Although multiple computers are connected to the KVM, typically a smaller number of computers can be controlled at any given time. Modern devices have also added the ability to share other peripherals like USB devices and audio.\r\nBefore the mouse became relevant in server switching applications, the term Keyboard Video Switch (KVS) was used to describe keyboard and monitor switching devices. With the increased adoption of Microsoft Windows, the mouse and other I/O ports in peripheral switching became prevalent. Remigius Shatas, the founder of Cybex (a popular peripheral switch manufacturer at that time) expanded the initialism to Keyboard, Video and Mouse (KVM) in 1995. Some years later, Universal Serial Bus (USB) began to become the new industry standard for connecting computer peripherals.\r\nAs a result of the growing need to switch peripherals (such as touchscreens) in addition to the keyboard, mouse and monitor, some companies are now selling &quot;KVMP&quot; switch devices (standing for keyboard, video, mouse and peripheral).\r\nA KVM Switch is a hardware device, used in data centers, that allows the control of multiple computers from a single keyboard, monitor and mouse (KVM). This switch then allows data center personnel to connect to any server in the rack. A common example of home use is to enable the use of the full-size keyboard, mouse and monitor of the home PC with a portable device such as a laptop, tablet PC or PDA, or a computer using a different operating system.\r\nKVM switches offer different methods of connecting the computers. Depending on the product, the switch may present native connectors on the device where standard keyboard, monitor and mouse cables can be attached. Another method to have a single DB25 or similar connector that aggregated connections at the switch with three independent keyboard, monitor and mouse cables to the computers. Subsequently, these were replaced by a special KVM cable which combined the keyboard, video and mouse cables in a single wrapped extension cable. The advantage of the last approach is in the reduction of the number of cables between the KVM switch and connected computers. The disadvantage is the cost of these cables.\r\nThe method of switching from one computer to another depends on the switch. The original peripheral switches (Rose, circa 1988) used a rotary switch while active electronic switches (Cybex, circa 1990) used push buttons on the KVM device. In both cases, the KVM aligns operation between different computers and the users' keyboard, monitor and mouse (user console).\r\nIn 1992-1993, Cybex Corporation engineered keyboard hot-key commands. Today, most KVMs are controlled through non-invasive hot-key commands (e.g. Ctrl+Ctrl, Scroll Lock+Scroll Lock and the Print Screen keys). Hot-key switching is often complemented with an on-screen display system that displays a list of connected computers.\r\nKVM switches differ in the number of computers that can be connected. Traditional switching configurations range from 2 to 64 possible computers attached to a single device. Enterprise-grade devices interconnected via daisy-chained and/or cascaded methods can support a total of 512 computers equally accessed by any given user console.","materialsDescription":" <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What is KVM?</span>\r\nKVM is an abbreviation for Keyboard (keyboard), Video (video) and Mouse (mouse), which connect to computer ports. KVM products connected to various ports transmit or switch computer signals.\r\nConsequently, KVM is a designation of a group of technologies, not special brands or companies.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What is KVM technology?</span>\r\nThe acronym KVM means keyboard, video, and mouse, and refers to computer ports. KVM equipment connects to these and other ports, from where computer signals expand or switch. In this way, KVM stands for technology, not a brand or a company.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Who needs KVM?</span>\r\nKVM products can be used by anyone using computers.\r\nKVM products are used for:\r\n<ul><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Noise reduction.</span> Ability to move computers from radio studios.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Save space.</span> Ability to move computers from an air traffic control tower.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Protect computers from damage.</span> The ability to move computers from the test room to a secure server room.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Create more ergonomic consoles.</span> The ability to avoid heat generation by moving computers.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Reduce the number of peripherals.</span> Ability to control multiple computers using one monitor, keyboard and mouse.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Simplification of administration.</span> The ability to facilitate maintenance and administration of computers by moving to a central server room.</li><li><span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Create flexible working concepts.</span> The ability for users to access the computer (s) from various consoles.</li></ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What is a KVM switch?</span>\r\nThe KVM switch connects several computers that can be controlled from a single console (monitor, keyboard, mouse).\r\nSwitching between computers is carried out through the button on the switch or using hotkeys. Depending on size, KVM switches also support OSD technology for switching between computers.\r\nFor example, Guntermann &amp; Druck offers KVM switches for DVI and VGA signals that allow the user to control from two to 64 computers.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What is a KVM transmitter?</span>\r\nThe KVM transmitter transmits keyboard, video, and mouse signals to control the computer remotely.\r\nEach KVM transmission system consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter connects to the computer keyboard, video, and mouse interfaces, while the receiver connects to a remote console. Both devices are connected by one or more cables.\r\nVarious suppliers offer KVM transmitters for DVI and VGA signals, which use CAT cable (“twisted pair”) or optical fiber for transmission. Signals such as audio, RS-232, USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 can also be transmitted.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What do I need to work with KVM switches?</span>\r\nDifferent KVM switches have different requirements. In most cases, all you need is a KVM switch, the required number of cables to connect all your computers, keyboard, monitor and mouse, and, in fact, the computers themselves. This is the basic configuration; more complex systems may require more components.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What is a matrix KVM switch?</span>\r\nThe matrix KVM switch combines multiple transmitters and switches in one device.\r\nMultiple consoles can access multiple computers - even over long distances. Systems are mainly divided by the type of video signal transmitted. Matrix KVM switches are available for expanding DVI, VGA and other signal signals.\r\nIn addition, matrix switchers are divided into compact devices (specific device characteristics, such as the G&amp;D CompactCenter) and modular systems (such as the G&amp;D DVICenter).\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">Why are some KVM switches so much cheaper than others?</span>\r\nAs with all products, some of them have more options. Certain switches offer equipment sharing via USB, On-Screen Display (OSD), audio support, emulation ports, multi-platform capabilities, built-in converters, and shipped with cables and power supplies. You decide whether you need these options or not.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What is an OSD?</span>\r\nOSD, short for On-Screen Display, is a graphical representation of computers connected to the KVM switch, allowing you to select the computer you want without pressing the buttons on the KVM switch or using hotkeys. If you have a multi-user switch, this function can also show you which computer each user currently has access to.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">What is a video splitter?</span>\r\nThe video splitter allows you to split the VGA/DVI signal and display it on multiple monitors. This product also has several options. You can send these signals via a CAT5 cable or a standard VGA cable. You also have the option of transferring audio for multimedia applications.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">What is a remote reboot?</span>\r\nRemote reboot allows you to reboot servers from anywhere in the world using the Internet.
