Dominion KX II - FAQ

Question Answer
How do I connect multiple
Dominion KX II devices
together into one solution?
Multiple Dominion KX II units do not need to be physically connected
together. Instead, each Dominion KX II unit connects to the network,
and they automatically work together as a single solution if deployed
with Raritan’s CommandCenter Secure Gateway management
appliance.
CommandCenter Secure Gateway acts as a single access point for
remote access and management. CommandCenter Secure Gateway
offers a significant set of convenient tools, such as consolidated
configuration, consolidated firmware update and a single authentication
and authorization database.
In addition, CommandCenter Secure Gateway enables sophisticated
server sorting, permissions and access. If deployment of Raritan’s
CommandCenter Secure Gateway management appliance isn’t an
option, multiple Dominion KX II units still interoperate and scale
automatically: The Dominion KX II’s remote user interface and the
Multiplatform Client will automatically discover Dominion KX II units.
Non-discovered Dominion KX II units can be accessed via a user-
created profile.
Can I connect an existing
analog KVM switch to
Dominion KX II?
Yes. Analog KVM switches can be connected to one of Dominion KX II’s
server ports. Simply use a PS/2 Computer Interface Module (CIM),
and attach it to the user ports of the existing analog KVM switch.
Please note that analog KVM switches vary in their specifications and
Raritan cannot guarantee the interoperability of any particular third-party
analog KVM switch. Contact Raritan technical support for further
information.
Computer Interface Modules (CIMs)
Can I use computer
interface modules (CIMs)
from Paragon, Raritan’s
analog matrix KVM switch,
with Dominion KX II?
Yes. Certain Paragon computer interface modules (CIMs) may work
with Dominion KX II. (Please check the Raritan Dominion KX II Release
Notes on the Web site for the latest list of certified CIMs.)
However, because Paragon CIMs cost more than Dominion KX II CIMs
(as they incorporate technology for video transmission of up to 1,000
feet [304 m]), it is not generally advisable to purchase Paragon CIMs for
use with Dominion KX II. Also note that when connected to Dominion
KX II, Paragon CIMs transmit video at a distance of up to 150 feet
(46 m), the same as Dominion KX II CIMs – not at 1,000 feet (304 m),
as they do when connected to Paragon.
