KVM stands for Keyboard, Video, and
Mouse. The main purpose of a KVM
switch is to control multiple CPUs from a
single console. A console consists of three
main components: Keyboard, Video,
Mouse. A KVM solution allows multiple
sets of keyboards, monitors and mice to be
replaced with a single set of control
peripherals. KVM technology provides
easy access and control to any connected
CPU.
KVM switches are suitable for any applica-
tion where a user needs to operate several
computers at the same time. Accessory
KVM products are available to provide
extended cabling distances and console
signal conversion. Besides the principle
cost and power savings of multiple sets of
redundant peripherals, the end user also
benefits from increased desktop space,
and saves time and the physical effort of
moving between several computers at
multiple locations.
Avocent’s technology provides individuals
with powerful KVM connections to their
servers, data centres and information infra-
structure through progressive solutions for
network monitoring, maintenance and man-
agement. Our proven KVM switching solu-
tions are designed for the desktop to the
data centre. They are easy to implement,
integrate, operate, and expand –saving time
and money.
The technology of KVM provides added flex-
ibility and increased control in today’s
expanding IT infrastructure.
