OutLook switches are available in single or multiuser versions and are easily customized to fit your particular network and operating system needs. The OutLook switch system consists of the user station (your monitor, keyboard and mouse), the switch unit and the attached servers. You can attach additional, or secondary, switches to a primary switch (called cascading) to expand the OutLook system. This flexibility allows you to add capacity as your data center grows. OSCAR graphic user interface OutLook switches are equipped with OSCAR, our patented On-Screen Configuration and Activity Reporting interface. OSCAR features intuitive menus to configure your switch system and select computers. Computers can be identified by unique name or port number, allowing you to select server names that make sense to you. Point and click navigation with OSCAR allows for easy configuration and computer switching. Multiplatform support The OutLook ES series supports PS/2 and expands to support multiple platforms with adaptors for Apple, Sun, Unix, IBM RS/6000, HP 9000 and serial devices. Switch easily across platforms with OSCAR. Security Protect your system with a screen saver password. After a user-defined time, the screen saver mode will engage. Access is prohibited until the appropriate password is entered to reactivate the system. Quality video support The OutLook system supports analog VGA, SVGA and XGA video. The resolution you can achieve depends upon the length of cable separating your switch and servers. Achieve resolutions of up to 1600 x 1200 with a 7 foot cable and up to 800 x 600 with a 50 foot cable. Plug and play The OutLook system supports Display Data Channel Plug and Play, which automates configuration of the monitor and is compliant with the VESA DDC2B standard. 4 OutLook ES Series Installer/User Guide FLASH upgradable The OutLook ES is FLASH upgradable. This allows you to update your firmware at any time through a simple serial connection to ensure that your OutLook system is always running the most current version available. Built-in scanning capabilities A built-in scanning feature allows you to automatically monitor, or scan, connected computers without intervention. When keyboard activity is detected, scanning is suspended until all activity stops. Scanning then resumes with the next server in sequence. Cascading expansion Each Outlook ES switch supports up to 16 directly attached servers, depending on the model. If more than 16 are needed, multiple units can be cascaded together with one unit designated as the primary switch and additional units connected to it as secondary switches. This extra cascade of units allows you to attach up to 256 servers in one system.
