NTI NODEMUX SERIES UNIVERSAL KVM SWITCH

INTRODUCTION

The NTI ST-2U 2-PORT UNIVERSAL KVM Switch allows a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse to communicate directly with any two PC, MAC or SUN CPUs connected to the switch. These CPUs can be file servers, network managers, etc. The microprocessor driven circuitry in the NTI switch allows all CPUs to boot simultaneously without keyboard or mouse error.

Available Options

Built-in 13W3 video port- for use with SUN multi-scan monitors- Add "-13W3" to the part number (i.e. ST-2U-13W3)

Built-in USB type B ports to connect to USB compatible CPUs-Add "-U" to the part number (i.e. ST-2U-U)

Built-in serial port- for use with touch screen monitors. Add "-TS" to the part number (i.e. ST-2U-TS)

Audio support to enable user to connect stereo speakers to receive audio signals from connected CPUs- add "-A" to the part number (i.e. ST-2U-A)

RS232 support for alternative control using RS232 connection. Add "-RS" to the part number (i.e. ST-2U-RS)

Dual Video option supports CPUs with two video outputs. Add "-DV" to the part number (i.e.ST-2U-DV)
