Chapter 1: Product Overview

Features and Benefits

The multiuser, 16 port AutoView 2000 integrates Avocent’s field-proven analog

keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) switching technology with advanced cable

management, flexible access for two simultaneous users and a patented, next-

generation user interface. The AutoView 2000 KVM switch conveniently

supports all major server platforms and features powerful on-screen

management for easy system configuration and server selection.

A unique benefit of the AutoView 2000 is the AVRIQ intelligent module. The

AVRIQ module with CAT 5 design dramatically reduces cable clutter, while

providing optimal resolution and video settings. The built-in memory of the

AVRIQ simplifies configuration by assigning and retaining unique server

names and Electronic ID (EID) numbers for each attached server. The AVRIQ

is powered directly from the server and provides Keep Alive™ functionality

even if the AutoView is not powered.

NOTE: Throughout the documentation you will see the word “appliance” used generically to

describe the AutoView 2000 switch.

Figure 1.1: AutoView 2000

AVRIQ intelligent module

AVRIQ modules allow direct KVM connectivity to servers in your AutoView

system. Each AutoView 2000 has 16 Avocent Rack Interface (ARI) ports for

connecting AVRIQ modules.

Utilizing an AVRIQ, you can attach additional switches to expand your

AutoView system. This flexibility allows you to add capacity as your data

center grows.

Multiplatform support

The AVRIQ modules available with the AutoView 2000 support PS/2, Sun and

USB server environments. Using the On-Screen Configuration and Activity

Reporting interface (OSCAR) in conjunction with these modules allows you

to switch easily across platforms.

OSCAR graphical user interface

An AutoView 2000 switch uses OSCAR, which features intuitive menus to

configure your switch system and select computers. Computers can be

identified by unique name, EID or port number, allowing you to assign unique

server names.

Security

OSCAR allows you to protect your system with a screen saver password. After

a user-defined time, the screen saver mode engages and access is prohibited

until the appropriate password is entered to reactivate the system.

Operation modes

The OSCAR user interface provides convenient operation modes for easy

AutoView 2000 system administration. These modes (Broadcast, Scan, Switch

and Share) allow you to manage your switching activities. Chapter 3 explains

these modes in detail.

Video

AutoView 2000 provides optimal resolution for analog VGA, SVGA and XGA

video. Achieve resolutions of up to 1600 x 1200 with a 10 foot cable and up to

800 x 600 with a 50 foot cable. Resolutions will vary depending upon the length

of cable separating your switch and servers.

Plug and Play

The AutoView 2000 also supports Display Data Channel Plug and Play, which

automates configuration of the monitor and is compliant with the VESA

DDC2B standard.

FLASH upgradable

Upgrade your firmware at any time through a simple update utility to ensure

that your AutoView system is always running the most current version

available. Both the AutoView 2000 switch and the AVRIQ modules are FLASH

upgradable. See Appendix A for more information.

Cascading expansion

Each AutoView 2000 switch supports up to 16 directly attached servers and can

conveniently scale to support more. You can expand your system using

cascadable Avocent products such as other AutoViews or Outlook appliances.

This extra “cascade” of units allows you to attach up to 256 servers in one system.
