8-Port 1U Rack-Mount KVM Switch

The Tripp Lite B022-U08 is an 8-port KVM switch designed for 1U rack mounting. It allows a single local user to control up to eight connected computers using one keyboard, monitor and mouse console. The unit supports video resolutions up to 2048 x 1536 and includes USB support for peripheral sharing. An AC power adapter with 100-240V input is supplied.

Suited for single-console server rooms.

This switch suits administrators who manage up to eight servers from one rack location. It also supports daisy-chaining up to 32 switches for expanded control of up to 264 computers. Buyers needing simultaneous, independent access for multiple local users should look elsewhere, as only one local user is supported. The front USB port enables external data sharing across all connected systems.

Maximum video resolution 2048 x 1536

The key specification that decides compatibility is the maximum supported video resolution of 2048 x 1536. Verify that your servers and console monitor operate within this limit. The package includes a USB/PS2 combo console cable kit and an RJ45-to-DB9 firmware upgrade cable. Optional IP remote access is available with a separate Tripp Lite B051-000 module.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the B022-U08 is switching video at 2048 x 1536 after I connect eight servers?

Power on the unit, attach the USB/PS2 console cable kit to the front panel, and cycle through each of the 8 ports using the front-panel buttons or hot-key sequence; the attached monitor should display each server's desktop at up to 2048 x 1536 without flicker.

What ships with the B022-U08 and which cables must I purchase for each server?

The box includes the 1U KVM switch, a USB/PS2 combo console cable kit for the local keyboard, mouse and monitor, an RJ45-to-DB9 firmware upgrade cable, and a 100-240 V AC power adapter; you must buy one Tripp Lite server interface cable per computer to connect its video, USB and PS/2 ports to the rear RJ45 jacks.

Should I choose a single B022-U08 or daisy-chain multiple units to reach 264 computers?

One B022-U08 controls 8 computers; daisy-chain up to 32 switches with the rear cascade ports to expand control to 264 computers from the same console, adding one AC adapter per additional unit.
