In today’s server environments IT managers are faced with increasingly elaborate
hardware mixes, high-density rack installations, as well as complex server and user
profiles, and the need for 24/7 uptime and maximum scalability. These complexities
call for a comprehensive and unified management system – a system that is more
than just another KVM switch. Minicom answers this call, and presents the innovative
DX matrix system, designed for advanced multi-functional, unified out-of-band
management based on state-of-the-art CAT5 technology.
The DX matrix system combines four
major functions in one unified solution:
• KVM switching and control
• Serial control
• Power management
• User management
The DX system unifies these four functions using AIM
AIM (Advanced Integrated Manager), is a LINUX based, innovative
embedded program that supplies advanced management functionality in a
hardware-only solution.
AIM combines the management of all four major functions within a single intuitive,
Windows-like interface, for truly unified administration of your server environment.
The DX matrix system gives you a highly secure, integrated, flexible and supremely
scalable solution for 24/7 BIOS-level control and management of high-density
mission critical server environments through:
• Unified, One-stop, local and remote control.
• Revolutionary embedded management functionality in a pure hardware solution.
• High-level security.
• Multi-functional, multi-user, multi-platform matrix solution.
• Seamless cascading.
• State-of-the-art CAT5 all-the-way technology.
• Maximum business value & ROI.
One-stop Local and Remote Control
The DX system manages all KVM and Serial equipment centrally, eliminating
redundant management effort, and saving you time and money in your corporate
high-density server environment. And through flexible remote IP access, the DX
system enables you to control your server installation from anywhere in the world,
at any time, further reducing overhead and administration costs.
YOUR SOLUTION FOR CENTRALIZED
KVM & SERIAL MANAGEMENT
Powerful Management
Minicom revolutionizes out-of-band management with
the power of AIM. Using AIM, your server environment
benefits from out-of-band BIOS level access combined
with advanced management functionality in a pure
hardware solution. AIM enhances and simplifies your
administration capabilities through:
• Intuitive, Windows-like GUI replacing the
traditional OSD.
• Comprehensive management of all KVM and
Serial hardware in the data center.
• Multi-layer user administration.
• Multi-level security access control.
Multi-Functional, Multi-User
and Multi-Platform
The growing server environment and its ever-increasing
data requirements call for a clutter-free, powerful and
centralized multi-functional matrix solution. The DX matrix
system is the optimal solution for the server environment
challenge, meeting today’s needs and preparing for future
scalability. Features include:
• Non-blocking control of multiple users for thousands
of servers.
• Mixed multi-platform support: PS/2, SUN, USB and RS232.
• Flexible remote IP access: fit the IP mix to your needs and
add IP users as your business grows.
• Built-in local computer access at every user station.
• CAT5 all-the-way technology, from server to user.
Seamless Cascading
The DX system’s seamless cascade of additional switch
layers allows you to add multiple servers that are
monitored and controlled from the same interface,
regardless of their physical connection. Minicom’s
embedded AIM solution automatically recognizes
the additional layers of DX systems, streamlining
setup of additional switches. There is no single point
of failure - system settings and parameters are saved
on all DX central units. With seamless cascading,
your DX system grows with your needs while keeping
the same straightforward management approach.
High-Level Security
Security is key to your server environment’s performance.
The DX system’s multiple layer security protection
with user-name and password authentication includes
up to 32 user profiles for hundreds of users,
and 4 levels of user access rights for increased
protection. In addition, DX’s innovative
technology includes double authentication
of access rights through port and server
recognition, for an exceptionally
secure system.
