Features 
Benefits 
Cross-Platform and 
Hardware Independent 
Works with a mixture of servers that have PS/2 and USB interfaces, 
including Sun USBs.  
Cat5 Simplicity™ 
Utilizes Cat5e cabling to carry KVM signals from the modules (MCIMs) 
to a single-user console. 
Long-Distance Video Quality 
With the two-user MasterConsole CAT (MCCAT28/216) and a User 
Station, the second user can be up to 650 ft (198m) from the switch for 
“lights-out” server room access. 
 
The MasterConsole CAT User Station (MCCAT-UST) can be placed 
up to 100 feet away from the switch. 
 
The Paragon
®
 II User Station (P2-EUST) can be placed up to 650 
feet away from the switch. 
Target Labeling 
Targets can be labeled with device names. This allows easier server 
selection from the on-screen menu. 
Scalability/Cascading  
Users can control up to eight or 16 servers. With the MCCAT116 and 
MCCAT216 models, users can control up to 256 servers by cascading 
the units. 
Management 
Password Authentication 
Support of one administrator and 127 user profiles for basic 
management. 
AutoScan and AutoSkip 
AutoScan allows users to scan servers at variable rates. AutoSkip 
bypasses inactive channels. 
Screen Saver 
A screen saver feature is provided in addition to the already supported 
Green Mode feature. 
Backward Compatibility  
MCCAT is compatible with existing MasterConsole equipment, 
allowing for investment protection and continued ROI.
