KVM Switches
KVM Switches are devices which allow control of multiple computers via keyboard, video and mouse ports using either a remotely connected user console or a KVM over IP style solution. Our most popular switches are from Rextron KVM and include everything from 2 port to 100+ port systems with integrated LCD KVM Drawer Consoles.
