Switch KVM ATEN CL1308N Montaje en rack Negro PS/2 USB VGA

The ATEN CL1308N is a 1U rack-mountable KVM switch that integrates a 19" LED-backlit LCD, full keyboard and touchpad into a sliding console for efficient server-room use. It supports both PS/2 and USB keyboard/mouse connections and allows control of up to 8 computers from a single console; cascading up to 8 additional switches increases control capacity to 128 computers. The unit is constructed from metal and plastic and supports a maximum LCD resolution of 1280 x 1024 with analog video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200.

Advantages

The CL1308N reduces rack space and simplifies cabling by combining monitor, keyboard and touchpad in a single 1U sliding housing. It supports mixed PS/2 and USB peripherals, offers cascade expandability for large installations, and provides multiple switching methods including front-panel buttons, keyboard hotkeys and a multilingual on-screen display. The direct keyboard interception design removes the need for additional software configuration, enabling quick setup and immediate access to connected systems.

Suitable for

• Small to medium server rooms where rack space is limited
• Network and system administrators managing multiple servers from a single console
• Environments requiring both PS/2 and USB peripheral support
• Installations that may need to expand control to many servers via cascading

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use certified KVM cables and proper grounding for the rack. If you plan to cascade multiple switches, plan cable routing and port mapping in advance and verify compatibility of PS/2 and USB devices. Optional rack-mount kits are available for secure installation; consult ATEN documentation for compatible accessories.
