PRODUCT DETAILS (These are general details from the company, may mention standard parts/features not included in this specific listing):
PRODUCT DETAILS:
The IOGEAR GCS138 MiniView Ultra is a high-density, 8-port PS/2 KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switch designed for server management and professional IT environments. It allows a single user to manage multiple computers using one console and is built with a rugged 1U rack-mountable metal chassis.
Technical Specifications:
Capacity: Supports 8 direct computer connections. It is cascadable up to three levels, enabling control of up to 512 computers from a single console.
Video Quality: Supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1440 with DDC, DDC2, and DDC2B support for high-quality display output.
Physical Ports:
Console Ports: 1x VGA (HDDB15 Female), 1x PS/2 Keyboard (6-pin mini-DIN), and 1x PS/2 Mouse (6-pin mini-DIN).
CPU Ports: 8x VGA (HDDB15 Male), 8x PS/2 Keyboard (6-pin mini-DIN), and 8x PS/2 Mouse (6-pin mini-DIN).
Form Factor: Standard 1U, 19-inch rack-mountable design (Dimensions: 1.75" H x 17" W x 6" D).
Power: Utilizes an external 9V DC power adapter.
Operational Features:
Control Methods: Users can switch between computers using front-panel push buttons, keyboard hotkeys, or the built-in On-Screen Display (OSD) menu.
Naming and Organization: The OSD allows users to assign unique names to each port, making it easy to identify specific servers or workstations.
AutoScan: A monitoring mode that cycles through active ports at user-defined intervals ranging from 3 to 60 seconds.
Emulation: Features full keyboard and mouse emulation (PS/2 and serial), which prevents computer boot-up errors by ensuring the PC "sees" a keyboard and mouse even when the KVM isn't focused on that specific port.
Status Indicators: Uses dual-color LEDs (Orange for "On Line" and Green for "Selected") to provide immediate visual status of all connections.
System Integration:
Plug-and-Play: The device operates at the hardware level, meaning it requires no software installation and is independent of the operating system (supports Windows, Linux, Unix, etc.).
Reset Capabilities: Includes a dedicated reset button to refresh the KVM configuration or clear the internal memory without powering down connected machines.
Compatibility: While natively PS/2, the unit is known for its durability in legacy server environments and can be adapted to support modern systems with specific IOGEAR conversion cables.
DETAILS & FAQ'S ABOUT OUR STORE:
THE REASON YOU ARE GETTING OUR PRODUCTS AT A SIGNIFICANTLY LESS COST THAN MOST IS:
We are an electronics recycler so most of our items are not actually used daily by us. That means we ask to please make sure to please just ask questions and/or do research before buying our items. If we add product descriptions, those are copy and paste from google or the manufacturer's site so if you see something in the details but not in the picture please just ask. Unless labelled new, all items are as-is and for most used items we test to make sure things turn on. If we can test functionality and use beyond turning it on, we will include that in the listing.

If you have any issue with your product, please reach out to us first as we always want to work something out. If we say something works and it doesn't, we got you.

FOR FREIGHT AND LARGE ITEMS:
