SM-DVN-82X is a DVI/HDMI KVM switch capable of managing 8 computers through two user consoles (2x monitors, 2x USB keyboard and mouse, and 2x sets of speakers), and share USB devices such as printers, memory devices, scanners, etc. With multi-user support, SM-DVN-82X can accommodate up to 2 users, simultaneously accessing and concurrently controlling anyone of the eight connected computers.
The video connectors on the unit are DVI-D, which allows support for HDMI using active adapters or cables. When using a DVI or an HDMI monitor, computers can be a mix of either DVI or HDMI.
SM-DVN-82X supports video resolution of up to 2560x1600 @ 60Hz with zero pixel loss from TMDS signal correction.
SM-DVN-82X can be utilized concurrently by up to 2 users, allowing for efficient usage and sharing of computing resources. The front panel console permits each user to easily access and switch between the connected computers. The centralization of input computers and user access consoles reduces the amount of cabling and the number of workstations required for complex computing environments, thereby facilitating organization and simplicity.
The main function of this KVM switch is to centralize the access of several computer into a single, comprehensive KVM station. Its USB 2.0 support allows users at the console to access USB devices that would otherwise be unavailable on conventional KVM switches. For example, it allows the use of a flash memory drive or camera without having to plug it directly into the remote computer. SM-DVN-82X is a perfect solution for the medical or industrial field where it may not be practical or safe to have one or more CPUs in the general vicinity.
Flexible Control
Any external device or program supporting RS-232 can control SM-DVN-82X. SM-DVN-82X uses a very simple protocol, enabling easy integration with RS-232 control devices.
Hot-key functionality enables the user to switch and control all the different functions of the KVM switch by using the keyboard.
Flexible Sharing - Independent and Simultaneous Device Selection
SM-DVN-82X enables the use of a USB keyboard and mouse on one computer while other USB peripherals such as speakers, scanners and printers are connected to other computer sources. SM-DVN-82X maintains the ability to switch all connected devices to any one of the computer sources as with any other KVM switch on the market.
