Overview

The CS-1200L is a KVM console module featuring an integrated 15" LCD panel, full keyboard, and touchpad in a 1U, rack-mountable, Slideaway housing. It was developed in response to the enormous popularity of the Slideaway console found on the ACS-1208AL and ACS-1216AL KVM switches.

The ACS-1208AL/ACS-1216AL is made up of two major modules: the front-end Slideaway KVM Console module, and the back-end KVM Switch module. The CS-1200L is similar to the Console module found on the ACS-1208AL/ACS-1216AL, except it has been redesigned to serve as the front end for other Master View KVM switches, as well.

By only having to purchase the CS-1200L console module, users who already have a Master View switch can take advantage of the space saving and efficiency benefits of the ACS-1208AL/ACS-1216AL’s Slideaway console without the unnecessary expense of having to purchase its KVM Switch module.

Setup is fast and easy. Simply use the supplied KVM connector cable to link the CS-1200L’s KVM ports to the console ports of your KVM switch and you are ready to go.*

*The CS-1200L supports most Master View KVM switches that have PS/2 console port connectors. If you are unsure if your switch is supported, check with your dealer or call Aten Customer Service.
