With the Hawking CS164, there is no better way to save time, money, and space.
The 4-port KVM Rack Mount Switch is an ideal SOHO solution for controlling four computers or servers with a
single keyboard, monitor, and mouse. By allowing a single console to manage all the attached PCs, the 4­port KVM Rack Mount Switch eliminates the expense of purchasing a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse
for each PC, and saves all the extra space as well. It also eliminates the inconvenience and unnecessary
effort involved in constantly moving around from one PC to another.
Setup is fast and easy. Installation process is plug and play - there is no software to configure. To access any
PC connected to the system, there are two convenient methods: (1) using the push button port selection
switch located on top of the unit's panel; (2) entering HotKey combinations from the keyboard. In addition, a
powerful Auto Scan Control feature allows you to auto scan and monitor the activities of all operating PCs on
the installation one by one.
