Why use a KVM Switch?
A KVM switch enables you to access
two or more computers using only
one keyboard, monitor, and mouse.
◗You save time—KVM switches give you
centralized control of all your computers.
◗You save space—with KVM switches,
you eliminate extra keyboards and mice,
saving 50 to 70% of your space…or more!
◗You save money—you only need to
buy one keyboard, monitor, and mouse
to access all your computers or servers.
Plus with the ServSwitch™USB, you save
even more by being able to share USB
peripherals between several CPUs!
