As digital infrastructure expands across cloud, edge, and on-premise environments, resilience and agility have become operational priorities. Secure, out-of-band remote access is no longer just an IT convenience – it’s a strategic capability that reduces downtime, safeguards continuity, and enables teams to manage critical systems from anywhere.
To address this need, the CN800, a compact 0U, hardware-based KVM over IP solution, delivers secure, always-available, BIOS-level remote access to a single server or computer – without the need for software installation. Using standard TCP/IP communication over a Cat 5e/6 connection, it provides full, secure control of the connected system via WinClient and JavaClient across an intranet or remotely from anywhere.
With native VGA support – still the most common display interface in server hardware – the CN800 ensures broad compatibility and reliable remote management, all without adding rack overhead or operational complexity.
The CN800 KVM over IP Mini empowers administrators with full remote control and BIOS-level access to the connected server or computer. Transmitting only keyboard, video, and mouse signals, this secure, hardware-based solution functions as a virtual remote desktop without exposing the system to software-level vulnerabilities.
The CN800 blends perfectly into any workspace environment (e.g., under the desk) with its compact, easy-hook design, de-cluttering desktop space for improved productivity. This makes it ideal for any office or work-from-home setup.
The CN800 supports VGA input resolutions up to 1920 × 1200 @ 60 Hz with 24-bit color depth, ensuring clear, responsive video content for every remote session.
Remote operations are protected by TLS 1.2 and 256-bit AES data encryption, ensuring that virtual media functions, such as firmware upgrades, diagnostics, and software patching, remain as secure and reliable as if performed locally, maintaining total data integrity
Using standard TCP/IP communication over a Cat 5e/6 connection, the CN800 provides full and secure control of the connected system – whether Windows, macOS X, Linux, or Sun – through WinClient or JavaClient, either across an intranet or remotely from anywhere.
With its compact, lightweight 0U design (weighing only 170 grams) and a unique hook for easy rack placement – whether fastened with a cable tie or secured using a cage nut – the CN800 delivers reliable server management with flexible, space-efficient deployment, ideal for modern data centers and mobile IT environments
With secure remote access at its core, the CN800 is ideal for IT administrators and professionals seeking an effective, efficient solution for server management across data centers, production lines, or remote work environments.
Features:
The ATEN CN800 offers superior video quality with HD resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz, facilitating easier KVM access. The CN800 USB VGA KVM over IP Mini provides “over-IP” access control for conventional KVM switches lacking built-in over-IP functionality. It enables system operators to monitor and access computers remotely using Windows and Java-based application programs. The CN800 connects to an intranet, either LAN or WAN simply by using an industry-standard Cat 5e/6 cable and to a target computer or server. WinClient and JavaClient are available for remote access, enabling IP connection and login from anywhere over the internet.
The ATEN CN800 uses the standard TCP/IP protocols for communication. It allows the connected server or computer to be accessed from any computer over the internet – whether that computer is located down the hall, in other areas of the country, or branch offices in other parts of the world. The CN800 provides a fast, reliable, and cost-effective way to remotely access and manage widely distributed multiple computer installations.
