Aten KL1516AIM 8 port CAT5 17″ High Density Dual Rail KVM switch with IP can be daisy-chained up to 15 additional KVM switches to control up to 256 computers. It features OSD tree structure makes finding and managing computers easy and an extra console port – manage computers in the LCD KVM switch from an external console. KL1516AIM suports Broadcast Mode that sends commands from the console to all computers allowing you to perform operations (such as software installation, upgrades, shutdowns, etc.), on them simultaneously. Compatible KVM switches: KH1508A/KH1516A.
The KL1516AiM Dual Rail LCD KVM Switch is a control unit that allows secure access up to 16 computers from a single KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) console. It consists of an integrated LCD monitor, keyboard, and touchpad in a 1U rack-mountable retractable sliding housing.
The LCD and keyboard/touchpad modules on KL1516AIM slide independently of each other. To maximize space in your data center, the keyboard/touchpad module slides back to “ hide away ” when not in use, while the thin profile LCD monitor rotates back – flush against the rack – allowing convenient monitoring of computer activity.
The KL1516AiM features IP-based connectivity that allows local and remote operators to monitor and access the computers on your installation. Because it uses TCP/IP for its communications protocol, the KL1516AiM can be accessed from any computer on the LAN, WAN, or Internet – whether that computer is located down the hall, down the street, or halfway around the world.
Compact, high-density, RJ-45 connectors and Cat 5e/6 cable make for a compact, efficient, wiring configuration, while the use of KVM Adapter Cables to link to the computers, permits any combination of PCs, Macs, Sun computers, and serial devices to coexist on the installation.
For added convenience, ports for an external keyboard, monitor, and mouse are provided on the rear panel of the KL1516AIM – permitting you to manage the switch from a local console. There is also an external USB mouse port on the keyboard module, allowing you to use an external mouse, rather than the touchpad.
Enhanced features include a Panel Array Mode™ that displays the video output of up to 16 computers at the same time, and a Message Board that allows logged in users to conveniently and instantly communicate with one other – no matter where in the world they actually are. The KL1516AiM is an ideal solution for your server room management.
