32-Port Multi-Interface (DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI, VGA) Cat 5 KVM Switch
KH1532A
- One KVM console controls up to 32 directly connected computers
- By daisy chaining up to 31 additional KH1532A switches, as many as 1024 computers can be controlled from the original KVM console
- Superior Video Quality- Supports the video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 @60Hz for up to 30 meters*, 1600 x 1200 @60Hz for up to 40 meters, and 1280 x 1024 @75Hz for up to 50 meters
- Three port selection methods: Manual (via front panel pushbuttons), Hotkey, and multi-language OSD (On Screen Display)
The KH1532A KVM switches are control units that allow IT administrators to access and control multiple computers from a single PS/2 or USB KVM console (keyboard, monitor, and mouse). Operators can take control of up to 32 (KH1532A) computers. By daisy chaining up to 31 additional switches, as many as 1024 computers can be controlled from a central KVM console.
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 Cable's configuration information – such as its ID, port name, OS, keyboard language, and more. This feature allows administrators to relocate servers to different ports without having to reconfigure the adapters. Another advantage found in these switches is Full HD video quality – extending the distance to the servers to up to 30 m at a resolution of 1920 x 1200 *.
In addition, the switches are compatible with ATEN KVM adapter cable. This allows flexible interface combinations (PS/2, USB with VGA, DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort video interface, Sun and serial) to control all computer types.
A KH1532A installation provides one of the best and most economical solutions ATEN has to offer the SMB market. There is no better way to save a data center time, space, and money than with a KH1532A KVM switch.
*For video resolution 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz, a KA71XX or KA75XX series KVM adapter is required.
