Overview
The CS-82A / CS-84A 2/4-Port PS/2 KVM (Keyboard, Video,
Mouse) Switch is a control unit that allows access to two/four
computers from a single PS/2 console (keyboard, monitor and
mouse). Before the development of the Master View, the only
way to control multiple computer configurations from a single
console was through a complex and costly network system. Now,
with the CS-82A / CS-84A, you can easily access two/four
computers in a cost effective manner.
Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate
ports is all that is entailed. There is no software to configure; there
are no installation routines, and no incompatibility problems.
Since the CS-82A / CS-84A intercepts keyboard input directly, it
works on any hardware platform and with all operating systems.*
The CS-82A / CS-84A provides two convenient methods to
access the computers connected to the system: 1) Port selection
pushbuttons located on the unit's front panel; and 2) Hotkey
combinations entered from the keyboard.
There is no better way to save time and money than with a CS82A / CS-84A installation. Since a single console manages all of
the computers, the CS-82A / CS-84A setup: 1) eliminates the
expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard, monitor,
and mouse for each computer; 2) saves all the space those extra
components would take up; 3) saves on energy costs; and 4)
eliminates the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in
constantly moving around from one computer to another.
Note: Mac and Sun systems may require an additional adapter.
