Key Console Benefits
The Compaq Server Console Switches provide tangible benefits including -
Easy access to multiple servers
One or more persons can use more than one server or system (e.g., when there is a need to simply "switch" among several systems).
One person can manage large numbers of servers in an organized fashion, from one console.
Typically, at least 50 percent savings in floor space can be expected when using Compaq Console Server Switches in rack-mount configurations vs.
non-rack mounted server configurations. In one typical lab, console switches were implemented within rack mount configurations to save 67 percent
in required floor space.
With fewer monitors, power bills are reduced considerably: one Compaq Server Console Switch controlling 8 computers from a single monitor
reduces the monitor count by 7 (87 percent).
Air conditioning costs are reduced due to the reduction in heat due to fewer monitors when a Compaq Console Server Switch is implemented and
uses only one monitor.
The chart below shows an example of cost savings and financial return associated with console switch and rack-mount configurations in an urban
east-coast data center.
