Computer Interface Module (CIM) provides UTP-cabling connection between KVM switch and connected server/target system. Computer Interface Module converts video signals from the attached server for transmission over UTP (CAT-5/5e/6) cabling.

With built-in server identification memory, CIM retains the name assigned to the attached device, and allows connection to a crash-cart for emergency access from a local console.

Each CIM connects to the KVM ports of an individual server and delivers 'keep-alive' keyboard/mouse emulation ensuring that the server never hangs.

With a small and slim form factor, a CIM provides the added convenience of firmware upgradeability without interrupting the installed configuration.

This CIM is required for virtual media (BIOS access) and absolute mouse synchronization.

Good company to do business with, they respond quickly and really commit to serve.

Very good pricing, and the item arrived within a reasonable time frame undamaged.

Delivery was a little slow, but it got there in time for the installation. Turned out to be the wrong part. Katie was easy to work with to get an RMA number and return it.

Communication is excellent. They confirmed what might be an atypical order. Carried it out, in less time than advertised. (The advertised lead time was long, but written; their actual time to deliver was much less than that.) Their website search function worked well, though they did have an error on one of their website on the pictures, but the description was correct. I pointed this out to them, and they fixed it immediately, and the correction was live on their site the next day, that is responsive (and errors happen). For people, it’s how it goes after a nit that matters, these people seem to get that and work hard and professionally to do business. I am buying again.
