Black Box KV9216A EC Series 16-Port for PS/2 or USB Servers KVM Switch

The ServSwitch EC for PS/2 and USB Servers and PS/2 or USB Consoles gives you the option of using either a PS/2 or USB keyboard and mouse to control a number of PS/2 or USB servers. Where you have a mix of servers and console control devices, this ServSwitch has a rear-panel slide switch that you use to select either PS/2 or USB console mode. To expand your switching platform to include additional servers, simply cascade units in a master-slave configuration.

The ServSwitch EC is plug-and-play, so you can add or subtract servers almost as quickly as you can plug and unplug cables. Four- and 8-port models are also available, as are other models for PS/2 and/or USB switching; see Related Items. The front panel includes port LEDs, which light with the corresponding active port when you switch between servers. You can also use the on-screen display to view the connection status on each port and lock servers from unauthorized users.
