The ATEN KN Series 32-Port KVM IP Switch Dual Power LANfrom ATEN KN Series 32-Port KVM IP Switch Dual Power LANsupports HD resolution video, FIPS 140-2 with level 1 security standards, and virtual media transmissions at twice the speed. The KN series provides local console and remote over IP access for users to monitor and access their entire data center over a network. In addition, it offers out-of-band access with external modem support for BIOS level troubleshooting when the network is down.

With dual on-board NICs and dual power supplies, the KN series are built for reliability, to ensure 24/7 availability of remote access to all servers. KN2116VA can be integrated into the CC2000 Management Software. The CC2000 puts administrators in complete control of remote data centers and branch offices, allowing IT administrators to remotely monitor and control all devices on a network, including blade servers and virtual machines. To help you manage and control an entire data center, ATEN KVM over IP switches support blade servers and chassis.

Thanks to Power Association feature, KVM ports can be associated with ATEN PDU power outlets for power management of servers from the KVM over IP switches' user interface. Additional, the KVM features a message board, Panel Array Mode, Mouse DynaSync, and the Adapter ID.

Q: 10. when a pc is connected through this switch, during boot are the motherboard bios screens, shown in the monitor? that is the post report, or the boor menu if called for , the bios itself if called for.............I just returned a Tripp Lite 4 port display port switch that would not display any video until the windows welcome screen which is when the windows video drivers take over...... A switch that will not display the motherboard bios...has no value...Tech support had no comment...these PC worked perfectly with a StarTach switch...so no issue with the PCs

A: Yes, this switch should do the trick. I use this switch for my work laptop, which uses disk encryption and won't boot windows until a password is entered. I also have my desktop machine connected to the switch and see the BIOS splash screen and on occasion I've interrupted the boot process via keyboard (connected to the switch) to modify the BIOS setting. I hope this info helps.
