ATEN CV211CP Laptop USB KVM Console Crash Cart Adapter IT Kit
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ATEN CV211CP Laptop USB KVM Console Crash Cart Adapter IT Kit - 2 Years Local Warranty
Your Laptop Becomes the Crash Cart
The CV211 adapter turns a laptop into a portable console for servers, PCs, kiosks and ATMs. Plug it into the target's USB and VGA ports and its Mini-USB port into your laptop to see and control the machine, with no heavy crash cart required.
IT Kit with DisplayPort and HDMI Adapters
The CV211CP kit adds a VC925 DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter and a VC810 HDMI-to-VGA adapter, so the same adapter works on servers and PCs with DisplayPort or HDMI video as well as VGA.
BIOS-Level Access and Virtual Media
Get instant BIOS-level control during hardware or OS failures. Virtual media enables file transfers, OS patching, diagnostics and software installs, and you can record video and take screenshots of the session.
Pocket-Sized and Bus-Powered
No software installation is needed on either side. The adapter is USB bus-powered, hot-pluggable, supports up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz and includes Mouse DynaSync, an on-screen keyboard and hotkey macros.
