4-Port 1U Rack-Mount USB/PS2 KVM Switch with On-Screen Display
Connect {NumberOfPorts} Computers or Servers to a Single Monitor, Mouse and Keyboard
This rack-mount KVM switch lets you access, control, boot and reboot up to {NumberOfPorts} computers or servers at the same time. All devices share one built-in 19-inch LCD, touchpad, mouse and keyboard, allowing you to control the devices from the next room, next door or another continent.
Switching Between Computers Is Fast and Easy
Use the push buttons, hotkey commands or multi-lingual On-Screen Display (OSD) for quick and easy toggling between computers. You can use Auto Scan mode to scan all connected computers in five-second intervals automatically. Adding and removing computers can be done without powering down the hot-pluggable KVM switch.
Multi-Level Password Security Keeps Your Data Safe
The KVM enhances security by limiting access to an administrator and up to four local users. Two levels of password protection (Admin and User) help prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to connected servers.
Designed for Convenient Mounting with Included Hardware
The heavy-duty steel housing comes with mounting hardware for 1U installation in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack. Plug-and-play setup means no software installation is required. The KVM is compatible with all major operating systems.
