D-Link’s KVM switches are the ideal solution for data centers and other businesses where a large number of servers need to be managed from a single location.

The on-screen menu allows you to label each channel with a descriptive name, providing clear and easy navigation. A convenient Auto-Scan function allows you to automatically toggle between multiple computers sequentially at preset intervals.The front panel LEDs assist with workstation/server status monitoring.Green LEDs indicate that systems are online, while separate red LEDs indicate when a particular system has been selected for management via console.
