Introduction
Overview
The CL5708 / CL5716 Slideaway
TM
LCD KVMP Switch is an integrated LCD
console and keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM) switch that offers secure
access to 8 or 16 attached computers and mounts in only 1U of rack space. It
features an independently retractable 17” LED-backlit LCD monitor and
keyboard with built-in touchpad. An extra console port is provided on the rear
panel to manage 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 for
the connected computers, and the CL5708 / CL5716 supports USB peripheral
devices to be used with the attached computers. A single CL5708 / CL5716 can
control up to 8 or 16 computers. As many as 31 additional compatible KVM
switches can be daisy chained together, so that up to 256 or 512 computers can
all be controlled from a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse console. (See the
Appendix 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.
There are four models in the series as outlined in the following table:
Your CL5708 / CL5716 investment is protected by an included firmware

there is no software to configure, no need to get involved in complex
installation routines, nor any need to be concerned with incompatibility
problems. Access to any computer connected to the installation is easily
accomplished either by entering hotkey combinations from the keyboard, or by
means of a powerful, mouse driven, OSD (on-screen display) menu system. A
convenient Auto Scan feature also permits automatic scanning and monitoring
of the activities of all computers running on the installation one by one.
There is no better way to save time and money than with a CL5708 / CL5716
installation. By using the CL5708 / CL5716 with its sliding LCD console to
manage your installation, you: eliminate the expense of having to purchase a
separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each computer; save all the space
those extra components would take up; save the space that a keyboard, monitor,
and mouse would take with a standard KVM switch; save on energy costs; and
eliminate the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving
from one computer to another.
