Introduction
Overview
The CS62KM is a 2-port USB Cable KM Switch that enables users to control
up to 2 computers with a single keyboard and mouse. It features various
innovative port selection methods. Users can switch between the connected
computers via remote port selector, keyboard hotkey, mouse cursor, and mouse
wheels. The mouse cursor method adopts ATEN’s exclusive Boundless
Switching technology, which provides an intuitive way to switch control to
another computer by simply moving your mouse cursor across a screen border
and onto the target computer display. Move the mouse cursor in any direction
to switch the control focus without limitations.
The CS62KM’s Boundless Switching function supports up to 2 monitors,
expediting the process of switching between computers for a smooth and
hassle-free user experience. In addition to making multitasking across two
displays more efficient, this function is especially useful in emergencies that
necessitate the immediate monitoring and management of computers.
Further advanced features of the CS62KM include bus-power mode which
means no external power adapter is required. With a rich feature set, the
CS62KM is designed to simplify administrative tasks, save space, and increase
work productivity, and is especially suitable for complex multitasking
applications in control rooms in any industry.
