Four-port KVM for small server rooms
The Avocent SC240-001 is a four-port KVM switch designed for administrators who need to control up to four computers from a single console. It fits environments such as branch offices, test benches or small data closets where space and budget are limited. Operators can switch between systems without moving between keyboards or monitors. It is not suited for installations that require more than four connected hosts or remote IP access.
Single QXGA console with universal power
The bundle provides one monitor port supporting QXGA resolution at 2048 x 1536, so the attached display shows the selected computer at its native quality. An internal power supply accepts 100 V AC to 240 V AC, allowing the unit to operate worldwide without an external adapter. No additional cables or software licences are included, so buyers must source their own keyboard, mouse and video leads for each connected machine.
Handles four systems at QXGA, stops at four ports
The switch comfortably manages four computers at full QXGA resolution, giving clear video for typical server management tasks. Headroom ends at the fourth port; adding a fifth system would require a second switch or a larger model. The unit draws power from standard mains voltage and occupies a desktop footprint of 10.36" x 5.68" x 1.72" weighing 2.30 lbs.

Questions about this item
Will the external 100 V AC to 240 V AC power supply need replacing later?
The unit ships with an external power adapter that accepts 100 V AC to 240 V AC. Like any wall-wart, it can fail after years of continuous use and would be the only field-replaceable part.
Does the 2048 x 1536 video bandwidth limit how many computers I can switch at full QXGA resolution?
The switch supports a single monitor at 2048 x 1536 across all four ports. Bandwidth is shared, so every connected system can run at the full QXGA resolution without degradation.
How much heat does the SC240-001 produce when left on 24/7?
The chassis measures 10.36" x 5.68" x 1.72" and weighs 2.30 lbs with no internal fan. It runs warm but stays within normal operating temperatures for a passive desktop KVM.
