2. Application Diagram
PLANET’s KVM switch family is the most cost-effective and
simple solution for controlling a group of PCs in the network.
Multiple computers can be managed via only one single set of
monitor, keyboard and mouse directly. No software drivers or
system conguration are required. iMac, Power Mac and Sun
systems can also be supported by using PLANET’s innovative
USB-PS2 adapter. Switching among computers is achieved
simply by pushing a button on the KVM switch or a pre-dened
hotkey on the keyboard or via the KVM-810’s on screen display
(OSD) function.
