KVM, in short for “Keyboard, Video, Mouse Switch”, is a 1U console rack-mountable in 19’’ cabinet. As with the
implication of its name, a KVM switch allows for the access and control of multiple operating systems with the same
keyboard, video display and mouse. Practical functions of KVM come into action when users need to alternate between
various operating systems, especially in
the development of a cross-platform application, and yet do not have the luxury
of space to accommodate more than a single controlling computer. With the ability to support 8 or more operating
systems at any one time, users are provided with the option of monitoring and controlling the operating systems
connected by simply pressing the button on the KVM. Connections to KVM switches come in the form of the commonly
used USB ports and the conventional PS/2 or serial ports
