Description

Raritan’s Dominion LX is the KVM-over-IP switch that provides IT managers in small to midsize business (SMB) environments with local and remote BIOS-level access and control of up to 16 servers, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week no matter where you are. With tiering, multiple Dominion LX switches can be connected together, and up to 256 servers can be accessed.

As the most compatible KVM-over-IP switch in its class, the Dominion LX supports analog VGA, as well as digital DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort video technology, in a single switch.

The Dominion LX modern architecture platform supports High Definition (HD) 1920x1080 remote video resolution for a crisp, clear view into your server infrastructure. Unlike other KVM-over-IP switches for SMBs, the Dominion LX offers economical, remote access and the ability to install OS and software from anywhere using Universal Virtual Media™, efficient reliable server management through a common and modern GUI, and low cost flexible computer interface modules (CIMs) for a minimum initial investment.

With the Dominion LX you will be able to access and manage the servers that store your critical business information, wherever and whenever you need to.

Dominion LX is available in three models. See the ordering tab for ordering information:

DLX-108 (1 local user, 1 remote user; 8 KVM ports)
DLX-116 (1 local user, 1 remote user; 16 KVM ports)

Features

Hardware
Next-Generation, Modern Hardware Architecture	Dominion LX is a true next-generation switch with an advanced hardware and software architecture specifically for small to midsize businesses (SMBs). This innovative design, found in three hardware models, enables new levels of KVM-over-IP performance, reliability, usability, compatibility and security.
High Performance, Next-Generation Video Hardware with HD Resolution	Dominion LX‚Äôs KVM-over-IP engine uses Raritan‚Äôs next-generation technology, providing users with ultra-fast video screen refresh, 1920 x 1080 high-definition, remote video resolution, and advanced color calibration.
Quick and Easy Appliance Setup ‚Äì ‚ÄúPlug and Play‚Äù Mouse Synchronization	Dominion LX is a secure, Linux^¬Æ-based hardware appliance. All standard Dominion LX features, including authentication and Web access, are built into the unit and do not require the use of an additional server.
Three USB Ports for Keyboard, Mouse and USB Media	The Dominion LX has three USB 2.0 ports on the back panel, for local keyboard, mouse and USB media.
1U Form Factor	The Dominion LX is only 1U (UST sized) in height, making the Dominion LX an extremely rack-efficient KVM-over-IP solution.
Cat5 Cabling	Dominion LX interconnects with each server via standard, economical Cat5 (UTP) cabling. Servers may be located up to 150 cable feet from the Dominion LX unit. Users can connect up to 8 or 16 servers to each Dominion LX via Cat5 cabling
Multiplatform Computer Interface Modules (CIMs)	Dominion LX supports Dominion CIMs, virtual media CIMs, MCUTP cable CIMs and serial CIMs. Servers and PC‚Äôs with analog VGA video, DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort digital video are supported. Dominion CIMs operate at distances of up to 150 feet from the Dominion LX switch, depending on server resolution.
Modem Port for Emergency Access	The Dominion LX modem port provides emergency remote access if the data network is unavailable.
KVM-over-IP Connectivity
One or Two Concurrent Remote IP Users	Dominion LX provides KVM-over-IP access to one or two simultaneous, remote users depending on the model purchased. Session sharing provides for full, unblocked local port access.
Remote Network Access ‚Äì KVM over IP	Users can access Dominion LX from anywhere on the network (LAN, WAN, Internet and dial-up), allowing administrators to troubleshoot, reconfigure, reboot and even reimage servers remotely.
Fully Independent Browser‚ÄëBased Local Console Port	The Dominion LX features a common, browser-based interface and full management functionality at the local port, providing a consistent user experience that is easy to learn. In addition, convenient hotkey switching between servers is supported.
Flexible Tiering (Cascading) of up to 256 Servers	Customers can connect (e.g., tier) multiple Dominion LX switches together, and access the attached servers in the data center or from a remote PC. Up to 256 servers can be accessed via a consolidated port list or via search (with wildcards).
Asian Languages ‚Äì Japanese and Simplified/Traditional Chinese	The Dominion LX‚Äôs remote HTML user interface and the KVM clients support the Japanese, simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese languages.
Dual Stack IP Networking ‚Äì IPv4 and IPv6	The Dominion LX provides dual stack IP networking with simultaneous support of IPv4 and IPv6.
Virtual Media	The benefits of virtual media ‚Äì mounting of remote drives/media on the target server to support software installation, remote booting and diagnostics ‚Äì are available in all the Dominion LX models. USB profiles allow virtual media connections to a wider variety of BIOS versions.
KVM Client Access and Control
Next-Generation Common User Interface	The Dominion LX has a next-generation, browser-based user interface that is common across the local port, remote access, management software as well as other Raritan products ‚Äì enhancing usability and productivity.
Multi-platform support	Raritan‚Äôs Windows^¬Æ and Java‚Ñ¢-based KVM clients provide multiplatform access and control on Windows, Linux, Sun^¬Æ/Solaris‚Ñ¢ and Macintosh^¬Æ desktops.
Firmware Upgrades over Ethernet	Dominion LX firmware upgrades can be downloaded directly from the Raritan website, and upgrades can be performed via the network. Dominion LX D2CIMs connected to the switch will also be upgraded.
Remote Video
Full-Screen Video Display with Flexible Video Scaling	With the Dominion LX‚Äôs full-screen video display, users appear to be directly connected to the target server, without window borders or toolbars. With the ‚Äúpop-up‚Äù menu bar, users can run KVM client functions while in full-screen mode. With the Dominion LX‚Äôs flexible scaling, the user is not restricted to fixed-size windows, but can drag the window border to the desired size, including small thumbnail views.
Port Scanning and Thumbnail Views	View selected servers as a slide show and/or real-time thumbnail views. The user can select a list of servers, set the scan interval and quickly access a given server. Works remotely and locally.
Fast Video Switching	Once the Dominion LX‚Äôs advanced video resolution detection has calculated a target server‚Äôs video characteristics, connections to the server occur almost instantaneously. This gives the Dominion LX user immediate access in most cases to all connected servers.
Mouse and Keyboard
Absolute Mouse Synchronization‚Ñ¢	The Absolute Mouse Synchronization‚Ñ¢ feature is the ultimate mouse synchronization solution. For Windows and Mac^¬Æ servers with a compatible USB mouse port, there is no need to adjust the mouse settings on the target server ‚Äì plug-and-play. This reduces installation time and ensures that the remote and target server mouse pointers never go out of synchronization. This feature is enabled by the D2CIM-VUSB and D2CIM-DVUSB virtual media CIMs.
Intelligent Mouse Synchronization‚Ñ¢	Most KVM switches require the customer to manually adjust the mouse motion and mouse acceleration settings for all connected target servers for each KVM user. With the Intelligent Mouse Synchronization option, manual configuration is eliminated for many servers. The system can automatically adjust to the server‚Äôs mouse settings, enhancing the plug-and-play operation of the mouse.
Transparent Keyboard Handling	Transparent keyboard handling means that virtually all user keystrokes are sent to the target server and not processed by the desktop client. This key feature obviates the need for most keyboard macros and allows the user to interact directly with the target server with a higher level of connectivity.
Security Features
AES Encryption	The Dominion LX utilizes the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption for added security. 128-bit and 256-bit AES encryption is available. AES is a U.S. government‚Äìapproved cryptographic algorithm that is recommended by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the FIPS Standard 197.
Video and Virtual Media Encryption	Dominion LX securely encrypts the video stream, keyboard and mouse data, and virtual media transmissions.
Local and Remote Authentication	Dominion LX integrates with industry-standard directory servers, such as Microsoft^¬ÆActive Directory^¬Æ, using either the LDAP or RADIUS protocols. This allows the Dominion LX to use pre-existing username/password databases for security.
Configurable, Strong Password Checking	The Dominion LX has administrator-configurable, strong password checking to ensure that user-created passwords meet corporate and/or government standards and are resistant to brute-force hacking.
Local Authentication with Users, Groups and Permissions	In addition to external authentication, the Dominion LX supports local authentication. Administrators can define users and groups with customizable administration and port access permissions.
Multiple Security Features	Dominion LX offers many additional security features, including password aging, inactivity timers, group permissions, per-port authorization, etc.
