Dominion KX III G2 combines secure remote hardware access, automation at scale and faster
outage recovery for today's IT environments
WEST HARTFORD, Conn., July 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Legrand, the global specialist in electrical and digital building infrastructures, today unveiled the Dominion KX III G2. Sold under Legrand's Raritan brand, this new generation of KVM-over-IP matrix is designed to help IT teams securely manage, troubleshoot and maintain critical systems as part of everyday IT operations, and rapidly recover them when outages, software failures or cyber incidents disrupt operations.
As IT environments continue to grow, many IT teams are being asked to manage more equipment spread across multiple locations – often with fewer staff and tighter response-time expectations. That reality has made secure remote access more important than ever. KVM, short for Keyboard, Video and Mouse, gives administrators the ability to interact with servers and connected devices as though they were physically in front of them, even when the operating system is unresponsive or common software-based remote tools are unavailable. In practice, many organizations rely on KVM every day to perform routine management tasks, support distributed teams and maintain visibility across remote locations.
That level of KVM remote access becomes critical during outages or cyber-related disruptions. Because KVM works below the operating system layer, technicians can reach BIOS settings, restart systems into safe mode and begin recovery remotely. In many cases, this helps IT teams cut Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR) from days to minutes while reducing the need to dispatch someone on-site.
"IT teams need consistent, secure control of their infrastructure every day and immediate access when systems go down – regardless of location, scale or what layer of the stack has failed," said Paul Mott, Product Management Director at Legrand. "The Dominion KX III G2 is designed to give organizations secure, reliable access to the equipment they depend on most, helping them recover faster and operate more efficiently."
Built on Legrand's Xerus™ architecture, which also powers the company's intelligent PDU portfolio, Dominion KX III G2 modernizes a trusted remote management platform with stronger performance, enhanced security and automation-ready capabilities.
Key capabilities include:
- Automation at Scale: For the first time in a Raritan KVM matrix, the Dominion KX III G2 introduces a management API designed for deployments ranging from 10 to 10,000 devices. It also includes a built-in Software Development Kit (SDK), allowing users to automate workflows such as mouse movement, video capture and custom integrations with internal tools.
- High-Performance Remote Access: The platform uses proprietary video compression technology to provide sharper visuals, richer color depth and lower bandwidth consumption. It supports smooth 60 fps performance at 1080p or 1920×1200 resolution with audio.
- Security by Design: Security features include a FIPS 140-2 certified cryptographic module, Secure Boot for firmware verification, and an integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for hardware-based credential protection.
- Flexible Deployment: Designed to support both small and large deployments, the Dominion KX III G2 is built to scale across LAN, WAN, internet, mobile or dial-up connections.
Beyond enterprise data centers, KVM technology is also widely used in healthcare, broadcast AV, testing labs and industrial environments where reliable remote access is essential to daily operations.
