Aten CS1184D4 [33/46] Chassis intrusion detection

ATEN Secure KVM User Manual

Chassis Intrusion Detection

To help prevent malicious tampering with the ATEN Secure KVM Switch, the switch (or the RPS)

becomes inoperable and all front panel LEDs on the Secure KVM switch (except Power) or all Remote

Port Selector (RPS) LEDs flash constantly when a chassis intrusion (such as the cover being removed)

is detected (by the switch or by the RPS).

The intrusion detection protection is an always-on function. If all front panel LEDs on the Secure KVM

Switch (except Power) flash continuously, all Remote Port Selector (RPS) LEDs flash, or either

enclosure appears breached, avoid using the product and contact your ATEN dealer.

cable to the installation.
