Thinklogical’s™ VX80 KVM Matrix Switch features redundant

Power Supplies and Controller Modules for uninterrupted
performance, even during system reconfiguration, updates or
debug. The VX80 remains fully functional with only one Power
Supply installed or with one Controller activated.

NOTE: When using a single Controller, the module on the left

(Primary) must be used.
