1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing LevelOne KVM-0830/1630 Combo KVM Switch. The KVM
Switches offer the most reliable and efficient way of managing multiple computers in server
rooms where space is at a premium. On Screen Display (OSD) features computer naming,
computer selection, status indication, auto scan and much more. Up to 128 servers can be
easily managed by cascading multiple KVM switches to expand the capacity.
Revolutionized video enhancement technology ensures superb quality up to 1920 x 1440.
KVM-0830/1630 supports host PC with PS/2 and USB interface. The convenient HDDB-15
to VGA+PS/2+USB cable allows user to connect to different kinds of PC interfaces by the
same cable. Users no longer need to prepare two kinds of cables for their PCs or servers
with different kinds of interfaces. Users can save their time and cost when building their
system.
Besides the USB console port, KVM-0830/1630 provide an Cat.5 remote console port for
users to access KVM switch remotely with the KVM-9007 Cat.5 Receiver. After making
connection between KVM switch and Cat.5 receiver by Cat.5/5e/6 cable, users can control
their system remotely and the distance can be up to 300 meters. Users can use their
existing LAN cables to do the remote control, this also saves their cost and reduce the
complexity. Some server room environments are too noisy for people or unsuitable to work
there for a long time, this remote control feature is an ideal solution for these situations.
