Overview

The KH2516A KVM switch is a control unit that allows IT administrators to access and control multiple computers from two PS/2 or USB KVM consoles (two bus). Operators working at up to two consoles can independently and simultaneously take control of up to 16 computers. By daisy chaining up to 15 additional switches, as many as 256 computers can be controlled from the original KVM consoles.

This switch has 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, etc. This feature allows administrators to relocate servers to different ports without having to reconfigure the adapters. Another advantage found in these switches is Full HD video quality – extending the distance to the servers to up to 30 m at a resolution of 1920 x 1200 *.

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 KH2516A installation provides one of the best, and most economical, solutions ATEN offers to the SMB market. There is no better way to save time, space, and money than with a KH2516A KVM switch.

Note:

*The video quality of KH2516A has been enhanced to Full HD. To distinguish between the non-FHD and FHD versions, please refer to below link: FHD & Non-FHD Comparison Photo

*The KH2516A does not support virtual media even when paired with a virtual media-enabled KVM adapter.
