DIGITUS modulär KVM-switch 8-port för modulär KVM-konsol

The DIGITUS Modular KVM switch allows flexible administration of a server rack by providing connection and control for up to eight servers from a single console. Housed in a space-saving 1U casing, the unit supports USB or PS/2 keyboard and mouse connections and VGA video output. For operation it requires a DIGITUS 17" or 19" modular console, a keyboard and the corresponding cable set. Optional modules with IP functionality enable remote browser-based access over an existing network connection.

Advantages

The modular design enables custom configurations and later expansion or conversion of the KVM switch to match changing requirements, offering future-proof flexibility. The compact 1U form factor saves rack space, while the availability of optional IP-enabled modules allows both local and remote administration. Standard USB and VGA interfaces ensure compatibility with common server hardware.
