Introduction
KVM Remote Access
Access your servers anywhere in the world from the UltraLink Viewer program
Features and Benefits
UltraLink is a powerful product that extends the range of access to your computers to
anywhere in the world. Its advanced design makes it compatible with industry standard
KVM switches and computers. It is most commonly used to extend a KVM switch’s user
port to be accessed by either a LAN, WAN, or dial-up connection.
Connect the unit to a standalone computer or KVM switch and your Ethernet network.
Assign an IP address to the UltraLink and run the remote access client from any
workstation.
ou can access the server just like you were standing in front of it, but you can be at home,
work, or half way around the world. Easy to configure security features, prevent
unauthorized access.
The UltraLink has a sophisticated scaling feature allowing you to position any size image of
your server anywhere on your screen. Now you can monitor servers while you work on
other tasks. It is also ideal for fast updates over slow links because less data is sent.
Because the unit is a fully embedded product with no hard drive or complicated operating
system, you are ensured of the highest reliability and availability.
A maximum resolution of 1280 x 1024 is supported for access to not only PCs, but also Sun
and other high-resolution computers. ou can also access the UltraLink through its serial
port for dial-up modem access. The UltraLink also features a local KVM port for access
directly at the unit.
 Connect to remote computer over Ethernet or dial-up
 Up to 1280x1024 resolution
 1U high chassis
 Easy to install, just give it an IP address and run the remote client application

 Front panel shows power and currently connected input port either net, serial, or local
KVM
 Solid-state embedded unit has no disk drive for maximum reliability
 Remote client application is simple to use, installs very easily, and requires no
licensing
 Password security prevents unauthorized configuration
 Made in USA
 One-year warranty
Installation
UltraLink is easy to install. Just connect the UltraLink to your standard 10/100 Ethernet
network, a keyboard, monitor, and mouse, and a KVM switch or standalone computer.
ou can also connect a modem if you like for dial-up access. An IP address is assigned
from a simple menu at the local KVM port on the UltraLink. That completes the basic
UltraLink installation. Now go to a PC on the network and run the UltraLink Viewer
provided. Enter the IP address of the UltraLink and hit the connect icon. ou are now
prompted for a password. Enter the correct password and you will be connected to the
switch or standalone computer as if you were directly connected.
Operation
The UltraLink has three access points to the switch or standalone computer: Ethernet,
serial, and a local KVM port. The local KVM port is an integrated switched analog port.
When you connect the UltraLink to a KVM switch, the integrated local KVM port
allows you to have direct analog access to the switch, so you do not lose the KVM port
on the switch. From the local KVM port, you are able to configure the basic network
and password information. All access to the attached computers is through a menu. The
menu prompts you to enter the password. Once the correct password is entered, if no
one else is connected you are granted access. Otherwise, you are informed that another
connection is in progress and you are denied access. If you use the Administrator
password, you can override the connection in progress for immediate connection.
Server Windowing
ou can choose the size of the window that you work with. This allows you to either
park a scaled image of your server in the corner of your screen or work with it at full
resolution. By resizing the UltraLink window, you automatically communicate to the
UltraLink unit, which then sends scaled video to fit your resized window. When using a
reduced window, less data is sent improving performance and reducing network
bandwidth. If you wish, you can run in -scaled, scrolled, or full-screen modes.
