About IOGEAR GCL1908W

The 18.5" Widescreen Short Depth 8-Port LCD KVM Switch, also known as IOGEAR's GCL1908W, is a high-performance, integrated console that offers secure and efficient access to eight VGA, USB, or PS/2 computers. This advanced KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) switch supports both PS/2 and USB keyboards and mice, ensuring seamless connectivity with the connected computers. Additionally, it supports USB peripheral devices for the attached computers, enhancing its versatility.

One of the standout features of the GCL1908W Switch is its space-saving design. It boasts a rack-mountable, retractable 18.5" TFT LCD active matrix monitor and a keyboard with a built-in touchpad. This streamlined integration not only saves space but also contributes to a more organized and efficient server operation.

Designed to fit into a universal 1U rack mount space, this LCD KVM Switch comes with a rack mount kit, making it suitable for rack environments with varying depths ranging from 16.5" to 28.3". This adaptability makes it an ideal choice for growing or expanding server operations.

The GCL1908W Switch is more than just a space-saver. It's an energy-cost saving solution that contributes to a greener environment by reducing the amount of waste generated by multiple components.

Furthermore, the GCL1908W Switch offers the capability to control, view, and expand. A single unit can control up to eight computers. However, with the cascading of up to two additional compatible KVM switches, you can control up to 128 computers from a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse console. This feature makes the 18.5" Widescreen Short Depth 8-Port LCD KVM Switch a powerful tool for managing large-scale IT environments.
