Typical Application
Models
The UltraConsole KVM switch is available in several
models. They have fixed port configuration and plug-in
expansion cards. The UC1 model connects a user to 4, 8, or
16 computers; Adding additional units can expand the system
to as many as 1,000 computers.
Cables
Rose’s UltraCable streamlines cable connections to
UltraConsole, simplifying cable management and improving
system reliability. Order the computer or user cables by the
computer’s connector style and desired length.
Installation
UltraConsole is easy to install. You simply
connect your computers and a KVM to the UltraConsole
ports. Configure each switch’s address and connect the
switches together with the expansion cables. Access the on-
screen menu with a simple keystroke, configure settings such
as CPU names and security, and save it in flash memory.
Operation
Tailor UltraConsole by configuring the level of
security that you desire. You can auto-assign security settings
to a console station or require users to log into the switch
with a user ID and password. The user profile grants access
rights to designated computers and controls other
characteristics. Use simple keyboard commands to access
computers and view system status. Helpful screen messages
indicate the status of all connections. To allow maximum
versatility, users can connect in four different modes: view,
share, control, and private.
On-screen display
UltraConsole excels with its on-screen
menu system. The intuitive interface uses pop-up menus to
make selections. User-friendly help lines are shown for each
item. The interface can be programmed for English, French,
German, Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese. You can easily
configure CPU names, security, appearance, and many other
features.
Serial devices
The UltraConsole’s OSD is so powerful that it is
actually a color VT220 terminal emulator. You can configure any
computer port to be serial. When you connect to a serial device,
you get a 24x80 screen with two status lines. You can access the
serial device just as if you were connected with a terminal. Linux
serial ports will show directory lists in color.
Flash Memory
To support the latest devices, UltraConsole
contains flash memory. We provide free, lifetime firmware
upgrades, available from www.rose.com.
Keyboard and Mouse
UltraConsole fully emulates the
keyboard and mouse. It works on all major operating systems
such as Windows, Solaris, Linux, UNIX, SGI, and OSX. Use
any combination of PS/2, USB, and Sun including PS/2 wheel
and serial mice. USB (PC, Apple, and Sun) and serial mouse
are for the computer side only, not on the KVM side. It is
compatible with European and Asian keyboard languages
.
