Description:
P2-UMT1664M-EXD Raritan Paragon II Cat 5 Matrix Switch 16-user 64-port ( Paragon 2 ) *SPECIAL OFFER* (X-DEMO)

  • This UMT1664M unit is in perfect as new / un-used condition.
  • Ideal for an urgent replacement for any existing system. Simply set the firmware to your current setting and load your configuration, or we can help if you need assistance. Then your up and running again.
    Supplied with a six month gurantee, but the components are as new and we would expect them to last some years.
  • This unit previously had a list price of over $15,000

  • * Later when you are ready you can pre-plan your move to a new replacement system.



  • The Paragon system is now discontinued by Raritan.
    We can still supply some spare parts whilst our stocks last. However - why not replace.
    We can offer a similar solution using a Raritan Dominion KX3 and User station setup.
  • Contact us for details of a trade in and the most suitable recommended new solution.


    Proven Paragon Analog Technology with Stacking on selected models in range,
    Optional Integrated KVM-Over-IP Access available and Superior Management Capabilities

    Paragon II, the industry's best stackable Cat5 KVM (keyboard, video,
    mouse) solution, gives IT professionals the power to access and control
    servers and other network devices anytime, anywhere. With Paragon II,
    you can stack up to 128 ports per switch and add up to 10.000 ports via
    multi-dimensional expansion. Paragon II has superior KVM switch
    technology that dramatically reduces equipment costs and optimizes
    space utilization. What’s more, this generation of Paragon provides the
    highest levels of manageability, security, and superior video quality to
    simplify the management of business-critical data centers.

    Innovative Modular Architecture
    Paragon II distributes KVM switching and control functions across
    modular, intelligent components:

    Paragon II Main Switching Unit - A secure, intelligent, non-blocked
    control unit that connects users to servers. Its stackable architecture
    provides the industry's highest port density making it ideal for large
    data centers with densely packed racks.

    Paragon II Stacking Unit - A cost-effective, space-saving expansion
    unit that allows you to easily add up to 128 non-blocked ports per switch
    with 90% less cable than cascading. Stacking units are compatible with
    Paragon II models UMT832M and UMT1664M. These units:
  • Reduce the burden of multiple cables between tiers.

  • Reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by more than 30%.

  • Save one-third of rack space and HVAC resources.


    • New User Station - Designed to fit conveniently
    under the user's monitor, the Paragon II User
    Station includes an intuitive on-screen user interface
    (OSUI) for easy access to attached servers.
  • Connects to USB, Sun and PS/2.


    • New User Station with Integrated IP Access -
    Includes KVM over IP capability for anytime,
    anywhere access and control along with a slim
    design and GUI for point and click remote access.

    Computer Interface Modules (CIMs) - Provide
    “keep-alive” keyboard/mouse emulation at the
    server. Just plug the CIM into the server's keyboard,
    monitor, and mouse ports and connect it to Paragon
    II with a single Cat5 cable. New smaller and
    slimmer Paragon II CIMs provide the added
    convenience of firmware upgradeability without
    interrupting the installed configuration.

    Performance

    Non-Blocked Access - Up to 64 users have a clear
    path to up to 10.000 servers, dramatically increasing
    productivity with no user blocked from server
    access.

    Cross-Platform Support - Seamless access to all
    operating systems, platforms, and connections:
    Linux, Windows® NT, UNIX®, Novell, Sun®,
    IBM® RS/6000 and pSeries™, HP9000, Alpha™,
    SGI, ASCII/ serial USB or PS/2.

    Higher-Quality Video at Greater Distances -
    Paragon II’s automatic video tuning delivers the
    highest possible video quality. And, unlike
    competitive offerings, it offers the capability of
    fine tuning a signal for the individual eye.

    Scalable

    Grow as You Go - Add, relocate, and hot-swap
    components without disruption as your data center
    needs change.

    Access From Inside and Outside the Data
    Center     - Flexibility to access servers from inside
    and outside the data center, and globally over IP.

    Enterprise Solution - May be deployed individually
    or integrated with any of Raritan’s enterprise-wide
    data center solutions including CommandCenter.

    Flexibility
  • Streamlines management capabilities with
    event logging and audit trails.

  • Distributed architecture lets you physically
    position servers and users where desired.

    'Now, the Industry's Best Cat5 KVM Solution is Even Better'

    Paragon Technology

  • Next generation technology built upon the most widely deployed KVM switching in the
    industry.

    • KVM switching
  • Provides powerful BIOS-level access and full keyboard and mouse control of Windows, SUN
    and USB servers – allowing administrators to maintain and control servers, as if they were
    actually present at the rack.

    • High performance Analog technology
  • Paragon II’s analog switching provides extremely high video quality ideal for use in
    management-intensive scenarios such as in a Network Operations Center (NOC).

    • Stackable expansion unit
  • Paragon II’s stacking unit allows expansion of each switch to attach up to 128 devices per
    switch with a single cable.

  • Stacking architecture simplifies cabling between ‘tiers’ by replacing pass through cables with
    a single expansion cable – saving up to 32 cables per switch.

  • Stacking allows a reduction in the number of units deployed by 33% (two units replace three
    units) giving savings in initial cost, rack space and lower HVAC provisioning costs.

    • Highly scaleable architecture
  • Paragon II’s architecture allows for connection of up to 10,000 attached devices in a single
    logical deployment.

    • Cat5 Simplicity©
  • Paragon II leverages Raritan’s Cat5 simplicity technology allowing any standard UTP cables
    to be used, therefore allowing the use of existing cabling infrastructure or cost-effective,
    readily available cabling.

    • Optional IP Access
  • Optional IP Access extends the typical distance between Paragon components allowing users
    to access a Paragon II deployment from anywhere such as HQ, home, or while traveling.
    Integrated power management

  • Provides a single, consolidated view (and control of) Raritan Remote Power Control Units
    connected to Paragon II, allowing administrators to monitor status and recycle power to
    remote equipment including servers, remote alarm monitoring, HVAC, and other critical
    data center equipment.

    • Paragon Manager administrative software
  • GUI software that drastically simplifies management and monitoring of the data center by
    consolidating administration of attached equipment. With a single view of all connected
    equipment via the LAN, Paragon Manager lets you capture and save all system events for
    auditing purposes, push firmware upgrades via the network, and maintain system profiles.

    • Firmware upgradeability via network connection
  • Simplifies the upgrading of firmware updates by allowing the administrator to push upgrades
    out over the network and complete installs from the NOC – saving time and money.

    • Cross-platform and hardware independent
  • Allows the connection of multiple disparate servers such as Windows, SUN, Compaq, HP
    and UNIX-based servers. Also allows serial devices to be connected with the use of
    Raritan’s AUATC adaptors.

    • Backward compatibility
  • Paragon II is compatible with existing Paragon equipment avoiding equipment redundancy
    and allowing continued ROI.

    • Small form factors and rack-mounting
  • Very small form-factor saves expensive rack space and makes it perfect for large data centers
    where space is at a premium. Reduced form factors minimize electrical consumption by
    lowering HVAC provisioning needs.

    • AC Power: 110/220V Auto-Switching
  • Integrated power supply ensures proper power provision and system reliability.
