About the AMIQ module
The AMIQ module enhanced CAT 5 cable
design eliminates complex cabling connections
in your switching system. A single module
delivers real-time, high bandwidth video for
KVM switching up to 1,000 feet away from
the server. The AMIQ module’s advanced
technology provides built-in memory and
security, enabling you to store server names and
prohibit unauthorized access to the server from
the CAT 5 cabling.
The AMIQ module draws its power from the
server and supports Keep Alive functionality,
enabling your server to operate properly with or
without connectivity to the AMX switch. Keep
Alive functionality is suspended during upgrade.
For additional information
For further instructions on hardware, software
and security configuration, please refer to the
AMX Series Installer/User Guide included with
the AMX switch.
