Introduction
Overview
The CL1308 / CL1316 LCD KVM Switch features an integrated 19" LCD
panel allowing access and control with up to 8 or 16 computers from a single
console (keyboard, mouse, and monitor). As many as 8 (CL1308) or 16
(CL1316) additional switches can be cascaded bringing the total number of
connected computers to 128 (CL1308) or 256 (CL1316) computers that can be
controlled from a single keyboard-monitor-mouse console. Additionally, the
CL1308 / CL1316 features a compact design that allows installation in a 1U
system rack.
Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that is
needed. The switch supports both USB and PS/2 connections for the console
and computers. The CL1308 / CL1316 intercepts keyboard input directly, thus
eliminating the need for any software configuration. Switching between
computers can be easily accomplished either by manually pressing the front
panel push button port LEDs, entering hotkey combinations from the
keyboard, or via a menu driven multilingual on-screen display (OSD) system.
A convenient auto-scan feature permits automatic scanning and monitoring of
activities on all connected computers. Lastly, the CL1308 / CL1316 offers the
following additional benefits: a) integrated 19” LCD, keyboard and mouse
console, b) managing 8/16 computers from a single console, c) eliminating the
expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for
each computer, d) space and energy costs savings, and d) creates a greener
environment by reducing energy waste.
