Maintaining effective IT operations is crucial to keeping businesses and services running. With workforces navigating the adjustments of the new normal, sustaining 24/7 uninterrupted IT services while remaining competitive has become more mission-critical than ever. Meanwhile, as the amount of data has continued to grow exponentially over the years, boosting operational efficiency remains the focal point for data center and server room professionals as they strive to streamline routine procedures in automated processes, such as data entry, feature testing, BIOS flash, system updates, and much more.
The CS18216, featuring superior 4K video quality, USB 3.0 peripheral agility, and space-saving rackmount capability, allows 16 computers to be centrally controlled via a single console where IT engineers are enabled to expedite system operations by configuring multiple units simultaneously instead of working one at a time; routine or repetitive tasks and procedures can be promptly replicated and broadcasted on multiple computers in seconds, slashing time, space, and cost, while pursuing strengthened enterprise productivity.
Spectacular 4K DCI Visual Performance
With connection to HDMI or DisplayPort-enabled computers, 4K USB 3.0 Rack KVM Switch series effortlessly enriches console desktop operations with up to 4K DCI (4096 x 2160 @60 Hz) visual excellence. Video sources of high resolution visuals and imaging are displayed with great precision for improved analysis.
Video DynaSync™
Empowered by patented ATEN technology – Video DynaSync™, Rack KVM Switches deliver a smooth viewing experience by maintaining the ideal video settings under all operating systems when switching between ports, speeding up switching between systems, and powering up uninterruptedly while eliminating boot-up display problems.
Broadcast Mode to Expedite Timely Configurations
The practical and efficient Broadcast Mode can be easily invoked via OSD or serial commands to perform the same task or command simultaneously on all connected computers across different OS platforms, including software installation and upgrading, function testing, BIOS flash update, system-wide shutdown, and more, making server management effortless and hassle-free.
Cascadability to Upscale Server Management Efficiency
The number of connected computers can be scaled up to 256 by cascading the CS18216 in 2 levels, leaving room and flexibility for network expansion when needed.
Resilient Multi-Display Setup to Facilitate Live Feeds
When a large amount of complex content needs to be viewed at once or there’s a need to examine intensive data for analysis, up to 8 Rack KVM Switches can be stacked up to allow up to 8 monitors to be set up in a multi-display configuration (such as dual- / triple- / quad-display) to facilitate live feeds among computers at the console desktop
Features:
The ATEN CS18216 16-Port USB 3.0 4K HDMI KVM Switch can effectively access and control up to 16 HDMI computers from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse, and HDMI monitor console. The CS18216 supports high video quality up to 4K DCI (4096 x 2160 @ 60Hz), presenting crystal-clear visuals.
To meet the needs of easy expansion and flexibility, the CS18216 can control up to 256 computers by cascading to two levels for a single console. Furthermore, the CS18216 supports multi-display function by stacking up to eight CS18216 units to compare and analyze information on 8 monitors at most, which substantially streamlines the working environment.
With two patented ATEN technologies – Video DynaSync™ and EDID Expert™, the CS18216 can optimize display resolution, accelerate switching between ports and power up smoothly while eliminating boot-up display problems.
Besides, the CS18216 comes with a built-in USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub delivering data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps, allowing users to speed up operations and share USB peripherals instantly. For user-friendly port selection methods, the CS18216 offers pushbuttons, hotkeys, RS-232 commands, and OSD with newly-designed UI, bringing effortless and intuitive operations.
