The CX-1708 rackmount LCD KVM console is compatible with most enterprise rack servers and network appliances that support VGA video output and USB keyboard/mouse connections.

Common compatible systems include:

• Lenovo ThinkSystem rack servers

How Servers Connect

Each server connects to the KVM switch using a single KVM cable which carries:

This allows administrators to manage multiple servers from a single rack console without needing separate monitors or keyboards.

Typical Deployment

1 × CX-1708 LCD KVM Console
Up to 8 rack servers connected directly

This allows quick switching between servers using the front panel buttons, keyboard hotkeys, or the on-screen display (OSD).
