Which KVM Product Do You Need?

The right KVM product depends on how many computers you need to control, where the equipment is located, how many users need access and whether control is local, extended or remote.

For a simple desk setup, a desktop KVM switch is usually the best starting point. For cabinets and server rooms, rackmount or IP KVM may be more suitable. For control rooms and multi-user environments, KVM extenders or matrix KVM systems may be required.
