ATEN Technology ACS-1602 user manual Overview

Overview

The Master View ACS-1602 ADC KVM Switch is a two port control unit that allows access to two ADC equipped Macintosh systems from a single ADC console (USB keyboard, USB mouse, and ADC display).

DVI equipped PCs can also be accessed from the ADC console with the use of an ADC to DVI adapter.

ADC (Apple Display Connector) is a digital interface implementation that is proprietary to Apple® Computer. Apple’s Cinema and Studio flat panel displays utilize the ADC connector interface with the latest Mac systems. The ACS-1602 supports both of those displays. It also supports analog CRT ADC monitors.

Setup is fast and easy; plugging the ADC cables into their appropriate ports is all that is entailed. There is no software to configure, no installation routines, and no incompatibility problems.

The digital video, USB, and power signals are transported via the single ADC cable. This eliminates the desktop clutter associated with traditional cable hookups, and makes for a neat and tidy workspace.

Access to the two computers is quick and convenient. Pressing the push button Port Selection Switch located on the unit’s top panel toggles the KVM focus between them.

There is no better way to save time and money than with a Master View ACS-1602 installation. By allowing a single console to manage both computers, the ACS-1602 eliminates the expense of purchasing a separate keyboard, video display, and mouse for each one. Additionally, it saves the extra space and energy costs that they would require, and eliminates the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly having to move from one computer to the other.
