The Ultimate Space Saver

Raritan's innovative Z-Series offers a switchless solution that enables access and control of multiple servers from a single user console (keyboard, monitor, and mouse), without consuming precious rack space. Raritan Z-Series 4200U employs Raritan's unique communication technology to control up to 42 servers and eliminate the traditional KVM switch box and all hard-to-manage server-to-server cable. It is designed to support he most challenging demands of server management where space is at a premium or where systems to be accessed are up to 1,000 feet away via Category 5 UTP cable.

Simplified Installation and Operation

Raritan Z-Series replaces the traditional KVM switch-to-multiple-server cabling configuration with an innovative chain-like server-to-server arrangement, significantly reducing cable clutter. Small Computer Interface Modules (Z-CIMs) connected to the keyboard, video, and mouse ports of each server are linked with standard Category 5 UTP cable and transmit the keyboard, video, and mouse signals to a User Station. A keyboard, monitor, and mouse (PS/2 or Sun) plug into the User Station, enabling the user to select and control up to 42 servers via simple on-screen user interface menus. Since Z-series components are plug and play, servers can be added at any time with no interruption of server operation.

Seamless Interface to Raritan's Enterprise-Class Paragon

Z-Series is Paragon Ready, for convenient, clustered access and control of high-density rack mounted servers in large-scale data centers. Connect the first Z-CIM in the chain directly to Raritan's Paragon with a single Category 5 UTP cable.
