SERVSWITCH™ WIZARD MP

2. Introduction

The ServSwitch™ Wizard MP is a high-performance multiplatform keyboard-,
monitor-, mouse-, and audio-sharing device that supports a wide range of IBM

and Sun

compatible hardware and software platforms, including some high-end

IBM PS/2

compatible computers (IBM RS/6000

, Compaq

Alpha

, and SGI™).

The KV805A model also supports computers with USB keyboard and mouse ports,
including USB versions of the Apple

Macintosh

, G3™, G4™, etc.

2.1 Features and Benefits

• Control multiple PC and/or Sun compatible CPUs (both desktop and

portable) from a single user station (keyboard, monitor, mouse, stereo speakers
or headphones, and microphone). This includes IBM RS/6000

, IBM

ThinkPad

(with its “Y” cables), Compaq

Alpha

, and SGI™ computers.

• KV805A also supports computers with USB interfaces, including USB CPUs by

Apple.

• Supports computers with VGA (HD15) video ports and PS/2 (6-pin mini-DIN),

Sun (8-pin mini-DIN), or (KV805A only) USB keyboard and mouse ports. With
adapters, can also support computers with legacy Sun (13W3) video ports,
PC/AT (5-pin DIN) keyboard ports, or RS-232 serial (DB9 or DB25) mouse
ports.

• Supports PS/2 (6-pin mini-DIN) or Sun (8-pin mini-DIN) keyboards and mice.

With adapter, also supports PC/AT (5-pin DIN) keyboards.

• Supports all popular PC and Sun operating systems. The KV805A supports

Mac

OS version 8.6 and higher.

• Seamless conversion between different hardware platforms.

• Continuous keyboard and mouse emulation on all ports ensures problem-free

computer bootup. And because all ports are simultaneously active, all attached
CPUs can be booted at the same time.

• On the KV805A model, continuous USB-device emulation on all ports ensures

quick and reliable switching without having to wait several seconds for the USB
bus to enumerate.

• Uses color-coded one-to-many cables for neat, easy CPU connections.

• Automatically detects attached hardware.
