CS1708A 8 port multiplatform KVM switch

The CS1708A  KVM allows access to 8 directly connected computers, and through Daisy chain architecture as many as 256 total servers may be controlled from a single keyboard, mouse and monitor.

The CS1708A  KVM allows access to 8 directly connected computers, and through Daisy chain architecture as many as 256 total servers may be controlled from a single keyboard, mouse and monitor. To simplify installation and to keep track of so many servers a custom ASIC (patent pending) provides an auto-sensing function that recognizes the position of each KVM station in the chain. A front panel  USB port provides server access to USB devices such as Hard Drives, or CDROM s, eliminating  the need to physically connect a storage device to a server to install  patches or updates. The CS1708A will accommodate either PS/2 or USB keyboards and mice, and will connect to a mixture of PS/2 and USB servers.
