A system includes multiple KVM switches, multiple user consoles and a recording system connected via a network. Each KVM switch facilitates interactions between user consoles and selected servers connected its server ports. The KVM switch transmits keyboard, mouse and video data exchanged between user consoles and servers, and administrative data, to the recording system. The recording system records the keyboard, mouse, video and administrative data, and detects trigger events based on such data. Trigger events include predefined keywords, mouse operations, video images, user IDs and server IDs, or combinations thereof. When a trigger event is detected, the recording system automatically transmits monitoring information to an administrative console via the network. The monitoring information may include combined video data containing information about keyboard and mouse actions superimposed on desktop images. The administrative console may also request specific recorded data for review. The recording system may employ a master-slave configuration.

System and method for recording and monitoring user interactions with a server

Disclosed is a keyboard-video-mouse switch capable of detecting keyword input and recording video data from a computer and keyboard input data from a console and method thereof. The keyboard-video-mouse switch includes a keyword filter and a capture unit. The keyword filter detects whether a predetermined keyword is inputted from the console into the computer and the capture unit records video data if the predetermined keyword is detected. Moreover, the capture unit may record keyboard input data for a complete monitor. The keyboard-video-mouse switch of the present invention further includes an alarm and a keyword database. The alarm will alarm an administrator when the predetermined keyword is detected. The keyword database stores data of keystroke combinations, which is defined as predetermined keyword data for at least one input method.

A matrix architecture for KVM extenders connecting a plurality of console terminals and a plurality of computers. The matrix architecture for KVM extenders includes a plurality of first extenders and a plurality of second extenders. The first extenders transform keyboard, mouse analog signals into keyboard, mouse data packets and transform video data packets into video signals for console terminals. The second extenders transform video signals into video data packets and transform keyboard, mouse data packets into keyboard, mouse analog signals. The broadcasters broadcast keyboard, video, mouse data packets, each having a source address and a target address to couple computers to console terminals by broadcasting video data packets from second extenders to first extenders and to couple console terminals to computers by broadcasting keyboard, mouse data packets from first extenders to second extenders.

A communicating system suitable for a repeater and communicating method thereof are described. The communicating system comprises a receiving unit, a delay module, a transmitting unit and a control unit. The receiving unit transmits a first signal based on a KB/MS input signal. The delay module is coupled to the receiving unit and delays the first signal from the receiving unit in order to generate a second signal. The second signal has a first phase difference in comparison with the first signal. The transmitting unit is coupled to the delay module and the control unit. The transmitting unit transmits a KB/MS output signal based on the second signal while the control unit controls the transmitting unit via a control signal. Specifically, the control unit is coupled to the receiving unit, the delay module and the transmitting unit such that the control unit generates the control signal based on the first signal from the receiving unit and controls the transmitting unit by inputting the control signal into the transmitting unit. That is, the control signal of the control unit triggers the transmitting unit to dominate output control of the delayed second signal of transmitting unit. The control signal generated by the control unit has a second phase difference in comparison with the first signal.

Communicating system and method thereof

A method and system of controlling powers of a plurality of servers with a power control command mechanism. The system for controlling powers of a plurality of servers compatible with an intelligent platform management interface comprises a console unit, a command mechanism and a plurality of control modules. The console unit generates a request to control a plurality of powers of the servers. The command mechanism coupled to the console unit transforms the request coming from the console unit into a plurality of commands and sends the commands to the servers sequentially; and the control modules coupled to the command mechanism and corresponding to the servers respectively implement the commands to control the powers of the servers sequentially.
