VertivAvocent ADX Ecosystem provides fast, seamless and highly secure remote management of IT assets.

Vertiv, a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, has introduced the Vertiv Avocent ADX Ecosystem, a next-generation IT management platform that meets the ever-changing needs of the data centre. The Avocent ADX Ecosystem is a building block of devices and software designed for today’s more complex, hybrid network architectures and to meet the demands of remote workforces and will be available in all world regions in 2021.

Building on the Avocent foundation and thought leadership that customers have trusted for years, the new Avocent ADX Ecosystem is designed for use in enterprise, Edge, cloud and colocation environments. It supports a secure and robust remote work experience by allowing workers to access and control data quickly and seamlessly, such as required by advanced engineering and design, video editing and other high resolution streaming applications. The Avocent ADX Ecosystem includes the fastest and most feature-rich 4K KVM on a single device with the most expansive management of IT devices in the market.

The Avocent ADX Ecosystem is built on a common architecture, with open standards, platforms and APIs that users require, while enabling fast, secure and scalable deployments of IT devices from the enterprise to edge. Avocent ADX Ecosystem leverages Avocent Core Insight (Avocent ACI) technology to further enhance communication to Redfish enabled devices. These technologies allow Avocent ADX to overcome the most persistent obstacles to remote management of distributed and hybrid architectures, including scaling systems to match network growth, enabling secure access for designated users and providing high-resolution video capabilities to match modern technologies, including USB-C connectors.

“Customers from Edge to enterprise, cloud and colo, are looking for a more robust way to securely access systems, as remote work and system management have expanded dramatically over the past two years,” said Rob Brothers, Program VP, Data Centre & Support Services at IDC. “Vertiv is addressing those scalable needs with its new Avocent ADX platform.”

The Avocent ADX Ecosystem includes several individual components, each of which can be deployed independently or in tandem, for a more robust user experience. The platform offers secure and efficient management and control of virtual and physical IT infrastructure and manages both KVM and serial sessions for up to 100 or more simultaneous users; the rack manager resiliently provides IP consolidation for diverse devices, as well as a path to scalability; and the remote 4K KVM increases productivity and operates at faster speeds and with higher bandwidth compared to competitive standard and 4K KVM.

The Avocent ADX Ecosystem will be available at the end of Q3 2021. For information on Avocent ADX Ecosystem and other IT management solutions from Vertiv, visit Vertiv.com
