KVM-Switch ATEN CL1308N rack 19 inch nero PS/2 USB VGA 1U

The ATEN CL1308N is a 1U rack-mountable KVM switch that integrates a 19" LED-backlit LCD panel, full keyboard, and touchpad into a sliding housing to save space in server rooms. It provides access and control of up to 8 computers from a single console and supports cascading of up to 8 additional switches to manage up to 128 computers. The unit supports both PS/2 and USB keyboard/mouse connections and provides a VGA video interface with a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. The housing combines metal and plastic construction and the switch accepts a wide AC input voltage range for versatile deployment.

Advantages

The CL1308N reduces rack space by combining monitor, keyboard and touchpad in a 1U sliding module while maintaining support for both PS/2 and USB peripherals. Cascading capability allows centralized control of many servers from a single console. Simple plug-and-play setup requires no special software because the switch intercepts keyboard input directly. Multiple switching methods are available: front-panel buttons, hotkey combinations and a multilingual on-screen display (OSD).

• Small to medium server rooms where rack space is limited
• Network and system administrators managing multiple servers from one console
• Environments requiring both PS/2 and USB peripheral support

Power the unit from an AC source within the supported voltage range. No additional software is required—use front-panel buttons, keyboard hotkeys or the multilingual OSD to switch between connected computers.

Recommendations

For stable video output, use high-quality VGA cables and ensure connected computers are set to supported resolutions up to 1920 x 1200. If mounting in a shared rack, verify clearance for the sliding rail. Refer to compatible accessories for available rack mount kits.
