Subject: Rackmount KVM switches (http://www.addertec.com/prod04.htm) AdderView OSD - AV8OSD SmartViewPro - SVPro 8 AdderViewOSD - AdderViewOSD is an extension to the AdderView range. Supporting up to eight computers in a single box solution, and allowing multiple units to be cascaded together, AdderViewOSD offers exceptional value for money. An intuitive On Screen Display selection menu is provided allowing you to name all your computers individually. This makes channel selection easy as you no longer have to remember a channel number, just connect by selecting a name! In addition to the AdderView desktop features, AdderViewOSD also provides an expansion port that allows remote control operation of the switch. AdderViewOSD is a desktop switch but an optional rack mount kit is also available. A multi-function numeric LED display shows you the channel that you are currently connected to, data activity and the power status of the switch. SmartViewPro - When you need to control and monitor multiple CPUs locally or remotely the SmartViewPro is the switch to use. With two very high performance video, keyboard and mouse control ports allowing remote or local access the SmartViewPro really sets a new standard for multiple CPU controllers. Add to this support for wheel type mice, 'on the fly' programming, password access and On Screen display and the SmartViewPro stands out from the crowd. Most KVM switches only allow one controlling keyboard, monitor and mouse to be
connected as standard and can be costly, or impossible, to modify for dual location access. SmartViewPro provides dual control and monitor ports so there s no more running between your office and the server room.
