Overview

One-Console KVM Switches

The KVM Switch allows you to access multiple computers from one keyboard, mouse and monitor. There is no interface card or software to configure. Installation is as easy as connecting cables between the KVM Switch and your computers. Operation is as simple as pressing push button, entering hot-key command and navigating through the user-friendly on-screen menu (available on models with OSD support). Depending on the model you have, it switches up to 4 (KNV104), 8 (KNV108) or 16 (KNV116D) IBM-compatible computers. The KVM Switch is independent of the computer operating system.

Two-Console KVM Switches

The advanced multi-access KVM Switches enable you to control multiple computers from one out of two locations, remote or local with two keyboards, mice and monitors. KNV2108D controls 8 computers and KNV2116D controls 16 computers.
