Unlock unparalleled remote control of critical computing resources with the ATEN KE6900AIT DVI-I Single Display KVM over IP Transmitter with Internet Access. This high-performance, IP-based transmitter is purpose-built for secure, flexible, and scalable remote management. When paired with ATEN receivers such as the KE6900AR, it enables IT teams to access a host computer’s console from a distant location via USB peripherals and a display—over both intranet and internet. In data centers, laboratories, or remote offices, the KE6900AIT delivers seamless, centralized access to servers and workstations, dramatically reducing travel time, accelerating maintenance cycles, and improving uptime. Designed to support modern IT workflows, it combines robust hardware, straightforward networking, and a user-friendly management interface to deliver reliable, latency-conscious remote KVM control without compromising security or performance.

• Remote KVM over IP: Access a connected PC from anywhere on your intranet or the internet using a USB keyboard, USB mouse, and a DVI monitor. The KE6900AIT establishes secure, continuous sessions so administrators can diagnose, reconfigure, or update systems without being physically present at the server rack.
• DVI-I Single Display output: The transmitter provides a single-display DVI-I video channel, offering broad compatibility with a wide range of monitors and display devices. The DVI-I interface supports digital video with the potential for analog signals through the same connector, enabling flexible connection options in mixed-display environments.
• Easy integration with receivers: When used with ATEN KE6900AR receivers, the KE6900AIT extends console access across multiple locations. This pairing creates a scalable KVM over IP solution for distributed data centers, remote labs, or branch offices, enabling a centralized management model while preserving local user experience at each site.
• IP-based operation for intranet and internet access: Built for flexible deployment over standard Ethernet networks, the KE6900AIT supports remote access sessions across both local networks and secure remote connections over the internet. This makes it an ideal foundation for disaster recovery planning, off-site maintenance, and global IT support teams.
• Plug-and-manage design for administrators: The transmitter is engineered for easy installation, ongoing maintenance, and straightforward administration. Its compact form factor, clear status indicators, and web-based management simplify configuration, user access control, and firmware updates, reducing downtime and expanding control capabilities for IT staff.

how to install ATEN KE6900AIT DVI-I Single Display KVM over IP Transmitter with Internet Access

Setting up the KE6900AIT is designed to be straightforward, enabling quick deployment in complex IT environments. Follow these steps to establish reliable remote console access to your servers and workstations. Note that firmware versions and specific interfaces may vary; always refer to the latest official manual for precise instructions.

• Prepare and plan: Verify that you have a compatible host computer with a DVI video output and available USB keyboard and USB mouse connections. Confirm that you have access to a functioning network with a DHCP or static IP setup for the KE6900AIT and a KE6900AR receiver for remote sites.
• Connect the local host to the transmitter: Attach the host computer’s DVI output to the KE6900AIT’s DVI input. Plug the USB keyboard and USB mouse into the transmitter’s USB ports. Connect the transmitter to power and then connect its Ethernet port to your local network or switch.
• Access the transmitter management interface: Power up the device and locate its IP address on your network. Open a web browser and log into the web-based management interface. If needed, configure initial network settings (IP address, gateway, DNS) and enable secure access controls.
• Pair with remote receivers: Install and power on KE6900AR receivers at remote locations. Connect the remote USB peripherals and display to each receiver. In the transmitter’s management interface, create and configure pairing links between the KE6900AIT and the remote receivers, establishing trusted sessions for remote control.
• Test and validate: From a local or remote workstation, initiate a KVM session via the receiver at the remote location. Verify that the keyboard, mouse, and DVI monitor respond correctly to the host computer. Check network latency, session stability, and access permissions. Fine-tune user accounts, session policies, and security settings as needed.

Frequently asked questions

• What is the KE6900AIT used for? It is an IP-based KVM transmitter that enables remote console access to a host computer when used with compatible receivers, allowing control of USB peripherals and a display over intranet or internet.
• What devices work with KE6900AIT? The KE6900AIT is designed to work with ATEN KE6900AR receivers to extend remote console access to distant locations, enabling centralized management across multiple sites.
• What peripherals are supported? Local USB keyboard and USB mouse connect to the transmitter, while the distant console at the receiver side provides access to the host computer’s USB devices and display. This supports typical USB HID devices used for server management.
• How do I access the remote console? Use the transmitter’s web-based management interface to configure the session settings, then connect from the remote receiver’s console to the host computer. A session can be started on demand or scheduled as part of maintenance windows.
• Can KE6900AIT operate over the internet? Yes, it supports remote access over both intranet and internet connections, provided the network and security configurations allow secure remote sessions. Ensure appropriate firewall rules and VPN or secure tunnel practices are in place for protection.
• What considerations are there for security? Implement strong authentication, role-based access control, encrypted sessions where available, and regular firmware updates. Limit remote access to authorized personnel and monitor session activity through the management interface.
