## Long description

The ATEN CS1308 Rack mounting Black is a 1U rack-mountable KVM switch designed for centralized control of multiple computers from a single console. It supports VGA video with a maximum resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels and offers a scan interval of up to 255 seconds. The unit is housed in a metal casing, consumes 5 W of power, and is RoHS compliant. The CS1308 provides access and control for up to 8 directly connected computers and, through cascading up to 8 additional CS1308 units, enables control of as many as 64 computers from one keyboard, mouse and monitor console. It supports both USB and PS/2 connections for the local console and for connected computers.
Advantages
The switch combines rack-mount compatibility and a compact 1U form factor with a durable metal enclosure, making it suitable for equipment racks and space-constrained environments. Its support for VGA video at resolutions up to 2048 x 1536 ensures clear image output for legacy and mixed video environments. Low power consumption (5 W) reduces energy use in multi-device installations, and RoHS compliance demonstrates adherence to environmental standards. Cascading capability allows scalable expansion up to 64 connected computers while retaining centralized control.
Suitable for
 Server rooms and equipment racks requiring centralized KVM access
 IT maintenance and system administration workflows managing multiple legacy VGA systems
 Control stations where a single keyboard, video (VGA) monitor and mouse must service several computers
 Environments combining USB and PS/2 peripherals across connected systems

How to use
Install the CS1308 into a standard 19-inch equipment rack using the included mounting hardware so the front panel is accessible for console connection and user controls. Connect a VGA monitor and a keyboard and mouse to the console ports using either USB or PS/2 interfaces as required. Attach up to eight target computers to the unit using the appropriate KVM cabling for VGA video and USB or PS/2 peripheral signals. If greater capacity is needed, cascade additional CS1308 units according to the manufacturer's cascading instructions to scale control up to 64 systems. Use the front-panel controls or keyboard hotkeys to switch between connected computers and to adjust scan settings if automatic scanning is used.
Usage recommendations
Ensure all VGA and peripheral cables are fully seated and of suitable length and shielding to maintain signal integrity. For installations with multiple cascaded units, plan cable routing and rack spacing to allow adequate ventilation around the metal chassis. When mixing USB and PS/2 systems, verify peripheral compatibility before deployment. Regularly check firmware and documentation from the manufacturer for any maintenance or configuration updates.
