PS2/USB 8/16 Port Combo KVM Switch
Versatile Management
Toggle between clients using the front panel buttons, 
keyboard  hotkeys,  or  On-screen  Display  (OSD) 
menu.  The  on-screen  menu  allows  you  to  label 
each  channel  with  a  descriptive  name,  providing 
clear and easy navigation. A convenient Auto-Scan 
function allows you to automatically toggle between 
multiple  computers  sequentially  at  preset  intervals. 
The front panel LEDs assist with workstation/server 
status monitoring. Green LEDs indicate that systems 
are online, while separate red LEDs indicate when a 
particular system has been selected for management 
via console.
Convenient Installation
The sturdy metal chassis is mountable in a standard 
19” rack. Daisy chain multiple KVM switches together 
up  to  three  levels  deep;  cascaded  units  require  no 
special  configuration  and  automatically  configure 
themselves as master or slave. Target workstations 
can be connected via keyboard/mouse or PS/2 using 
a custom combo cable. A PS/2 or USB keyboard is 
emulated  on  each  terminal  allowing  all  attached 
computers  to  successfully  boot  without  keyboard 
errors. Hot-pluggable connections allow you to add 
devices  to  or  remove  them  from  the  KVM  switch 
without the need to shut it down.
