The KVM/net is a 1U rack-mountble device that serves as a single access 
point for administering and using servers and other devices through inband 
and out-of-band access methods. 

The following figure shows the front and back of the KVM/net.

Figure 1-1: KVM/net Front and Back

You use the KVM ports on the left and middle back of the KVM/net to 
connect servers. You can use the AUX port on the right back to connect 
AlterPath PMs or an optional external modem. You use the management ports 
on the right back to connect to the KVM/net and to its connected devices. 

Depending on the model, the KVM/net comes with either 16- or 32-KVM 
ports to connect from 16 to 32 servers with KVM connections.

The KVM/net can be used to manage power of up to 128 devices when the 
devices are plugged into up to 32 daisy-chained AlterPath PM intelligent 
power distribution units that are connected to the AUX port on the KVM/net.

KVM/net administrators and users who are authorized to access connected 
devices can connect locally or remotely from LANs, WANs, or other dial-in 
connections through the Ethernet port or through an optional external modem.

For extended local administration, administrators can connect the Cyclades 
AlterPath KVM Expander (purchased separately) to the KVM/net with a 
CAT5 cable of up to 500 feet in length.
