INTRODUCTION 
 
The RACKMUX-UW15-8USB (formerly referred to as RACKMUX-15-USBV-8) is a KVM Drawer with USB KVM Switch 
(RACKMUX)  that combines a rackmount 15" TFT/ LCD monitor, keyboard, trackball mouse, and USB KVM switch (UNIMUX) in a 
space-saving 1RU industrial strength drawer.   The RACKMUX is equipped with a built-in switch function, which allows control of 
up to eight USB-enabled computers with a single keyboard, mouse and monitor.  
   
The onboard USB KVM swtich allows access to any Windows, MAC, or SUN USB CPUs from one monitor, USB keyboard and 
USB mouse (up to 8 CPUs).  Internal microprocessor circuitry allows all USB CPUs to be booted simultaneously without keyboard 
error.  Port selection is accomplished through On Screen Display (OSD) menus provided for switch control and security 
administration.
