    Abstract: A remotely full control device. The device uses a remote monitor to control and monitor computers on a LAN through a WAN to handle abnormal operations in any computer(s) on the LAN. The remotely full control device includes: a WAN connection interface; a LAN connection interface; a KVM input and output interface; an audio input and output interface; and a power control signal generator. The WAN connection interface goes online to a WAN to receive a control signal from a remote monitor. The LAN connection interface goes online to a LAN having multiple computers. The KVM input and output interface transfers and receives data from the multiple computers. The audio input and output interface transfers and receives signals from voice devices of the multiple computers, and the power control signal generator uses a Wake-On-LAN technique to wake up one or more assigned computers. The invention further includes an image input device to help the remote monitor monitoring the multiple computers.

  • Publication number: 20030120756
    Abstract: A mobile storage device for a network. The device integrates with the network interface technique to share and monitor network resources concurrently without the use of installing additional drivers. The device includes: a storage unit, to store data; a network interface, to provide communication control between the storage unit and other external devices; a transmission medium, to connect the network interface to an external computer having a network browser to receive an input data access request from the network browser and display the data stored in the storage unit on the network browser in response to the data access request. The device further includes an operating system to send a data access control signal and a processor to perform the data access control. Standard network interface and protocols such as Ethernet and TCP/IP, can be used for the network interface.

  • Publication number: 20030117500
    Abstract: A network video recording system. The system includes at least one video server, at least one network storage device, and a monitoring device. The video server controls a video camera in order to obtain video image data by video recording, and sends the data via a network. The network storage device is connected to the video server with the network to receive the video image data sent by the same via the network and stores the video image data. The monitoring device is connected to the video server and the network storage device with the network for monitoring the video image data sent by the video server. The monitoring device of the present invention may be used as a monitoring interface, or control the network storage device to send the video image data stored therein to the monitoring device for required inspection.

  • Publication number: 20030041278
    Abstract: The present invention provides a disk array control apparatus comprising a disk array control unit, an interface converter and a network interface unit. The disk array control unit has a parallel interface for transmitting and receiving a plurality of parallel signals and a shared bus interface for transmitting and receiving stored data. The interface converter converts the parallel signals into corresponding differential signals when receiving the parallel signals from the disk array control unit, and converts a plurality of external differential signals into the corresponding parallel signals when the disk array control unit receiving data from the parallel interface. The network interface unit has a network I/O port connecting with an external network. The network interface unit is also connected to the shared bus interface.

  • Publication number: 20030028675
    Abstract: A centralized network storage system comprises a plurality of diskless clients and a server. A transforming device in the client, such as an interface card installed in the IDE or PCI expansion slot of the client, receives a hard disk access command from the client and packs the identity number and the command into a package and delivers the package to a server. A centralized storage device in the server is divided into a plurality of storage areas, each of which respectively corresponds to one of the clients.
