Consolidate your server infrastructure and eliminate server-room console clutter with the data-center grade TRENDnet 8-Port Stackable Rackmount KVM Switch (Model TK-801R). Designed for network operation centers (NOC), server closets, corporate IT labs, and industrial control rooms, this high-density hardware controller allows an administrator to manage up to eight independent computer nodes or server chassis using a single desktop keyboard, mouse, and high-resolution monitor. By centralizing management terminal inputs, the TK-801R drastically reduces equipment expenditures, saves premium rack space, and lowers operational power footprints.

Constructed within a rugged, 1U EIA standard 19-inch metal enclosure, this professional KVM matrix delivers ultimate scalability. It features an advanced daisy-chain stack interface that allows up to 16 compatible KVM units to be linked together, putting management access of up to 128 multi-platform servers under the command of a single master console. Administrators can toggle instantly between server nodes using convenient front-panel manual pushbuttons, rapid-fire keyboard Hot-Key commands, or an intuitive On-Screen Display (OSD) navigation menu. Equipped with intelligent microprocessor terminal emulation on every port, the TK-801R simultaneously maintains persistent keyboard and mouse signals across all unselected systems to eliminate boot-up errors and peripheral dropouts.
