Product Overview
For managed KVM switching and extension, the Ethernet-based HMX manager is the solution for centralized desktop management. The HMX Manager provides ease of workstation maintenance, management, and access in a secure environment.
The Avocent HMX Manager provides centralized management and control of HMX computer interface modules and desktop user stations, allowing them to serve as endpoints of a high performance LAN-based KVM switch. It provides uncompromised access to business-critical systems.
Based on Gigabit Ethernet and highly optimized extension technology, the Avocent HMX system provides the image quality and responsiveness associated with distance-limited analog KVM switches, and the unlimited distance benefits previously only available through KVM over IP switches. In addition to near lossless video and snappy mouse response, these third-generation, network-based products deliver CD quality audio and seamless extension of USB mass storage devices.

Features and Benefits
- Centralization of Computer Assets - KVM switching and extension allows business-critical workstations to be maintained in a secure location where they can be properly monitored and maintained. Noisy systems are removed from the work area to allow for critical viewing and listening of content. Conditioned power and backup can be centrally maintained. Shared access may be provided to expensive workstations. Users may access workstations from various locations as if sitting directly in front of it.
- Security - Centralized login credentials allow administrators to enforce access restrictions to critical systems. Granular settings allow administrators to permit server access only from select user stations. This ensures that secure data cannot be viewed from non-secure areas.
- Audit Logging - Provides full logging of all system access including user login, login status, connection times, disconnection time, and system update.
- Web Based Management of User Access Rights - Users can gain access to their computer from any desk once their login credentials have been approved by the HMX manager. This means the users can change desk locations without the need for the administrator to reconfigure each desk to provide access.
- Web Based Management - Administrators can conveniently perform system administration and setup right from their desk.
