Minicom delivers centralized KVM server management to Tibet Finance Ministry

Minicom Advanced Systems, a global leader in KVM switches and server management solutions, announced today that its DX system has been installed at the Tibet Ministry of Finance. The DX system is designed to provide centralized KVM server management to improve data center server room efficiency and increase server usability. Tibet’s finance ministry operates an extensive number of servers, accessed and controlled by a number of EZ-Link KVM switches. However, without online IP capability or non-blocking access to the servers the ministry was struggling to maintain efficient work flow

management.

Once installed, the DX system provides the ministry’s IT staff with non-blocking access, enabling up to eight users to control any number of servers via a secure out-of-band connection over CAT5 cable. KVM IP access, serial control, power management and user administration all come under the DX’s control, making it an extremely powerful management solution. DX’s remote access capability also means that users in other buildings could access and control the servers from a standard web-browser over a secure IP connection.

According to Michael Lahav, Regional Sales Manager for Minicom, “The DX System was exactly the solution the ministry was looking for. They now have simultaneous multi-user access as well as online access to the servers. This improves the level of work efficiency and increases the convenience and usability of the servers. Operating in a more streamlined work environment, productivity is up and any problems can now be solved far quicker resulting in reduced downtime.” For more about Minicom’s range of KVM solutions go to www.minicom.com/kvm.htm or click here to read our KVM case studies.
