Eight-port HDMI KVM for server rooms

The IOGEAR GCS1808HKITU is an eight-port USB HDMI KVM switch designed for administrators who need to manage multiple computers from one console. It accepts eight HDMI video sources and eight USB Type-B computer links, then routes them to a single HDMI monitor, keyboard and mouse. The unit ships with eight custom KVM cable sets so every port is ready to connect immediately.

1920 x 1200 resolution ceiling and cascade headroom

Video output tops out at 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz, covering 480i through 1080p signals but stopping short of higher-resolution panels. The switch can cascade up to three levels, extending control to 512 computers from the same console when additional GCS1808H units are stacked. Auto-scan intervals run from 1 to 255 seconds for unattended monitoring.

Bundled cables and rack kit change deployment speed

Eight pre-assembled USB HDMI KVM cable sets eliminate the need to source matching leads for each server. A firmware upgrade cable, power adapter, foot pads, quick-start guide and full rack-mounting kit are also included, letting the unit slide straight into a standard rack without extra procurement. Two built-in USB 2.0 ports share peripherals such as printers or storage across all connected systems.

Questions about this item

Will the GCS1808HKITU pass 1920 x 1200 @60Hz from my older HDMI sources to a single monitor?

Yes, the switch supports up to 1920 x 1200 @60Hz across all eight HDMI inputs, so legacy sources at that resolution will display correctly.

How can I confirm the KVM is switching properly after connecting eight PCs?

The front panel shows eight green USB peripheral LEDs and eight orange On Line LEDs; the active port lights orange while its USB link lights green, and the dark green power LED stays on.

What cables and accessories are included, and do I need anything else for eight computers?

The box contains the switch, eight custom USB HDMI KVM cable sets, a firmware upgrade cable, power adapter, foot pads, quick start guide, and rack mounting kit — no extra cables are required for eight PCs.
