The First Choice of Leading Companies for Paragon Power and Cat5 Simplicity™

The Paragon 8-user, 32-port (UMT8) Matrix Switching Unit is the only Category 5 UTP cable-based KVM solution with award winning proven performance. Thousands of companies worldwide have chosen Paragon UMT8 to access and control their mission-critical servers and other network devices, because it always works.

The Paragon UMT8 was the first of Raritan's full line of secure, flexible Paragon KVM solutions, part of a unique modular architecture designed to optimize access and control of mission-critical servers in larger data centers. Paragon UMT8 enables eight users to have simultaneous non-blocked access to up to 32 servers, regardless of server platform. It is available in a compact, rack-mountable 1U form factor, and is easily expandable to support additional servers and users.

Paragon Compatibility
The Paragon UMT8 Matrix Switching Unit supports the same Paragon User Station, CIMs and on-screen user interface as the 16, 42 and 64-port models in the current Paragon family, so the user can scale up seamlessly using any Paragon model. It also supports all Paragon Ready™ products for management of all data center devices, including other Raritan switches like the innovative Z-Series™, and products of other major vendors such as the IBMx330™.
