Want the option of using either a PS/2

®

or USB keyboard

and mouse to control a number of PS/2 and USB servers? 
The 8- and 16-port ServSwitch

™

EC for PS/2 and USB Servers

makes it all possible.

Perfect for areas where you have a mix of servers and

console control devices, this ServSwitch has a rear-panel slide
switch that you use to select either PS/2 or USB console mode.

Models are available for switching between 4, 8, or 16

servers from a single console. To expand your switching
platform to include additional servers—up to 136 in all with
the 16-port model—simply cascade units in a master-slave
configuration.

Ideal for applications where you have a limited amount of

space, the 1U-high ServSwitch EC can be used on the desktop.
As an added space-saving feature, the switch requires just 
one HD15 connector for each server connection. Keyboard,
monitor, and mouse circuitry is built into a single connector. 

The ServSwitch EC for PS/2 and USB Servers and PS/2 or USB

Consoles also has on-screen display (OSD) features for switching
between servers and managing server connections. Navigate
through the OSD menus using a function key, and use the
OSD interface to view each port’s connection status, lock 
a server from unauthorized access, and even assign server
names that are up to 14 characters long. The switch stores 
all name entries in non-volatile memory.

You can also switch servers by pushing front-panel buttons

or by using a sequence of hotkeys. Or let the switch do it
automatically for you with its AutoScan function, which
enables the ServSwitch EC to scan and switch between servers
at an interval you determine. When AutoScan detects any
keyboard or mouse activity, it suspends the scanning until
activity stops, then resumes with the next computer in
sequence. 

With video enhancement technology that ensures superb

quality and resolutions up to 1920 x 1440, the ServSwitch EC 
is DDC2B compatible, so you can use it with the latest digital
monitors. What’s more, the switch is operating system
independent and transparent to all applications.
