What is Managed Switching?
Managed Switching™ is the automated operation of several dissimilar unmanaged switches and other remote management technologies.

Active Remote Management
Combines operation of multiple switches while automating equipment maintenance and server recovery by pushing computer control to users immediately upon system failures or other user defined events.

Desktop Managed Switching (DMS)
Expands server lists from the 8 devices traditionally displayed on the OSD to several hundred. When the OSD is displayed, it prevents users from using the computer input devices. Desktop Managed Switching eliminates this operational interference to allow full operation until switching has occured.

DMS reduces operator error by helping users quickly locate and switch to remote computers through a standard interface. Even if your operation uses multiple brands of switch hardware.

Advanced Features can be used to filter the equipment list while automation virtually eliminates routine user task like manually logging off before activating the OSD to switch between computer ports.
