What customers say
System administrators highly value this KVM for its exceptional space saving design, which greatly improves efficiency in dense racks. Users consistently report outstanding reliability, calling it a durable workhorse for demanding data centers. Its ability to manage both USB and legacy PS/2 connections ensures broad compatibility across mixed hardware environments. The primary drawbacks noted are the high initial investment and the functional but aging integrated LCD display quality. While it excels as a robust, space efficient access solution for specialized high density needs, the cost and display technology temper universal praise. It is viewed as a necessary, high quality tool for specific professional deployments.
