With its network connection, the web interface and DLM monitoring, the DL-MUX provides numerous features for mission-critical applications.

Product details

DLM monitoring function

The integrated DLM-Monitoring auto-transmits device status messages to syslog servers or sends them as SNMP. Manual monitoring is carried out over the web interface.

The DL-MUX monitoring function queries the following values:

Power supplies (on/off)
Temperature limit (above/below average)
Connection cable (interrupted/uninterrupted)
Computer (on/off)
DVI video input (available/not available)
Access settings (set preferences)

The DLM-Monitoring enables proactive monitoring instead of reactive maintenance.
