Chapter 1

Introduction

Overview

The ATEN CL3108 / CL3116 LCD KVM switch offers a space-saving,

streamlined approach to KVM switch technology by integrating a 18.5" LED-

backlit LCD monitor and a keyboard and touchpad into a 1U rack-mountable

sliding housing on a 8 / 16 port KVM switch. The short-depth design

maximizes space utility for equipping rack mounting devices in narrow spaces

on a rack. In addition, its LED illumination provides users with proper

visibility for operation under low-light conditions.

The CL3108 / CL3116 can control up to 8 / 16 computers on a single-station

setup, and can be cascaded for controlling up to 128 / 256 computers.

Featuring its Broadcast mode, the CL3108 / CL3116 can simultaneously issue

and spread the same commands to all connected computers for batch operation.

The Auto scan mode fulfills the need of automated monitoring by alternating

views from the selected computers at a set interval.

For enhanced security, the CL3108 / CL3116 provides two-level password and

restricts unauthorized users from viewing and controlling the computers. For

added convenience, the CL3108 / CL3116 comes with an external USB mouse

port that supports HID device for keyboard and mouse operation.

As a feature-rich LCD KVM switch, the CL3108 / CL3116 does not just

achieve but exceeds its concept for space usage optimization, superior video

quality, adaptive deployment, and operational versatility, and thus is the ideal

solution for all settings with limited space across all industries.
