Description
The GCN1000 provides remote access to a computer or compatible KVM switch**, allowing you to control or
monitor it from literally anywhere in the world. An internet connection, a browser, and the current IP address of
your router is all that is required.
The unit is completely hardware-based, eliminating the need for a working operating system on the local
computer in order to function. Communication between the GCN1000 and the remote computer takes place over
a network (or the internet). This makes the GCN1000 ideal for remote file transfer, or troubleshooting computers
that do not boot properly, for changing BIOS settings, or for selecting an operating system in a multiple-boot
situation. After connecting to a remote computer with the GCN1000, performing tasks on the remote computer is
virtually identical to sitting at the machine itself.
The browser-based Administrator Utility is used to configure the system. The utility can be used to limit access by
remote computers; manage users; and maintain the system with firmware and software updates.
The two applications used to access the GCN1000 are run from the unit itself, removing the need to install
software on either the host or client PCs. The two access applications, a Windows client working with DirectX 7,
and a Java client using Java2, are functionally identical. The only difference is the Virtual Media port (a File
transfer utility), which functions exclusively through Windows. The Java client is flexible enough to work with
Linux, Unix, Novell, Windows, and DOS.
The unit supports up to eight users of which two may be logged on simultaneously (only one operator has
control the remote computer). Message board provisions are included to aid in collaborative troubleshooting, and
to alleviate access conflicts between users.
The GCN1000 incorporates a USB2.0 Virtual Media port which sends data through the GCN1000 to the remote
computer. The Virtual Media port acts as a virtual USB port, allowing the user to attach a USB flash drive and
use it as though it were plugged into a local USB port. File transfer and media streaming are made possible by
the Virtual Media port (booting is not possible from the Virtual Media port).
The Virtual Media feature for file transfers is available exclusively through the Windows Client. The Java Client
does not support the Virtual Media feature, but adds flexibility by providing compatibility with other operating
systems
The GCN1000's security is provided by a user name and password logon consisting of a minimum of 6 to a
maximum of 16 characters and SSL 128bit Encryption
Once successfully logged in and connected, your screen not only displays the remote computer's desktop
including all running applications, but also gives you control of those applications almost as if you were sitting at
the remote computer.
Your GCN1000 investment is protected by a Firmware Upgrade Utility. You can stay current with the latest
functional improvements by downloading firmware update files from our website as they become available, and
then using the utility to quickly and conveniently perform the upgrade.
