Aten KH1508A

8-Port Multi-Interface (DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI, VGA) Cat 5 KVM Switch

The KH1508A, KH1516A and KH1532A KVM switches are control units that allow IT administrators to access and control multiple computers from a single PS/2 or USB KVM console (keyboard, monitor, and mouse). Operators can take control of up to 8 (KH1508A), 16 (KH1516A), or 32 (KH1532A) computers. By daisy chaining up to 31 additional switches, as many as 1024 computers can be controlled from a central KVM console.

These switches have been designed with unique and powerful features that enable administrators to manage their entire server room and data center devices easily and conveniently. 

For example, the advanced Adapter ID feature stores the Adapter Cable's configuration information – such as its ID, port name, OS, keyboard language, and more. This feature allows administrators to relocate servers to different ports without having to reconfigure the adapters. Other advantages found with these switches includes Full HD video quality and the ability to extend the distance to the servers to up to 50 m* at a resolution of 1280 x 1024. 

In addition, the switches are compatible with ATEN KVM adapter cable. This allows flexible interface combinations (PS/2, USB with VGA, DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort video interface, Sun and serial) to control all computer types.

A KH1508A, KH1516A or KH1532A installation provides one of the best and most economical solutions ATEN has to offer the SMB market. There is no better way to save a data center time, space, and money than with a KH1508A, KH1516A or KH1532A KVM switch.
