PLAYA VISTA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Belkin today announced the release of its new 19-inch Widescreen Rack Console. With its innovative, easy-to-use design, Belkin’s Widescreen Rack Console simplifies users’ IT duties with features that enable easy setup and use, while reducing energy consumption.
Due to budgetary restrictions, IT administrators are often forced to rely on large, less-efficient consoles with limited features, cumbersome configurations, and difficult installation processes. However, Belkin’s new Widescreen Rack Console provides a slim, sleek design with an enhanced viewing area, hassle-free installation, and trouble-free access.
“In today’s datacenter, IT administrators are often understaffed, overworked, and stuck servicing their systems on consoles that waste time and energy,” said Luis Artiz, director of product management at Belkin. “Designed with real-world enterprise usage in mind, our new consoles allow installation to be performed quickly by a single person and offer pain-free performance.”
Belkin’s Widescreen Rack Console’s features assist IT administrators in these major categories:
-
EASY INSTALLATION

- Simplified rail design with adjustable rails
- Built-in power supply—eliminates external-power-supply cable clutter

“With years of experience managing a datacenter with more than 110,000 square feet of equipment for my company and many others, it’s easy to see that Belkin’s Widescreen Rack Console will improve productivity by allowing more information to be viewed on its high-resolution, 19-inch screen,” said Ben Byassee, CIO of Streaming Media Hosting. “The new hybrid design, that incorporates metal components, gives the console a solid feel, allowing it to dependably hold up to the rigors of daily use.”
