MZUST MasterConsole User Station
User Station Only (MZUST) – enables a user console (keyboard, video and mouse) to access and control up to 64 servers via simple, on-screen user interface.
Raritan's MasterConsole Z System is a space-saving, flexible KVM solution that allows one user to access and manage up to 64 (PS/2, USB, Sun) servers through a daisy-chain of computer interface modules (MZCIMs), one connected to each target server.
Designed for small to medium-sized data centers, the MasterConsole Z:
➤ Saves space: Requiring only a small user station at the desktop, it works without a traditional ”switch” and therefore takes up no rack space.
➤ Simplifies installation: Its server-to-server Cat5e daisy chain eliminates
unwieldy server-to-switch coax cables, simplifying installation. Servers can be added anywhere in the chain at any time.
➤ Supports multiple platforms: It works with a mixture of servers having PS/2, USB and Sun interfaces. This allows one ”switchless” KVM solution to manage what previously incurred the additional cost of converters in multi-platform environments.
➤ Extends access: It can access servers up to 213 meters away over Cat5e UTP cable. It is designed to support the most challenging demands of the small
to medium-size data center, where space is at a premium or where system administrators work outside the server room.
➤ Simplifies server administration: Allows administrators to select servers by user-defined names from an on-screen menu.
➤ Secures KVM access: Protects controlled servers with login and password.
➤ Supports flash upgrades: Both components (the User Station and the MZCIMs) can be upgraded, insuring the value of the initial investment against obsolescence.
Applications
MasterConsole Z is the ideal solution for:
➤ Densely packed 1U and 2U rack mount servers
➤ Small to medium-sized server rooms, data centers, ISPs and Web hosting facilities
➤ Computer test labs, call centers, help desks,
training rooms
➤ Small and medium-sized businesses, where the
servers are not all in the same room
System Components
The MasterConsole Z system consists of three basic
components:
1. User Station (MZUST) – enables a user console(keyboard, video and mouse) to access and control
up to 64 servers via simple, on-screen user interface.
2. Computer Interface Modules (MZCIMs) – connect
directly to the keyboard, video and mouse ports of target servers via PS/2, USB or SUN interfaces, and provide failsafe server access with Raritan's dedicated keyboard/mouse emulation. MZCIMs are linked (chained) one to the next with a single Cat5e UTP cable; the first MZCIM in the chain is linked to the User Station, also using Cat5e UTP cable.
The same cable chain can accommodate PS/2, Sun
and USB-connected servers, making this switchless
KVM solution particularly economical.
3. Terminator (TER-ZCIM) – terminates the daisy-chain of MZCIMs.
Features:
➤ Simple plug-and-play operation
