Hotkey Port Access

Hotkey Port Access allows you to select which computer has the KVM focus and/or which computer has access to the USB peripherals. CPU Port selection and USB Port assignment can be done independently (asynchronously). One computer can have the KVM focus while another has access to the USB peripherals. The CS-1754 / CS-1758 provides the following Hotkey Port Access features:
