8-port, 17-inch VGA/USB/PS-2 LCD KVM console drawer/switch 

with keyboard and touchpad LED illumination and USB peripheral sharing 

• Exclusive LED illumination light - designed by ATEN to illuminate the keyboard and touchpad to allow visibility in low-light conditions
• Integrated KVM console with 17-inch LED-backlit LCD monitor in a Slideaway™ housing
• Daisy-chain up to 31 additional units - control up to 256 computers from a single console
• USB port allows each computer to access USB peripherals

CL5708 Slideaway™ LCD KVMP switch is a control unit that allows access to multiple computers from a single PS/2 or USB KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) console. A single CL5708 can control up to 8 computers. As many as 31 additional KVM switches can be daisy-chained to the CL5708, so that up to 256 computers can all be controlled from a single KVM console.

CL5708 offers a space-saving, streamlined approach to KVM switch technology by integrating a keyboard, 17-inch LED-backlit LCD monitor, and touchpad in a 1U rack-mountable sliding housing.

CL5708 incorporates a single USB hub for sharing USB devices on a one at a time basis among first tier servers. This allows updates and software installations to be performed from the common console, without needing to connect an external drive to each server or interfere with your network traffic.

CL5708 is built on a modular design. The KVM section can be detached from the switch section for convenient maintenance and repair.
