16-port USB/PS/2 KVM switch
The ATEN CS1316 lets a single USB or PS/2 console manage up to 16 computers from one rack-mountable unit. It is built for server rooms and labs where operators need direct, local access to multiple heterogeneous systems without extra software.
Sustained multi-system access
The switch draws 6.6 W at 5.3 V and is rated for continuous operation between 0 °C and 50 °C with humidity up to 80 % RH non-condensing. LED indicators show on-line and selected status for each of the 16 ports, and AutoScan cycles through connected computers at intervals from 1 to 255 seconds without operator intervention.
Replaces individual monitor/keyboard sets
One CS1316 removes the need for separate displays and input devices per server, saving rack space and cabling. Cascading two levels expands control to 256 computers, making the jump worthwhile when a single console must oversee dozens of legacy and current platforms.
