A KVM is a great device for controlling various computers or server systems. A direct translation sounds like monitor, mouse, keyboard. With the help of a KVM switch, an administrator can control different PCs one by one using a single set of peripherals. This method saves time, space, and resources - there is no need to purchase a separate set of visualization and control devices for each PC.
Characteristics of KVM switches
A KVM switch is undoubtedly a very convenient system for management and administration. But before you choose a suitable model, you need to understand
- what it will be used for,
- how many devices will be connected,
- what additional features are required.
The first switches were mechanical and cumbersome, but today they are high-tech devices with emulation of disconnected devices and sound support.
The main characteristics of switches:
- Number of devices to be connected
- Quality of video and audio signal support
- Multiplatform support (KVM virtualization)
- Support for remote access
- Emulation ports
Switches can have from 2 to 16 ports.
IP KVM Rackmount Switches are the optimal solution for administrators of complex server systems that operate 24/7. They make it possible to organize remote access via the Internet - even from another country. The switch itself is installed together with the server hardware.
KVM switches for Mac or Sun have a USB connection. There are also models that can be connected via a CAT5 port - they support the management of a large number of servers and allow access to several administrators in one room.
KVM consoles are also available - these are combined devices with a built-in monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
