AMI MegaRAC G4 Remote Server Management Controller

The AMI MegaRAC G4 is a PCI-based remote management controller which can be used in any server with a free PCI slot for sophisticated remote management.   The G4 provides out-of-band, lights-out manageability for BIOS-level system access and control, even when the OS is unavailable or the system is powered down.  A 100% OS independent solution, G4 PCI card has the ability to provide high quality and high performance KVM redirection over the Internet. The MegaRAC G4 does not require any drivers or agents to be installed at the managed server.

MegaRAC G4 can control reset and power to the motherboard, as well as read status information through IPMI, allowing the remote to fully manage and monitor the host system.  Additionally, the G4 can emulate a Mass Storage Device, such as a floppy, CDROM or hard-drive and make installation of programs remotely possible.
