HMX Management Appliance for KVM control

The Avocent HMXMGR-001 is a new serial-type KVM management appliance designed for centralised administration of HMX high-performance KVM extenders and switches. It suits IT teams that need a dedicated hardware platform to configure, monitor and maintain large-scale KVM deployments from a single point.

Suited for HMX-centric environments.

This appliance targets organisations already running Avocent HMX infrastructure who require a purpose-built manager for firmware updates, user-access policies and system diagnostics. Buyers who only need a basic KVM switch for a single rack or desk, or who use a different KVM ecosystem, should look at dedicated switch hardware instead.

Serial management interface with 260 W power supply

The unit provides a serial management interface and an internal AC power supply rated for 100-240 VAC input, delivering up to 260 W across +3.3 V, +5 V, +12 V and -12 V rails. Its 1.7 in height, 16.8 in width and 14 in depth allow installation in standard equipment racks where space and power budget are defined by these exact dimensions.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the HMXMGR-001 is operating correctly after installation?

The unit powers on when connected to a 100-240 VAC supply drawing 1.1 A at 5 VDC, and its internal rails deliver +3.3 V at 15 A, +5 V at 25 A, +12 V at 18 A and -12 V at 1 A up to 260 W total.

What ships with the HMXMGR-001 and what must I source separately?

The appliance itself is supplied; rack-mount brackets, serial cables, power cords and any HMX extender modules are not included and must be purchased separately.

Which HMXMGR model should I choose for my deployment?

Two part numbers exist — HMXMGR-001 and HMXMGR-G2-001 — both share the same 1.7 in height, 16.8 in width, 14 in depth and 260 W power rating; select the G2 variant only if your infrastructure specifically requires the updated revision.
