Built on Avocent's field-proven matrix switching design, the Avocent AMX5000 is an 8x32 switch that provides a powerful KVM solution with advanced manageability. The Avocent AMX5000 highly scalable architecture easily accommodates additional servers and users, which makes the Avocent AMX5000 particularly effective in evolving server installations. Avocent's AMWorks software is included with the Avocent AMX5000 switch for central administration. | | 
The Avocent AMX5100 user station connects to the user's multi-platform peripherals and sends the KVM signals over an industry standard CAT 5 cable to Avocent's Avocent AMX5000 matrix switch. Avocent AMX5100's design automatically compensates for varying cable types and lengths and adjusts for signal losses each time a switch is made to the server.

The AMWorks Java-based system administration tool supports customized user profiles and multi-level security. AMWorks allows system administrators to build a user database for multi-level access to servers with password protection for each user. The database is centrally stored and can be downloaded to the Avocent AMX5000 matrix switch via the network connection port. | | 
The AMIQ enhanced CAT 5 cable interface is the new choice for flexibility and performance in robust IT environments. The CAT 5 design and video technology eliminate bulky cabling connections and delivers real-time, high bandwidth video for KVM switching up to 1,000 feet away from the server. The AMIQ's built-in memory eases configuration by assigning and retaining unique server identification codes for each attached server. |
