Hi,

KVM Switches: Boon for People Controlling Multiple PCs with Single set of Peripherals
KVM is an abbreviation for keyboard, video and mouse. The KVM Switches are used for controlling multiple computers or servers using just one set of peripherals. These switches can be used to control up to 64 computers and by daisy chaining these devices, a greater number can be controlled. Practical and relatively affordable, these devices have a button on them using which users can switch between machines. Hot keys or on screen display can also be used for switching between computers. This product is great for people who do not wish to run lots of wires to the many computers or servers that they need to control. There are many types of these switches available. Most popular among them is the USB KVM Switch. Sharing USB peripherals is made possible by these switches which are compatible with Windows, SUN, Linux and other operating systems. They support 1,920 x 1,440 video resolution and 200MHz bandwidth. Audio and microphone support are also provided by these devices. Requiring no additional software for operation, these switches support eight characters password protection and search PC server name. Hot pluggable, these devices are equipped with built-in microprocessor emulation for each port boot up process. They also have a scan mode to monitor servers at intervals 5 to 99 seconds. A main feature is the ability to support Solaris multi language. Another category, the DVI KVM Switch allows controlling DVI enabled computers with one DVI monitor, USB keyboard and USB mouse. This switch supports a resolution of 1600 X 1200 @ 60Hz along with various platforms and operating systems. They are perfect for applications that require mixed analog / digital operation and have an Auto Scan Mode for monitoring PCs. All models of these switches range from dual-port to large, 16-port rack-mount switches that can handle multiple computers and consoles. They are used to alternate between two or more computers with different operating systems allowing developers to test their software on multiple platforms when developing a cross platform application. KVM switches are often used by Network administrators to monitor and control multiple servers at a time, allowing for secure and efficient management of information.
