Aten CL5708iM / CL5716iM 17" Rack Console with 8 or 16 port KVM switch over IP

Product Description

The Aten CL5708iM Slideaway 17" LCD rack console with an 8 or 16 port KVM Switch is a control unit that allows access to multiple computers from a single PS/2 or USB KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) console. A single CL5708iM / CL5716iM can control up to 8 or 16 computers. As many as 15 additional KVM switches can be daisychained to the CL5708iM / CL5716iM, so that up to 128 computers can all be controlled from a single KVM console.

The CL5708iM / CL5716iM LCD KVM Switch is an IP-based KVM control unit that allows both local and remote operators to monitor and access multiple computers. Remote users access the switches over the Internet by means of a web browser using TCP/IP for its remote communications protocol.

The CL5708iM / CL5716iM supports up to 32 concurrent user logins for a single-bus computer access. A built-in feature that resembles an Internet chat program - the Message Board - lets them communicate with each other. The ability to exchange information in real time allows them to cooperatively manage the installation in a smooth and efficient manner.
