- ATEN 19" 16-Port LCD USB KVM Switch
The 19" 16-Port LCD USB KVM Switch from Aten features an integrated 19" LED-backlit LCD panel allowing access and control with up to 16 computers from a single console (keyboard, mouse, and monitor). As many as 16 additional switches can be cascaded bringing the total number of connected computers to 256 computers that can be controlled from a single keyboard-monitor-mouse console.
The switch supports both USB and PS/2 connections for the computers. The CL1316 intercepts keyboard input directly, thus eliminating the need for any software configuration. Switching between computers can be easily accomplished either by manually pressing the front panel push button port LEDs, entering hotkey combinations from the keyboard, or via a menu driven multilingual on-screen display (OSD) system. LCD KVM switch offers a space-saving, streamlined approach to KVM switching technology by integrating an LCD panel, full keyboard, and touchpad into a 1U rack-mountable sliding housing.
