KVM prepínač ATEN CL5708M rackový čierny 1HE 17 palcov LCD CL5708M-ATA-GG

The ATEN CL5708 Slideaway is a 1U rack-mountable KVM switch that integrates a keyboard, 17" LED-backlit LCD monitor and touchpad into a sliding housing for centralized control of multiple computers from a single PS/2 or USB console. A single unit manages up to 8 computers and can be daisy-chained with additional switches to expand control to larger server counts. The modular design allows the KVM module to be detached from the switch section for maintenance, and optional fingerprint identification can be enabled to restrict access.

Advantages

The CL5708 saves rack space by combining console components into a 1U sliding drawer and supports high-resolution video up to 1920 x 1200 for clear on-screen display. Its modular construction simplifies service and replacement of parts, while compatibility with PS/2 and USB peripherals ensures flexible connectivity. AC power operation across a wide input range makes the unit suitable for international deployments.

Suitable for

• Server rooms and data centers with limited rack space
• IT management consoles requiring centralized access to multiple servers
• Environments needing mixed PS/2 and USB peripheral support
• Installations that may expand server count via daisy-chaining

When it may not be suitable

The CL5708 is intended for rack-mounted environments and requires a 1U space; it is not suitable for desktop use or locations without standard 19" rack infrastructure. If an application demands local consoles with larger monitors or multi-monitor setups, a 17" integrated LCD may not meet those visual or ergonomic requirements.

Key specifications

• Integrated 17" LED-backlit LCD monitor
• 1U rack-mountable sliding housing
• Supports up to 8 directly connected computers (expandable via daisy-chaining)
• Console connectivity: PS/2 and USB keyboard and mouse support
• Maximum supported resolution: 1920 x 1200
• Construction: metal and plastic
• Power: AC input with wide voltage range (100–240 V)

How to use

Mount the CL5708 into a standard 19" rack occupying one rack unit. Connect the console keyboard, monitor and touchpad to the front console ports and run KVM cables from the switch’s ports to each server. Configure peripheral type (PS/2 or USB) as required and, if used, set up the optional fingerprint authentication system to control access. For expansion, daisy-chain additional compatible KVM switches according to the manufacturer’s instructions to increase the number of manageable computers.

What to consider before purchase

• Available rack space (requires 1U in a 19" rack)
• Required console size (built-in 17" LCD) and supported resolution
• Need for PS/2 versus USB peripheral compatibility
• Whether server expansion via daisy-chaining will be needed
• Option for fingerprint access if enhanced physical security is required

Recommendations

For reliable operation, install the CL5708 in a properly ventilated rack, use high-quality KVM cables for video and peripheral connections, and follow the manufacturer’s guidance when daisy-chaining additional switches or enabling fingerprint authentication.
