With the modem, where our connection topped out at 21K bps, the mouse was almost useless. The combination of Emerge 2000 and Apex console switches let us control multiple servers running NT, NetWare, Mac OS or several Unix variants, including Linux. An additional Apex device is needed to control Sun Microsystems Inc. servers. According to Apex officials, Emerge 2000 works with KVM switches from vendors such as Cybex and Raritan, but we recommend using Apex switches for optimal performance. Coupled with Apex's multiconsole KVM switches, Emerge 2000 is a powerful remote management solution for multiple-server environments.
Installation is simple.
Companies using Emerge 2000 to remotely manage multiple servers can expect an excellent long-term return on investment. Inc. All rights reserved. Inc.
