StarTech.com SV1641HDI

Startech.com’s SV1641HDI goes above and beyond typcial remote server management by combining Startech's Server Remote Control technology with a proven Enterprise-class digital KVM switch. The SV1641HDI empowers you to securely manage up to sixteen computers remotely from almost anywhere, using your LAN or the Internet. The SV1641HDI gives you BIOS-level control and full interaction with your system’s boot process. Control does not come at the expense of security: SSH tunneling, SSL encryption, RADIUS authentication, and a configurable firewall are included to ensure that your network stays secure. Your access to the web console is user-ID and SSL-password secure.

With both USB and PS/2 support, this switch easily handles a mixed platform environment to provide a central point of administration for all your servers. For added flexibility you can attach your existing KVM switches to the SV1641HDI to remotely control up to 136 computers, and its standardized 1U rack-mountable metal chassis allows easy installation in your rack or cabinet. The SV1641HDI is perfect for any organization that demands secure, flexible local and remote administration of its critical systems.

The Auto Scan Mode lets you switch between computers for easy monitoring, and each computer name can be defined using the OSD (on-screen display) menu. This switch features hot-plugging that allows computers to be added or removed without you having to shut them down first. Sixteen discrete user accounts are supported. The universal KVM switch controls up to sixteen computers directly, and up to 136 computers by cascading 8 additional KVM switches. This switch works with PC, Mac and Sun servers and systems.

Removable Drive Drawers/Mobile Racks
"5 star rating - I would recommend this to anyone that is serious about using a drawer-swapping unit...Installation was a snap...the instructions are detailed and complete so there is no guesswork to be done...The software is the easiest in design that I have seen.
With the solid aluminum design on the drive, heat disperses faster and actually keeps the drive a lot cooler. The design of the unit is [a] fine piece of craftsmanship...very well designed and the materials are top quality."

"The StarTech.com's caddy and drawer are both made of sturdy, cast aluminum, which passively leaches away your hard drive's heat... One of the litmus tests you must pass before declaring yourself a computer geek is that you must covet this product.

"I must say that I was amazed at what you get for $150 (USD MSRP) as this blows away (price-wise) a VGA switcher from a company like Extron as the Presentation Jockey can display outputs from up to eight computers or laptops onto a single monitor or projector... the price is hard to beat."

Video Game Jockey - Play Console Video Games on your Computer Monitor
"The StarTech.com Video Game Jockey allows you to play your game console or to watch movies from your DVD player on your PC monitor, and then press a button to switch back to regular PC input. It's a fresh take on a similar product we saw last year from ViewSonic, but at $80 it's about half the price."

"...an excellent idea for a college student with a PC and game console in his dorm room, but no space for a TV."
– Dallas Morning News – September 01, 2003

"The pass-through had absolutely no detectable effect on the quality of my PC video. It's a great feature because it means you can leave everything set up permanently around your computer monitor and then just unhook your console and take it over to the TV when you get some television time to yourself. StarTech points out that you can also leave your PC on in the background when playing a console game, and switch back and forth to check e-mail or instant messages while your next consolde-based screen loads - bliss."

"You’ve seen the show 'Pimp My Ride' on MTV? Well, now you can pimp your PC with Mutant Mods. These cool-looking goodies can replace existing parts in your computer or add new parts that contribute funky light and unique designs. Are your cables a boring gray? Replace them with cables that light up. And why have plain silver screws when you can have copper skulls instead? Some products have functional purpose – such as LED (light-emitting diode) fans that illuminate your PC while cooling its components – while others are strictly for appearance, such as Electro Luminescent Wire that makes your PC’s insides glow. Prices vary but you can give your computer a decent tweaking for $15."
