ATEN CL5708M Slideaway LCD KVM Switch offers seamless control of up to 8 computers from a single PS/2 or USB console with an integrated 17" TFT-LCD display, perfect for professional rackmount environments. This 1U solution features a high-resolution 1280 × 1024 @ 75 Hz LED-backlit screen paired with a full keyboard and touchpad, all housed in a sliding form factor that saves space and simplifies workstation management.

Key features include dual interface support for PS/2 and USB with automatic detection, allowing hassle-free switching and compatibility with multimedia keyboards across PC, Mac, and Sun platforms. The switch supports daisy-chaining of up to 31 additional units, enabling control of as many as 256 computers from a single console, making it ideal for large-scale IT setups.

Enhanced with LED illumination to light up the keyboard and touchpad for low-light environments and equipped with multiple port selection options (front-panel buttons, on-screen display, and hotkeys), it ensures quick and flexible management. Advanced security features include two-level password protection, supporting one administrator and multiple user accounts to safeguard system access.

Additional conveniences include hot-pluggable computer ports, firmware upgrade support even for daisy-chained units, and multilingual OSD menus. The CL5708M also includes a front USB peripheral port and external mouse port for optimal usability. This modular KVM design allows easy maintenance by detaching the console from the switch unit.

Ideal for data centers, server rooms, and professional AV environments, the ATEN CL5708M streamlines multi-computer control with reliability, security, and ergonomic viewing.
