Aten CS1184 4-Port USB DVI Secure KVM Switch

What sets the CS1184 4-Port USB DVI Secure KVM Switch apart is its robust security features and high-quality performance, making it a reliable and efficient solution for managing multiple devices. This user-friendly switch is NIAP-certified and has passed the Evaluation Assurance Level 2 (EAL2+) requirements for Peripheral Sharing Switch (PSS) for Human Interface Devices (HIDs) Protection Profile v2.1. This certification ensures it meets the stringent security standards set by the U.S. Department of Defense for peripheral switches.

The CS1184 KVM Switch is designed to maximize information security while sharing a single set of HIDs, such as keyboards, mouse, and speakers, between multiple computers. Its compliance with Protection Profile v2.1 guarantees that only a keyboard and mouse can be connected to the console ports, providing high-level security and safeguarding of data.

Hardware security features include tamper-evident tape, chassis intrusion detection, and tamper-proof hardware, while software security is ensured through restricted USB connectivity. Non-HIDs are ignored when switching, providing an isolated channel per port that prevents data transfer between secure and unsecure computers. The automatic clearing of the keyboard buffer further enhances data protection.

The CS1184 KVM Switch consolidates multiple workstations of various security classification levels with one keyboard, monitor, and mouse console. Port selection is exclusively via pushbutton to enhance security. The switch supports superior video quality with resolutions up to 2560 x 1600 (DVI Dual Link), 1920 x 1200 (DVI Single Link), and 2048 x 1536 (DVI-A). It also supports speaker and microphone functionality.

The CS1184 KVM Switch is housed in a rugged metal enclosure and features a built-in internal power supply. It supports multiple platforms including Windows, Linux, Mac, and Sun. With its multilayered security features and high-quality performance, the CS1184 4-Port USB DVI Secure KVM Switch is a durable and reliable solution for managing multiple devices securely and efficiently.
