Eight-Port Server Management

This KVM switch connects eight computers to a single keyboard, monitor and mouse. It accepts both USB and PS/2 peripherals and provides eight RJ-45 ports for server links. The unit fits a standard rack with a 1.7" height profile.

Suited For Rack Administrators

Operators who need local console access to multiple servers from one station will find the eight-port capacity convenient. The single VGA output and dual PS/2 ports limit use to environments that still rely on analogue video and legacy keyboard or mouse connections. Buyers who require digital video, remote-over-IP access or more than eight connected systems should look at something else.

One Local Console For Eight Servers

The defining specification is the eight computer connections paired with one local user station. This ratio fixes the maximum number of servers that can be managed without cascading additional switches. Verify that your rack depth accommodates the 16.7" width and 7.4" depth before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the KVM0108A include the cables to connect eight servers, or do I need to buy them separately?

The switch provides eight RJ-45 ports for server links; compatible CAT5 cables must be purchased separately.

Should I choose the PS/2 or USB console option on the KVM0108A for my keyboard and mouse?

The unit has two PS/2 and two USB console ports, so you can connect either PS/2 or USB peripherals without an adapter.

What does the single VGA port on the KVM0108A mean for my monitor setup?

One VGA output drives a single local monitor; all eight connected servers share that display through the switch.
