USB and PS/2 KVM Switching Built for SMB Server Room Environments

If you are tasked with providing multi-platform support but have limited rack space in your SMB 

server room, help has arrived. A new series of Avocent KVM switches provides support for your 

USB and/or PS/2 keyboards and mice. The AutoView switch also provides support for USB, PS/2, 

Sun®, and serial target devices.

Designed to fi t your SMB server room environment are the 8-port AutoView 1415 single-user 

switch, and the multi-user 8-port AutoView 1515 and 16-port AutoView 2015 and AutoView 

2030 switches. Each switch includes a convenient On-Screen Display (OSD) that allows easy 

confi guration and quick server selection.

The AutoView series includes two unique cabling options. Integrated access cables offer 

server room environments fl exible cabling lengths of 7, 10 and 15 feet between the target 

device and the switch. Integrated access cables provide PS/2 and USB support. The server 

interface module, with PS/2, USB, Sun and Serial support provides up to 100 feet between 

the target device and the switch with your existing cabling infrastructure. Both cabling options 

automatically assign and retain unique server names for each attached server, which simplifi es 

installation and eases reconfi guration.
