VIP-602-KMV2 2 Port Dual-Head USB - PS/2 Hybrid KVM Switch

Description: The VIP-602 "MegaSwitch"" Dual-Head USB-PS/2 Hybrid KVM switch allows one PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse, audio speakers / mic, and two monitors to control any combination of two USB or PS/2, dual-head / dual video PCs or Servers. It is the ideal solution for dual-head KVM switch applications requiring access to two USB and / or PS/2 computers, without the clutter and expense of additional keyboards, mice, audio speakers, microphones, and monitors. The VIP-602 device inputs support all popular PS/2 keyboards and PS/2 mice and video resolution up to 1600 by 1200 at 75Hz per monitor. The VIP-602 PC connections support either PS/2 keyboard and mouse, or USB 2.0. The unique architecture of the MegaSwitch provides a dedicated microprocessor for each PC. This feature makes it possible to "hot-plug" keyboards and mice, at any time, and power the connected PCs up and down, in any order. At the heart of the MegaSwitch is Vetra's advanced keyboard and mouse emulation technology which provides error free boot up and mouse driver loading for each connected PC, and allows the MegaSwitch to operate transparently with all PCs, PC operating systems, and applications. The VIP-602 Dual-Head USB - PS/2 Hybrid KVM switch comes in a four standard configurations, is compact in design, easy to install and operate, and is ideally suited for desktop use, however, for applications requiring rack mounting, an optional 2U height rack mount tray is available (see Accessories ). The VIP-602 Dual-Head USB - PS/2 KVM Switch is also available as a Multi-Head or Tri-Head KVM Switch (models for 3 video monitors per PC). All Vetra USB - PS/2 KVM Switches are designed and manufactured in the USA for use around the world for enterprise mission-critical applications and are backed by a Limited 3-year Warranty. For more information on this product or our complete line of KVM solutions, please contact us at sales@vetra.com OPERATION: All VIP-602 USB - PS/2 Dual-Head KVM switch models can select the active PC via a keyboard "hot-key" sequence ( [scroll lock] + [1] for PC1, or [scroll lock] + [2] for PC2 ) or by a push button(s) located on the front panel of the KVM Switch. The Direct Entry models (as indicated by -DE in the model number) have an individual push button switch for each PC channel. The non-DE models have a single push button switch (NEXT PC) which toggles between the two connected PCs. In all cases and on all models, when a PC channel is selected, an LED on the front panel illuminates to indicate the selected PC while additional front panel LED's indicate which PC channels are powered. Upon selection, the intelligence in the MegaSwitch correctly sets the keyboard's status indicators, CAPS, SCROLL, and NUM Lock, as these settings may be different for each PC. The keyboard and/or mouse may be disconnected and re-connected (hot-plugged), or exchanged at any time without having to power down the connected PC's. This feature is useful if a connected device fails during a critical application.
