Having reviewed the software that Adder Technology Ltd develops for use in its range of high-performance KVM extenders and switches, we are able to state that none of our proprietary software includes the Log4j library and therefore none of Adder’s products are affected by the Apache Log4j 2 Vulnerability Notice - CVE-2021-44228.

Adder makes no warrant as to the impact of this potential vulnerability on third-party equipment or software packages and recommends that advice be sought directly from the manufactures of these.

The API (Application Programming Interface) for the Redundant Power Supply (RED-PSU) is now available. There is no need to upgrade the firmware, it is available on v1.0 and above.

The following products are end of life with immediate effect. The EOL part numbers and recommended replacements are shown in the following table.

A little-known feature on the AV4PRO is that the hotkeys will filter down to cascaded AV4PRO switches.

Be careful if you are using the 192.168.1.x network range for endpoints. If a transmitter or receiver is given 192.168.1.42, it cannot be added to the AIM Manager. This is because 192.168.1.42 is used for the Management port and causes the SSL security/authentication to fail.

When upgrading the firmware, the Event and Connection log archives are cleared.
