## Long description

Designed for server racks and multi-system environments, this black 1U unit centralises management, streamlines server maintenance and supports quick switching between connected machines. The switch offers both USB and PS/2 console compatibility and includes a front-accessible USB port for connecting peripherals when used with USB cable sets.
