KH1508i / KH1516i User Manual
2
For local access, the KH1508i / KH1516i supports resolutions of up to 1600 x
1200, as well as 1280 x 1024 @ 75Hz for an extended distance of up to 40 m.
For remote access, the switches support up to 1280 x 1024 @ 75Hz.
The switches feature RJ-45 connectors and CAT 5 cable to link to the
computers. Utilizing PS/2, USB, and serial KVM Adapter Cables for the final
linkup, the KH1508i / KH1516i permits any combination of PCs, Macs, Sun
computers, and serial devices to coexist on the installation. Use of the adapter
cables dramatically reduces cable clutter, and makes reconfiguring the
installation easy and convenient.
A custom ASIC (patent pending) provides an auto-sensing function that
recognizes the position of each station on the chain, eliminating the need to
manually set the position with DIP switches. A seven segment front panel LED
displays each Station's position for easy identification.
The KH1508i / KH1516i has been designed to work seamlessly with the
ALTUSEN CC1000 Control Center Over the NET™ for ease of access and
administration. It also allows the IP address configuration to be easily
configured from the local console OSD.
Your KH1508i / KH1516i investment is protected by a firmware upgrade
utility. You can stay current with the latest improvements in functionality by
downloading firmware update files from our website, and using the utility to
quickly and conveniently install them.
Setting up the KH1508i / KH1516i is fast and easy; plugging cables into their
appropriate ports is all that is entailed. Because the KH1508i / KH1516i
intercepts keyboard and mouse input directly, there is no software to configure;
no need to get involved in complex installation routines; no need to be
concerned with incompatibility problems.
Access to any computer on the installation is easily accomplished--either by
pressing front panel port selection switches; entering hotkey combinations
from the keyboard; or by means of a powerful menu driven OSD (On Screen
Display) system. A convenient Auto Scan function also permits automatic
scanning and one-by-one monitoring of the activities of selected computers.
There is no better way to save time and money than with a KH1508i / KH1516i
installation. By allowing a single console to manage up to 256 computers, a
KH1508i / KH1516i installation: (1) eliminates the expense of having to
purchase a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each; (2) saves all the
space those extra components would take up; (3) saves on energy costs; and (4)
eliminates the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving
from one computer to another.
