The modular LINDY KVM Switch series U8/16
The U8/16 KVM switch series provides either 8 or 16 KVM server ports
supporting both PS/2 and USB keyboard and mouse connections.
This KVM switch series incorporates a modular concept design which
allows for dual console access. The local console port allows direct
access whilst a second console option permits remote access either via
remote IP or via a remote Cat.5 extender Unit. This option allows
system administrators to access and administrate their servers and
KVM switches from a remote office workstation. The required optional
IP or Cat.5 access modules can be purchased separately and are
simply installed into the back of a U8/16-Modular KVM Switch.
This manual also covers the KVM Switch U8/16-C , another version of
this modular KVM switch series that is used only in conjunction with the
modular LINDY KVM LCD Terminals U8/16-C . U8/16-C models can
only be installed in the back of an appropriate 19” LCD drawer and do
not have a display or front panel controls fitted. Any references to front
panel display and switch buttons in this manual does not apply to the
modular version U8/16-C.
