Introduction
Overview
The CL6708MW Single Rail 8-Port DVI FHD LCD KVM Switch features an
integrated 17.3" LED-backlit LCD panel allowing access to and control of up
to 8 computers. As many as 8 additional switches can be cascaded bringing the
total number of connected computers to 64. Additionally, the CL6708MW
features a compact design that allows installation in a 1U system rack and
includes ports for a second KVM console (keyboard, mouse, speakers and DVI
monitor) on the rear panel.
Setup is fast and easy - plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that is
needed. The switch supports DVI and USB connections for the external
console and computers. The CL6708MW also intercepts keyboard input
directly, eliminating the need to configure software. Switching between
computers is easily accomplished by pressing front panel pushbuttons, entering
hotkeys or via a menu-driven on-screen display (OSD).
The CL6708MW incorporates the YUV video format for greater compatibility
with high-definition signals from source devices. Similarly, the CL6708MW is
HDCP-compatible, making it effective for use with content-protected media in
corporate, educational and commercial settings. To further enhance usability,
ATEN’s LED illumination light brightens the keyboard and touchpad for easy
viewing in low-light conditions.
As a complete KVM solution, the CL6708MW offers an integrated 17.3"
widescreen LCD panel with keyboard and mouse console, management of 8
computers from a single console (or up to 64 computers when cascaded with
additional switches), YUV video format and HDCP support and additional
ports for an external console (keyboard, monitor, mouse) connection.
