Z-Series

 Control up to 42 servers in Zero-U rack space   with the switchless KVM switch. 

 The ultimate space saver 

Raritan's innovative Z-Series enables access and control of multiple servers from a single user console (keyboard, monitor, and mouse), without consuming precious rack space.

Z-Series Z4200U 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-switch cable. It is designed to support the 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, including:

  • Densely packed 1U and 2U rack mount servers
  • Corporate data centers, ISPs, co-location, and Web hosting facilities
  • Computer test labs, call centers, help desks, and training rooms .    

 Simplified installation with less cable

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 via Raritan's unique DirectConnect technology 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 plug into the User Station, enabling the user to select and control up to 42 servers via simple on-screen user interface menus. Servers can be added at any time without interrupting server operation.  

 Seamless interface to enterprise-class ParagonŽ  

Z-Series is Paragon ReadyT, 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 Ver. 2.5 with a single Category 5 UTP cable.
