The ATEN CL3884NW LCD KVM Switch offers a space-saving, streamlined approach to KVM switch technology by integrating a keyboard, a 18.5" LED-backlit LCD monitor, and a touchpad in a 1U rack-mountable slide housing. The dual rail design enables the LCD monitor, keyboard and touchpad to operate independently of each other. To maximize space utilization, the keyboard and touchpad modules can slide back to "hideaway" when not in use, while the LCD monitor rotates back, flush against the rack, to allow convenient monitoring of computer activity.The CL3884NW offers dual console outputs that guarantees users real-time monitoring functionality. Users can control both outputs to display the following display modes: Quad View, Picture in Picture (PiP), Picture by Picture (PbP), and Picture on Picture (PoP).

In addition, being able to cascade up to 2 levels, the CL3884NW can reach up to a maximum of 16 video sources that can be simultaneously displayed and controlled with independent keyboard and mouse.Featuring Boundless Switching, the CL3884NW allows users to switch control to another computer by simply moving the mouse cursor across a screen border and onto the target computer display without limitations. With patented ATEN technology – Video DynaSync ™, users can enjoy better display resolutions and faster switching between systems. What’s more, the EDID modes are available for smooth power-up, high-quality display that eliminate monitor compatibility issue.For added convenience, users can choose to manage the computer from an external console.
