NetDirector 8-Port 1U Rack-Mount Console KVM

Switch with 17-in. LCD

MODEL NUMBER: B020-008-17

Description

Tripp Lite’s B020-008-17 KVM Switch gives you a rack-mountable keyboard, LCD and touchpad in a single

console that occupies only 1U of rack space. Easy to install and use, it’s the optimal solution for controlling up to

8 computers/servers.

The B020-008-17 has a built-in 17” LCD screen that supports video resolutions up to 1280 x 1024. You can

switch easily between the 8 ports using on-console push buttons, an on-screen display(OSD) or keyboard hot

key commands. Multi-level password security can be set up for an administrator and up to 4 local users to

ensure only those with authorization can access the connected computers.

This switch controls PS/2 or USB computers/servers using a P774-Series(PS/2) or P776-Series(USB) KVM

Cable Kit(one of each is included). An extra HD15 port allows an additional VGA monitor to be connected. Two

PS/2 ports also are included on the rear of the unit to allow for connection of a Tripp Lite B051-000 IP Remote

Access Unit or an external console. When not in use, the B020-008-17 stores neatly in a rack drawer and pulls

out when needed. This KVM console is compatible with all major operating systems(special keys on Mac and

Sun keyboards are not supported). Heavy-duty steel housing stands up to frequent use.
