GCL1908W: Widescreen VGA-video, short-depth* LCD KVM console drawer
with a built-in 8-port VGA / USB / PS2 KVM switch
IOGEAR's GCL1908W 18.5" widescreen LCD KVM console offers a space-saving, streamlined approach to IT environments by integrating a 18.5" widescreen LCD monitor, keyboard, and touchpad in one unit. The LCD drawer supports an external USB mouse and external console ports for added flexibility.
A single GCL1908W can control up to eight (8) computers.
Ease of Installation and Operation
The LCD display is built into the cover. The keyboard and touchpad are built into the base.
Setup is fast and easy with the included mounting brackets. There is no software to configure, no installation routines and no incompatibility problems. Simply slide the console module section out; flip the cover up; and you are ready to go to work. When finished, flip the cover down and slide the console module back into the rack.
Extra Console Port for Redundant Operation
IOGEAR GCL1908W provides an extra console port on the back. In case, the main screen, keyboard, or touch pad failed by any accidents, an external monitor, keyboard and mouse can be connected for urgent operation.
