Introduction
Overview
The KH0116 KVM Switch is a control units that allow access to multiple 
computers from a single KVM (keyboard, monitor, and mouse) console. 
Before the development of sophisticated KVM switches, the only way to 
control large-scale multiple computer configurations from a single console was 
through a complex and costly network system. Now, with the KH0116, you can 
easily access multiple computers in a cost effective manner.
A single KH0116 can control up to 16 computers. As many as 31 additional 
KH0116 can be daisy chained to each other, so that up to 512 computers can 
all be controlled from a single keyboard-monitor-mouse console.
A custom ASIC (patent pending) provides an auto-sensing function that 
recognizes the position of each station on the chain, eliminating the need to 
manually set the position with DIP switches. A seven segment front panel LED 
displays each Station's position for easy identification.
For further convenience, the KH0116 features high density 15 pin connectors 
instead of the usual 25 pin connectors. This space-saving innovation allows a 
full, 16 port switch, to be installed in a 1U system rack.
Your KH0116 investment is protected by an included Firmware Upgrade 
Utility
. You can stay current with the latest functionality improvements by 
downloading firmware update files from our website as they become available, 
and using the utility to quickly and conveniently perform the upgrade. 
Setting up the KH0116 is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate 
ports is all that is entailed. Because the KH0116 intercepts keyboard input 
directly, there is no software to configure, so there is no need to get involved 
in complex installation routines or be concerned with incompatibility 
problems.
