## Long description

The Digitus Modular Cat.5 KVM switch enables flexible administration of a server rack by allowing control of up to 8 computers from a single console. The unit fits a 1U rack space and is compatible with Digitus modular KVM consoles (DS-72210, DS-72211). It supports connections via USB or PS/2 (using Cat.5 adapters) and VGA signal transmission over Cat.5 cable with a maximum distance of 60 m. The switch requires a compatible 17" or 19" modular console, keyboard and Cat.5 adapters for operation and is available with optional IP modules for remote browser-based access.
Advantages
The modular Cat.5 design provides adaptable configuration options so the KVM switch can be tailored to specific console setups and expanded or upgraded as needed. Its compact 1U housing saves rack space while supporting up to 8 servers. USB keyboard and mouse support, VGA over Cat.5 transmission up to 60 m, and optional IP functionality increase deployment flexibility for small to medium server rooms.
