Search Tips...

Keyword Search
Our search engine uses any or all keywords typed in the text box to give you product search results.
For instance, typing in kvm will give you a broader set of results than kvm switch cables.

Note, however, that keywords in quotes are treated as a single phrase and will not be evaluated individually.

Booleans (AND, +, OR, NOT, -) are not supported.

Also, some keywords will not return results, and may automatically correct to a similar keyword.

Part Number Search Selection
Select this Search in the drop down box to search by part number instead of keywords.

Wild Card Search
The * character is only supported in a limited capacity. Using whole words is the best approach whenever possible.

"New Search" Radio Button
Search the entire section that you are currently in.

"Search Within Results" Radio Button
Enter keywords or a part number to limit your results within the previously searched results.


Other features

A list of all matching product categories or resources will appear in the upper left corner of the results page, when applicable, to help you further narrow your results, if you desire.

Use the "sort by" drop-down menu on the results page to sort by "most popular" and price (low to high or high to low)
in the store section.

    Quick Facts

  • Maximum resolution of 1600 x 1280.
  • Switch from your keyboard, an on-screen display, a computer linked through the serial port, or the front-panel buttons.

  • Further Details

  • Supporting the latest dual- and quad-head graphics cards, the ServSwitch Ultra Multi Video represents the latest in single-user KVM switching technology for CPUs with multiple video outputs.

    If you need to switch multiple video images for two, four, or eight computers, then the ServSwitch Ultra Multi Video is for you. It provides seamless switching of connected CPUs from a single KVM station. You can even connect your USB keyboard and mouse.

    The multiplatform switch brings switching versatility to server room applications containing a mix of PC, Mac, Sun, and UNIX computers by converting mouse data to any of these platforms. What’s more, a preconfiguration feature enables you to install most computers or servers without having to remove power.

    You get switching flexibility, too. To select a connected CPU, you can use several keyboard commands, push a button on the ServSwitch Ultra Multi Video’s front panel, or switch via a console connected through its RS-232 serial port. Or use the switch’s convenient on-screen display for server selection and configuration. The server window features adjustable background and text colors, and enables you to assign a unique name (up to 16 ASCII characters long) to each connected computer.

    You can also set the ServSwitch™ to automatically scan between computer video screens at a predetermined interval when it powers on.

    To add CPUs to your KVM switching application, daisychain multiple ServSwitch Ultra Multi Video units with the optional expansion cables. The 2-port models can be expanded to four computers, the 4-port models to 16 computers, and the 8-port chassis to as many as 64 computers!
