Description

The ATEN KL1508Ai is a 1U rack-mountable Dual Rail LCD KVM over IP Switch featuring an integrated 17" LED-backlit LCD monitor with Australian keyboard layout, giving one local and one remote user simultaneous shared access to up to 8 servers via Cat 5e/6 cabling. The dual-rail design allows the LCD monitor to slide and rotate independently of the keyboard/touchpad module, while ATEN's Mouse DynaSync™ ensures seamless local and remote cursor synchronisation — ideal for Australian data centres and server rooms demanding secure, consolidated remote management.

Expandable via daisy-chaining to manage up to 256 computers across 16 switches, the KL1508Ai supports multi-interface KVM adapters (PS/2, USB, Sun, Serial) for broad server compatibility. Port selection is available via OSD, hotkey, or front-panel pushbutton, and an external console port enables additional local access. Adapter ID technology retains port configuration even when servers are relocated, minimising reconfiguration effort. Order now at iptrading.com.au — trusted by Australian IT professionals.

FAQs

Q: How many computers can the KL1508AiM manage?
A: Directly, the KL1508AiM manages up to 8 computers via its RJ-45 KVM ports. By daisy-chaining up to 16 units together, you can control a total of 256 computers from a single console — making it highly scalable for growing data centres.

Q: What types of servers and operating systems are supported?
A: The KL1508AiM supports a wide range of platforms through its multi-interface KVM adapters, including PS/2, USB, Sun, and Serial interfaces. This covers standard PCs, Macs, Sun workstations, and serial-connected devices running virtually any operating system.

Q: Can multiple users access the KVM simultaneously?
A: Yes. The KL1508AiM provides 1-Local / 1-Remote shared access, allowing one local console user and one remote IP user to access the connected servers at the same time. Port Share Mode also enables multiple users to view the same server session concurrently.

Q: What cabling is required to connect servers to the KL1508AiM?
A: Servers connect to the switch via Cat 5e or Cat 6 UTP cabling using ATEN KVM adapter cables (sold separately). This high-density RJ-45 approach keeps cable runs tidy and allows servers to be located up to the standard Cat 5e/6 reach from the switch.

A: Yes. The KL1508AIM-AXA-AU variant is specifically configured with an Australian keyboard layout and is supplied with an AU power cord, making it ready for immediate deployment in Australian data centres and server rooms without any additional accessories.
