Avocent HMX Manager - network management device

The Avocent HMX manager provides centralized management and control of HMX computer interface modules and desktop user stations allowing them to serve as endpoints of a high performance LAN-based KVM switch. This solution provides with uncompromised switched KVM access to business critical systems.

Based on Gigabit Ethernet and highly optimized extension technology, the Avocent HMX system provides the image quality and responsiveness associated with distance-limited analog KVM switches and the unlimited distance benefits previously only available through less responsive KVM over IP switches. In addition to near lossless video and snappy mouse response, these third-generation network-based products deliver CD quality audio and seamless extension of USB mass storage devices.
