Sustainability is pivotal in modern business, with IT/OT convergence at the forefront of innovation. This union not only heightens competitiveness but also enhances responsiveness to market demands, particularly concerning data security and network uptime. With the rise of digitalization in industry, cybersecurity’s role in bolstering IT-OT synergy is crucial.
The DigiKVM™ – KG0016/KG0032 exemplifies this digital shift. This all-digital KVM over IP OmniBus Gateway champions digital transformation in spaces like server rooms and data centers. Through a secure portal, it offers centralized management and real-time remote server access. Regardless of the data signal type from the linked KVM DigiProcessor, all transmissions are digitized and protected, ensuring fast, clear video monitoring with remarkable visual accuracy.
The all-digital KVM over IP solution stands out for its robust security and versatile OS compatibility. It also presents a reliable way to manage remote IT access with out-of-band (OOBM) connection, especially when the in-band connectivity is compromised. For geographically spread businesses, it’s a boon, enabling IT to quickly reinstate services and minimize business downtime.
ISO/IEC 27002:2022 Compliance. BIOS-Level Remote Security
The KVM over IP OmniBus Gateway provides a secure, hardware-based KVM over IP solution with direct, hack-proof BIOS-level control. Unlike software tools such as VNC or RDP, it eliminates OS-level vulnerabilities while ensuring compliance with ISO/IEC 27002:2022 Control 6.7 on Remote Working – safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive data, processes, and systems in mission-critical environments.

Industry-First FIPS 140-3 Secured All-Digital KVM over IP Transmission
The KVM over IP OmniBus Gateway, operating within a closed system, provides a single secure portal to centralize BIOS-level connections to PCs and servers – without requiring additional software installation or configuration. As the industry’s first all-digital KVM over IP solution to implement FIPS 140-3 and TLS 1.3 encryption, it safeguards data transmission and ensures secure access to all remote servers via a Java-free HTML5 WebClient Viewer or a WinClient Viewer.
Real-time and Concurrent Remote Access, Anywhere and Anytime
The All-digital KVM over IP OmniBus Gateway allows real-time, up to 32 concurrent remote user access to any connected servers regardless where and when the login takes place. Server connection can be extended up to 100m away, delivering extraordinary FHD visual clarity and agile user experience with smooth keyboard-video-mouse synchronization.
Accelerating Digitalization via Digital Twin Model
With the deployment of the KVM over IP OmniBus Gateway and the KVM DigiProcessor, equipment data collected in the production line can be monitored and processed in real time via a remote console, preventing the need to constantly enter the production line or clean room for operations. This approach facilitates manufacturing digitalization via setting up a digital twin model to streamline and optimize production line processes.
Out-of-Band Management for Any Contingency
With the management network and production network separated, the KVM over IP OmniBus Gateway connected to the management network allows the IT operator to perform timely troubleshooting (e.g. software patches, image updates, reboots, etc.) and system maintenance over the servers via BIOS during the downtime of the production network. This approach can serve as an emergency measure in contingencies while keeping data and workflow secure from end to end.
Panel Array Mode™ Live+ for Multi-View Monitoring in Clarity
Real-time monitoring is effortless with Panel Array Mode™ Live+ where content of a dedicated server is displayed in 24-bit true color and up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz in a control-view window, while the video from all servers is presented in a multi-view grid layout which is variable as needed (up to 4×4 with KG0016 or 4×8 with KG0032). The video feed in both the control and array views is livestreamed in extraordinary smoothness for optimized situational awareness.
Virtual Media Support for Prompt Server Updates
Mapping media to a remote server as though it were saved locally does the trick for timely troubleshooting, reducing travel cost and minimizing MTTR (Mean Time to Repair). With a superb data transfer rate (i.e. Read: 265 Mbps, Write: 188 Mbps) proven to be 10 times faster than standard KVM over IP switches, performing firmware upgrades, diagnostic tests, file transfers, and installing software and application patches can all be accomplished smoothly and quickly from a single console located anywhere.
Superior Hardware Performance to Reinforce System Reliability and Usability
The KVM over IP OmniBus Gateway is built in with 4x server-grade smart fan modules, facilitating all-around airflow efficiency for strengthened system reliability. When the system is idle or under light workload, the fan then runs in a low hum under 40 dBA. In addition, the front panel pushbuttons can be used to perform timely troubleshooting with prompt device configuration and system reboot in contingencies, and also locked to secure system settings from unauthorized access.
Industry’s Most Compact KVM DigiProcessor to Maximize Rack Space Efficiency
The KVM DigiProcessor, available in VGA, DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort connectivity, is 25% lighter in weight and ¼ the size of comparable products for optimized in-rack server connections. The anti-bending SR hanger allows for flexible yet stable in-rack installation, while the indented groove on both sides is intended to prevent the device from falling loose when tied onto the rack. In addition, the heat radiating fins are purposed to boost airflow efficiency to ensure system reliability.
