Raritan P2-EUST/C Paragon II Enhanced User Station with integrated Smart Card/Common Access Card reader - Analog access point providing enhanced video performance; for USB consoles


P2-EUST/C

Description:
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.

'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.

    • P2-EUST/C Typical setup 315

    Specification:
    Paragon II Enhanced User Station with integrated Smart Card/Common Access Card reader - Analog access point providing enhanced video performance; for USB consoles.


    Enhanced User Station with Smart Card Technology (P2-EUST/C): Provides an intuitive on-screen user interface for PS/2, USB and Sun servers. It features the best video quality and highest video resolution up to 1920x1440 at distances of up to 1000 feet. Offers both manual and automatic skew compensation. The Video Redirect feature allows administrators to transfer a server’s video signal from one user station to another. In addition to this the unit has a built in smart card reader for enhanced security as well as for SIPRNet access tokens

    The User station Unit is required to top the Paragon® II system is an enterprise-class Cat5 analog KVM solution that provides up to 64-users with secure, real-time access and control of thousands of servers and serial devices. Now enhanced with secure smart card (also known as common access card, or CAC) technology, and support for SIPRNet hardware tokens and 90meter middleware, Paragon II's superior secure KVM switch technology supports the highest video resolution in the industry. It combines non-blocked access with the industry's highest port density, optional integrated KVM-over-IP and rich management capabilities. It also provides great flexibility and manageability through access to leading platforms, including IBM BladeCenter.
