Management

      The Vertiv Avocent HMX IP KVM Systems can benefit environments where the distance between the user and the computer cannot be limited, such as campuses, arenas or stadiums. These high performance KVM systems make it easy for cooperative sharing of computers while updating and multicasting video and key information to any receiver destination. Any screen application that requires rapid updating can easily be managed through the matrix system by authorized, verified users.
