Introduction

Overview

The CL5708 / CL5716 Slideaway

LCD KVMP Switch is a keyboard, video,

and mouse (KVM) switch with an integrated LCD console that offers secure

access and control to 8 or 16 computers and be mounted within a 1U rack

space. It features an independently retractable 17” or 19” LED-backlit LCD

monitor and keyboard with built-in touchpad in a 1U rack-mountable sliding

housing. An extra console port is provided on the rear panel for managing the

LCD KVM switch from an external console (monitor, keyboard, and mouse)

up to 20 meters away. For added convenience it also supports an external USB

mouse.

The CL5708 / CL5716 supports both PS/2 and USB keyboards and mice as

well as USB peripheral devices (inapplicable to CL5708MW / CL5716MW)

for the connected computers

When daisy-chained, as many as 31 additional compatible KVM switches can

be connected for managing up to 256 / 512 computers from a single keyboard,

monitor, and mouse console. (See Compatible Products on the product web

page for a list of compatible ATEN switches.)

The CL5708 / CL5716 is built on a modular design. The KVM section can be

detached from the switch section for convenient maintenance and repair.

For added security, an optional fingerprint identification system* can be used

to control access to the CL5708 / CL5716, and the servers under its command.

There are fix models in the series as outlined in the following table:

CL5708 / CL5716 User Manual

Your CL5708 / CL5716 investment is protected by an included firmware

upgrade utility. You can stay up-to-date with the latest functionality

improvements by downloading firmware update files from our website as they

become available, and using the utility to quickly and conveniently perform the

upgrade.

Setup is fast and easy — plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that

is entailed. There is no software configuration required, with no need to get

involved in complex installation routines.

Access to any computer connected to the installation is easily accomplished

either by entering hotkey combinations from the keyboard, or via its powerful,

menu-driven OSD (on-screen display). A convenient Auto Scan feature also

permits automated port switching at set intervals for easy monitoring of all

activities from the managed computers.

There is no better way to save time and money than with a CL5708 / CL5716

installation. By using the CL5708 / CL5716’s sliding LCD console to manage

your installation, you can not only eliminate the expense of having to purchase

a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each computer, while saving all

the space and energy costs those extra components would otherwise take up,

but also eliminate the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly

moving the required consoles from one computer to another.
