Cable Connection Options
Additional, dedicated KVM cables are required to connect each computer to the U16. These cables use traditional VGA and PS/2 connectors and are available in the following lengths:
These cables can be connected directly to PS/2 equipped computers, but if you want to connect via USB, an additional USB to PS/2 adapter or USB to PS/2 cable is required for each computer.
Optional Remote Access Modules
The U16 switch‘s modular design offers the ability to add a second console featuring remote access via an IP remote access module or Cat.5 remote extender kit. This added functionality allows access to the servers and KVM switches from a remote office workstation or, in the case of the IP unit, from almost anywhere in the world with internet access.
