KL1516A
- Exclusive LED illumination light - designed by ATEN to illuminate the keyboard and touchpad to allow visibility in low-light conditions
- Dual Rail housing is slightly less than 1U with top and bottom clearance for smooth operationmm in 1U of rack space
- Space-Saving RJ-45 connectors and Cat 5e / 6 cabling
- Superior Video Quality- Supports the video resolutions up to 1280x1024@75 Hz for up to 50 meters
ATEN KL1516A LCD KVM Switch features independently retractable, dual slide 17" or 19" LED-backlit LCD monitor and keyboard with built-in touchpad. The KL1516A KVM switches are control units that allow IT administrators to access and control multiple computers from the LCD console and an extra PS/2 or USB KVM console.
For increased reliability and efficiency, RJ-45 connectors and Cat 5e / 6 cable are used to link to the computers. Utilizing KVM Adapters for the final linkup, the KL1516A permits any combination of PCs, Macs, Sun computers, and serial devices to coexist on the installation.
These switches have 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'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 . Other advances found with these switches includes enhanced video quality – extending the distance to the servers to up to 50 m at a resolution of 1280 x 1024.
A KL1516A 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 KL1516A KVM switch.
Note:
*Optional rack mount kits are available. For more information, refer to Compatible Accessories below or the link: LCD KVM Optional Rack Mount Kit
*The KL1516A does not support virtual media even when paired with a virtual media-enabled KVM adapter.
