Two Phantom users can simultaneously control and manage up to 63 servers in mixed, multi-platform environments (PS/2, SUN, RS-232, USB) from two separate KVM consoles. The Minicom Phantom's Distributed Switching Technology (DST) divides the KVM switch into smaller subunits: two Managers and multiple Remote units.
The Phantom MX II kvm switch system consists of one Phantom MX II Manager unit per system, one Universal Phantom Manager (UPM) unit per system and one Remote unit per computer (Specter II) up to 63 per line. The Specter modules are connected directly to the servers to be controlled and connected to each other via standard CAT5 cable. Flexible server/KVM console placement up to 110m/360ft away.
The Phantom MX II kvm switch features advanced On Screen Display (OSD)management, including multi-layered security, the most efficient way for monitoring, accessing and controlling your servers. You can also manage your Phantom system, via serial port, using the Phantom's Control Software or any other third party software.
