IP KVM DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18249294 titled 'IP KVM DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an internet protocol (IP) keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) device that includes various components such as USB port, display port, network port, Bluetooth transceiver, processor, and memory. The device is designed to be connected to a host device and a network, and it can establish a Bluetooth connection with a client device. The memory stores a unique identifier that is transmitted to the client device via Bluetooth, allowing the client device to establish a remote connection with the IP KVM device.

• The IP KVM device includes a USB port, display port, network port, Bluetooth transceiver, processor, and memory.
• It can be connected to a host device and a network.
• The device can establish a Bluetooth connection with a client device.
• The memory stores a unique identifier that is transmitted to the client device via Bluetooth.
• The unique identifier is used by the client device to establish a remote connection with the IP KVM device.

Potential Applications

• Remote management and control of computers and servers.
• Remote troubleshooting and maintenance of computer systems.
• Remote access to computer systems for telecommuting or remote work.
• Centralized control and management of multiple computer systems.

Problems Solved

• Simplifies remote access and control of computer systems.
• Eliminates the need for physical presence or direct connection to the computer system.
• Provides flexibility and convenience in managing and accessing computer systems remotely.

Benefits

• Enables efficient and convenient remote management of computer systems.
• Reduces the need for on-site visits and physical access to computer systems.
• Increases productivity by allowing remote work and troubleshooting.
• Provides centralized control and management of multiple computer systems.

Original Abstract Submitted

One example of an internet protocol (IP) keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) device includes a universal serial bus (USB) port, a display port, a network port, a Bluetooth transceiver, a processor, and a memory. The USB port is to be communicatively coupled to a host device. The display port is to be communicatively coupled to the host device. The network port is to be communicatively coupled to a network. The processor is communicatively coupled to the USB port, the display port, the network port, and the Bluetooth transceiver. The memory stores a unique identifier to be transmitted to a client device via Bluetooth in response to establishing a Bluetooth connection between the client device and the IP KVM device. The unique identifier is used by the client device to establish a remote connection to the IP KVM device.
