Introduction
Overview
The CL6700 Single Rail DVI LCD Console is a KVM control unit featuring an integrated 19" DVI LCD panel, a full keyboard, and a touch pad in a 1U rack- mountable sliding housing with an AC based input power source and audio support.
The CL6700 serves as the front end sliding console for compatible DVI KVM switches. This means users who already have a compatible KVM switch can take advantage of the space saving and efficiency benefits of the sliding console module without having to purchase a KVM switch module.
The CL6700’s single rail design allows the LCD monitor and keyboard/touch pad modules to operate independently of each other. For added convenience, a port for an external USB mouse is provided on the unit’s front panel, while ports for an extra console (USB mouse, USB keyboard, DVI monitor and VGA monitor) for a second user are provided on the rear panel.
Setup is fast and easy. Simply use the included custom USB DVI KVM cable set to link the LCD Console's KVM port to the console ports of your KVM switch and you are ready to go.
Since the CL6700's firmware is upgradable, you can stay current with the latest functionality improvements simply by downloading firmware updates from ATEN’s web site as they become available.
