When you switch USB Hub from one PC to another and there are many USB devices are attached to the PC, it will take about 5~10 seconds for all USB devices initialization. So, to switch port will take more time than the switching time of conventional PS/2 KVM switch.

No. No software has to be loaded or used for the Raritan KVM Switch; it is 100% software-independent.

This is becoming more of a common problem because a lot of computers are now coming out with just USB connections. The way around this is to either purchase a USB to Serial port converter, or contact the manufacturer of the product to see if they have a USB connection for the instrument.

KVM is the industry term for Keyboard-Video-Mouse. A KVM switch allows single or multiple workstations to have local or remote access to multiple computers located in server rooms or on the desktop regardless of their platforms and operating systems.

Rose KVM switches offer many different methods of switching computers depending on which model best suits your application.

Obtain a USB hub that has several USB ports (available at electronics stores). Use the hub to connect the other USB devices. Now connect your Companion 5 speaker system to a USB port on the computer. You need to use the USB connection to provide audio processing for 5.1 digital sources, but you can also connect the audio output jack on your computer to the input on your Companion 5 control pod, using a 1/8-inch-stereo-male-to-1/8-inch-stereo-male audio cable.

Connect-Tek KVM switches are expandable using both Bus and Chaining technology methods. Contact a Connect-Tek Tech Support Team Member for details on expanding your current configuration.

Yes. If your MAC has a USB port this can be done inexpensively for example using the Aten Petite or Rose UKBL-2PU both allow for USB computers although require you to use a PS2 type keyboard. If you need to use your MAC (USB) keyboard, the 2 port Rextron KAG12 or 4 Port Rextron KAG14 are both reasonably priced options.

The USB Mini Type A port and the supplied adapter cable are used to connect the PocketDISH to a USB mass storage device, such as a USB camera, card reader or flash drive.

KVM switches have traditionally provided cost savings in reducing energy and equipment costs while freeing up valuable real estate in a server room/computer room. When KVM switches are used in conjunction with racks and enclosures, additional floor space is gained and cable management is made much simpler.

No, the 100TX ports, the fixed and the optional transceiver, are for 100TX only and will not support 10Base-T. If a 10Base-T port is connected to the 100TX port, the switch may attempt to auto-negotiate to 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps and end up in a nonfunctional state. The IEEE 802.3u standard specifies a maximum possible length of 100 meters of Category 5 cable for the 100TX connection. This is a point-to-point maximum length specified for a single cable.

Answer: A KVM switch is a device that allows controlling and accessing multiple (2 or more) computers/servers from just one (or more) console(s) (keyboard, monitor and mouse).
