Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a StarTech.com 4-Port IP KVM Switch with

USB Console. The SV441DUSBI revolutionizes remote server manage-

ment by combining our industry-leading, third generation Server Remote

Control technology with a proven Enterprise class digital KVM switch.

The SV441DUSBI empowers you to securely manage up to four comput-

ers remotely from almost anywhere using the internet or your local area

network (LAN). Unlike software solutions that require installation and work

through your server’s operating system, the SV441DUSBI gives you BIOS

level control and full interaction with your system’s boot process. Control

does not come at the expense of security: SSH tunneling, SSL encryp-

tion, RADIUS authentication, and a conﬁgurable ﬁrewall are all included

to ensure that your network stays secure. Its standardized 1U rack-mount-

able metal chassis allows easy installation in your existing rack or cabinet

solution.

Server Remote Control is about more than just servers. Using the Serial

Remote Interface Module (RPORT), you can interact with virtually any

device that uses a RS-232 serial terminal interface like routers, switches,

environmental controls, alarm systems, and more. You can also use

StarTech.com’s 8 outlet Remote Power Module (PCM815SHNA) to power

computers and equipment on an off using an interactive menu.

The SV441DUSBI is the perfect solution for any organization that

demands secure, ﬂexible, local and remote administration of its critical

systems.
