VertivTM Avocent® HMX
6500R eliminates physical restrictions to data access across hybrid networks
for broadcast, post-production and other users of hybrid IT
Vertiv, (NYSE:
VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity
solutions, today introduced the Vertiv™ Avocent® HMX 6500R receiver,
a high-performance KVM receiver that allows users of Avocent® HMX KVM Switches to
seamlessly switch between virtual and physical machines from their workstation.
The Avocent HMX 6500R does not require additional transmitters to access
virtual machines, opening up fast, easy access and control to data and files
all across today’s complex IT environments. It is available globally.
The IP-based Avocent HMX
6500R integrates seamlessly with existing Avocent HMX KVM systems, allowing
secure, unlimited access to virtual machines across enterprise and colocation
facilities. It eliminates the distance limitations inherent when physical connections
are required, while still delivering an uncompromised desktop experience. The
Avocent HMX 6500R offers DisplayPort video capabilities and expands data and
file access in broadcast control rooms and postproduction facilities, mass
transit control centers, government agencies, and for any organizations with
hybrid IT architectures.
“Hybrid IT deployments
are becoming the norm for most organizations, and software providers
increasingly are delivering their platforms in both on-premise and virtualized
formats,” said Angie McMillin, vice president and general manager of IT Systems
solutions for Vertiv. “The Avocent HMX 6500R receiver eliminates any
distinction between those formats and delivers seamless, unrestricted data
access across today’s hybrid environments.”
“Enterprises are
increasingly favouring hybrid infrastructure to manage data across complex IT
environments. With Vertiv’s Avocent HMX 6500R receiver, companies can
seamlessly gain real-time, unrestricted access to both virtual and field
machines from a single interface. Leveraging our industry expertise, our goal
is to constantly strengthen and broaden our capabilities, and ensure that our
customers benefit from these advancemnets,” said Smrutiranjan Das, country head
– IT & management systems business, Vertiv, India.
The Avocent HMX6500R
receiver is also compatible with Avocent® HMX
Advanced Manager Software, which expands the
capabilities of the entire Avocent® HMX family of KVM switches
and extenders to create a true, switchable matrix between multiple transmitters
and receivers.
Last
year, market intelligence firm IHS Markit ranked Vertiv the No. 1 supplier of remote IT management solutions worldwide in
