Paragon II is a Cat5 analog KVM solution that provides up to 64 users with secure, non-blocked access and control of data center devices. Its rich suite of management features enables logging and audit trails, systemwide reset from a user station and a single, consolidated view of all connected devices. It can also scale up to thousands of servers to dramatically reduce costs of data center equipment and rack space.
The Industry’s Best Video Performance
Paragon II offers the industry’ s best video quality with resolutions as high as 1920 x 1440 – at distances of up to 1,000 feet (305 meters) – at refresh rates of 60 Hz, and 1600 x 1200 – at distances greater than 1,000 feet (305 meters) – at refresh rates of 60 Hz, 75 Hz and 85 Hz. Paragon II supports automatic skew compensation and widescreen resolutions, such as 1440 x 900.
The Multiple Video feature enables up to 16 user stations to simultaneously receive the video output from multiple servers or servers with multiple video ports. And Video Redirect provides easy redirection of video to any user station within a Paragon II system – a natural fit for NOC displays, video walls, broadcast control rooms and more.
Integrated Smart Card Reader for Enhanced Security
Paragon II supports multifactor authentication access to Windows® and Linux® servers with smart card technology, which strengthens security, contributes to compliance with U.S. Homeland Security HSPD-12 and increases staff productivity by simplifying administrative tasks.
Partnering with SCM Microsystems, a leading supplier of standards-compliant smart card readers, Raritan integrated the SCM reader into our Paragon II Enhanced User Station (model numbers P2-EUST/C and P2-EUST/C-GOV). The Paragon II smart card reader solution supports CAC and PIV cards, and is FIPS 201 approved.
Audio and Digital Video Support for Media and Broadcast Applications
Paragon II includes a control interface for the NVISION® NV5128 audio/video router from Miranda Technologies – delivering not only audio to Paragon II users, but digital video as well. The control interface is built into Paragon Manager®, which continuously monitors usage of Paragon II, and through the NV5128, “switches” audio and/or digital video to users based on easy mapping that’ s configured by an administrator.
