The ATEN LCD KVM Switch CL5708 is a space-saving 8-port KVM solution that integrates a keyboard, touchpad, and LED-backlit LCD monitor into a compact 1U Slideaway™ rack-mount chassis. Designed for professional IT environments, it allows administrators to manage multiple computers from a single console while maximizing valuable rack space.
The ATEN LCD KVM Switch CL5708 supports direct control of up to 8 computers. By daisy-chaining up to 31 additional KVM switches, a single console can manage as many as 256 computers, making it an ideal solution for growing data centers, enterprise networks, and server rooms.
Available with 17-inch, 17.3-inch Full HD, or 19-inch LED-backlit LCD monitors, the switch delivers outstanding image clarity for daily server management. The LCD module rotates up to 120 degrees, allowing users to adjust the viewing angle for maximum comfort during operation.
For organizations requiring enhanced security, selected models include an integrated fingerprint authentication reader. Combined with two-level password protection and separate administrator and user accounts, the ATEN LCD KVM Switch CL5708 ensures secure access to mission-critical systems.
Supporting both PS/2 and USB interfaces, the switch offers excellent compatibility with Windows, Linux, Mac, and Sun platforms. Automatic keyboard and mouse emulation ensures seamless switching between connected computers, while hot-plug support allows devices to be connected or removed without interrupting system operation.
The modular design separates the LCD console from the switch module, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime. Users can operate the switch through front-panel buttons, intuitive hotkeys, or the multilingual on-screen display (OSD), eliminating the need for additional software.
Whether deployed in enterprise server rooms, broadcasting facilities, financial institutions, or industrial control environments, the ATEN LCD KVM Switch CL5708 provides reliable, scalable, and efficient centralized computer management.
