Paragon II 42-port KVM

The Raritan P2-UMT442 is a Cat5-based KVM switch designed for data-centre administrators who need centralised control over many servers from a small number of workstations. It provides 42 server ports and four console ports, allowing up to four simultaneous users to manage connected systems independently. The unit fits a standard 1U rack height of 1.75 inches and weighs 10.13 lbs.

42 servers with 1600 x 1200 video

Each of the 42 RJ-45 server ports supports analog and digital video up to 1600 x 1200 resolution, giving clear display output for legacy and current platforms. The four console ports share the same video ceiling, so every active user sees the same maximum resolution. Headroom ends at that resolution; higher-definition sources will be downscaled or require a different switch tier.

Passive cooling in 1U form factor

The chassis relies on passive airflow within a 1U rack slot measuring 17.32 inches wide by 11.41 inches deep, so it adds no fan noise to the server room. Power draw remains low because the switch only routes keyboard, video and mouse signals without driving displays or peripherals. Thermal load is negligible under normal switching operations.

Questions about this item

Will the 42 RJ-45 server ports work with the Cat5 cabling I already have in the rack?

The switch uses RJ-45 server ports designed for Cat5 connections, so existing Cat5 cables can be used to link up to 42 servers.

How can I confirm the 1600 x 1200 video output is active on all four console ports after installation?

Connect a monitor to each of the four RJ-45 console ports and verify the on-screen display shows a stable 1600 x 1200 resolution signal.

Does the unit ship with the four console dongles and server cables, or must I purchase them separately?

The product specifications list only the switch chassis with 42 server ports and four console ports; console dongles and server cables are not included.
