Single-head DisplayPort KVM module
The Black Box KV1408A is a server access module built for single-head DisplayPort video, USB HID and audio over CATx cabling. It targets IT administrators who need secure, centralised control of rack-mounted servers from a single console.
Replaces direct server connections
This module removes the need for a dedicated monitor, keyboard and mouse at every server by extending console signals over structured cabling. The jump is worth it when rack density makes local peripherals impractical or when physical access to servers is restricted.
Suits single-head DisplayPort environments
Administrators managing servers with DisplayPort output and USB HID peripherals will find the module a direct fit. Buyers who require multi-head video, analog video interfaces or fibre extension should look at alternative modules that support those signal types.
