switch capability offers the added convenience of complete access to as
many as 1,000 servers or computers. Adding a multi-user KVM switch
allows server management to be performed locally from RackView or
remotely from multiple KVM workstations.
Installation RackView is very easy to install. Simply adjust the rack rail
length to the depth of your rack, slide the unit through the rack, and secure
the rack mount brackets to the rack rails.
