Re: [foxboro] Sun KVM & Serial extenders

We have remotely installed 51 series workstations that were
implemented by using a pair of NCNIs ( A and B ). The NCNI
is a two Port switch, one copper and one fiber. We used=20
some media converters on the copper to make them fiber and
ran this fiber over a half a mile. On the other end we used=20
an RCNI where the WP was locally mounted so there was no=20
need for a KVM or GCIO extenders.

Subject: [foxboro] Sun KVM & Serial extenders

Hi all,

I'm looking at extending some Sun I/A workstations to a new control
room as a temporary measure until I can take the permanent solution of
adding new mesh workstations in the new control room.  I can't just
move the workstations as my node is already extended and I'd rather
not add a new CBLAN node just for this.

I'd be keen to hear what brands/models of KVM extender others are
using with the 51 series boxes.  I'm especially eager to hear if
you're also extending the GCIO/Annunciator keyboards.

I'm considering the Rose Electronics CrystalView CAT5 extenders for
Sun with serial.  CRK-2P/SUN/AUD.

My new control room is about 100m from the Sun boxes.

Thanks,

Kevin FitzGerrell
