 PROFILE
Avocent tries to give network administrators what they really need -- the ability to be in multiple places at once. The result of a 2000 merger of Apex with rival Cybex Computer Products, Avocent makes switching systems used to manage multiple servers from a single computer screen. Its LongView extension products let computer users locate their mouse, monitor, keyboard, and other peripherals up to 500 feet away from their CPU using twisted pair cable. The company sells its products primarily to manufacturers such as Compaq, IBM, and Microsoft, and through distributors including Ingram Micro and Tech Data.
