16-Port PS/2 USB KVM Switch

The D-Link KVM-450 provides single-console control of up to 16 servers that use either PS/2 or USB keyboard and mouse interfaces. It is built for small to medium server rooms where administrators need local access to multiple platforms from one keyboard, monitor and mouse.

Sustained operation in a rack environment

The metal chassis operates continuously between 32 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit with humidity up to 80 percent. Front-panel LEDs show selected and on-line status at a glance while the AutoScan function cycles through connected servers at intervals from 5 to 90 seconds without operator intervention.

Pre-installation checks for your rack

Verify that a standard 19-inch rack with 1U of vertical space is available for the included mounting brackets. Ensure the console monitor supports a maximum resolution of 2048 x 1536 and that a 5 V 2 A power outlet is accessible for the supplied adapter.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the KVM-450 generate when running all day in a 19-inch rack?

The unit operates from 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C) with 0% to 80% humidity. It draws 5 V at 2 A from its external power adapter.

What cables or consoles must I already have to use the 16 HDB-15 ports on the KVM-450?

You need a PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse and a VGA monitor for the local console. Each server requires a 4-in-1 PS/2-USB KVM cable; four 6 ft sets are included, so twelve more are needed for full 16-port use.

Will the KVM-450 work with older PS/2-only servers I still run alongside USB systems?

Yes. The switch supports both PS/2 and USB platform servers on the same 16 ports, emulating a PS/2 or USB keyboard so each machine boots without keyboard errors.
