ServerLink Dual Rail LCD Console

------------------------ Introduction
The ServerLink LCD offers the ultimate in styling and computer management. With a keyboard, mouse, TFT
LCD panel and a ServerLink LCD KVM switch module housed in an industry standard 19" 1U-height rack
drawer, it saves you up to 1/3 of valuable real estate from a rack cabinet. Better yet, when the ServerLink
LCD Console is cascaded with other ServerLink LCD KVM switch modules to increase server management
capacity, you save even more!
The Dual Rail design allows the keyboard and LCD display to slide in and out the rack independently of
each other which allows the keyboard to be conveniently stowed away while the monitor is still displayed.
All KVM switch modules come with a universal C-36 connector for connection between the console drawer
and a ServerLink LCD KVM switch module. This modularized design offers the maximum flexibility, as you
can choose and swap the modules to fit your needs. AServerLink LCD KVM switch module can also be
used as an independent KVM switch.
The ServerLink LCD Console comes in three parts
