ATEN KL1116M 17 INCH LCD CONSOLE W/16-PORT KVM SWITCH 1U

ATEN's new 16-port Hideaway, KL1116, is a control unit that allows access to multiple computers from a single KVM (keyboard, monitor, and mouse), console. A single KL1116 can control up to 16 computers. As many as 31 additional units can be daisy chained to each other, so that up to 512 (KL1116 + KH0116) computers can all be controlled from a KL1116. The KL1116 offers a space-saving, streamlined approach to KVM switch technology by integrating a keyboard, LCD monitor, and touchpad in a 1U Hideaway housing. The LCD module and keyboard module slide separately - you can see the video display, for example, while the keyboard and touchpad are conveniently out of the way. Access to any computer connected to the installation is easily accomplished either by means of a powerful, mouse driven, OSD (On Screen Display) menu system, or by entering Hotkey combinations from the keyboard. A convenient Auto Scan feature also permits automatic scanning and monitoring of the activities of all computers running on the installation one by one. Additional console port allows the second user access remotely or locally. Work with ATEN's IP access unit (CN5000), you can control attached computers anywhere around the world. There is no better way to save time and money than with a KL1116 installation. By using the KL1116 with its Hideaway console to manage your installation, you: eliminate the expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each computer; save all the space those extra components would take up; save the space that a keyboard, monitor, and mouse would take with a standard KVM switch; save on energy costs; and eliminate the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving from one computer to another.
