Eight-port KVM control for server rooms
The ATEN CS1308KIT is an eight-port KVM switch that lets a single USB or PS/2 console manage up to eight computers. It ships with eight USB KVM cables in four-foot, six-foot and ten-foot lengths, so the kit is ready for rack deployment without extra cable purchases. Administrators who need to reduce desk clutter in a data centre or lab will find the combined switch and cable bundle convenient.
Sustained operation within rated thermal limits
The unit is rated for continuous operation from zero to fifty degrees Celsius and storage from minus twenty to sixty degrees Celsius, with humidity up to eighty percent non-condensing. LED indicators show on-line and selected status for each port, while AutoScan cycles through connected systems at intervals from one to two hundred fifty-five seconds. These specifications support long monitoring sessions without thermal throttling concerns.
Rack-mount installation with cascading option
The switch measures seventeen inches wide, six point three inches deep and one point seven inches high, weighing four point two pounds, fitting a standard rack shelf. Dual-interface SPHD connectors accept both USB and PS/2 keyboard and mouse cables from the computers. Firmware upgrades use an RJ-eleven port, and the switch can cascade two levels to control up to sixty-four computers when expanded.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the CS1308KIT produce when running continuously in a rack?
The unit operates between 0 and 50 °C and has no fan, so it adds only passive warmth to the rack.
Which console connectors must I already have to use the switch?
You need a keyboard, mouse and monitor that plug into a single SPHD-18 male (yellow) port.
Can I keep my PS/2 servers and still control them from the USB console?
Yes, the dual-interface design supports both PS/2 and USB computers on the same switch.
