About Aten KH1508Ai

While the KH1508Ai 8-Port Cat5 High-Density KVM Over IP Switch is a compact, rack-mountable solution for managing multiple computers, its capabilities extend far beyond its physical size. This device offers both 8 and 16 computer port configurations, all housed within a 1U-high unit for easy and convenient rack mounting.

Designed with both local and remote operators in mind, this KVM switch allows for comprehensive monitoring and access to your entire enterprise data center via the internet, using a web-based browser. The KH1508Ai employs RJ-45 connectors and Cat5e/6 cable to establish a reliable connection with your computers, supporting a multiplatform environment that includes PCs, Macs, Sun computers, and serial devices.

The high-quality signal transmission ensures that data can travel long distances, up to 50m, without the need for KVM extenders. The final linkup is facilitated by KVM Adapter Cables, allowing a diverse range of devices to coexist within the installation.

The KH1508Ai KVM switch is not just about connectivity; it also provides console ports for locally attached USB or PS/2 consoles and a Laptop USB console (LUC), enabling access and control both from the data center and over the internet.

The unique features of this switch, such as the Message Board for remote user communication and the Panel Array Mode for real-time monitoring of multiple servers, make it a powerful tool for managing server rooms and data centers.

The KH1508Ai supports superior video quality, with resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 60Hz at distances up to 40 meters, and 1280 x 1024 at 75Hz at up to 50 meters. It also allows for daisy-chaining of up to 15 additional units, enabling control of up to 128 or 256 computers from a single console.

With advanced security features like remote authentication support and flexible encryption design, the KH1508Ai ensures secure user logins and data protection. The user-friendly interface, compatible with multiple platforms and browsers, simplifies administrative tasks and enhances productivity.

The KH1508Ai 8-Port Cat5 High-Density KVM Over IP Switch is a versatile, high-performance solution for managing and monitoring your data center devices, ensuring high availability of services and minimizing Mean Time to Repair (MTTR).
