2. Overview

The ServSwitch™ DT Basic II enables you to access two IBM® compatible computers
from one keyboard, monitor, and mouse. To switch between computers, simply
press the push button or enter hotkey commands from your keyboard. There is no
interface card or software to install. The ServSwitch is independent of the
computer operating system, allowing the attached computers to run different
applications.

The space-saving design enables you to connect all the cables to the back of the
ServSwitch, saving space on your desk.

The ServSwitch DT Basic II also features automatic mouse conversion, so you can
connect computers with either PS/2 or serial mouse ports and control both
computers from one PS/2 mouse. The ServSwitch automatically identifies the
mouse and switches to the proper mouse protocol.
