The DVI-I single-link connector supports digital video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200, including 1080p, and analog video resolutions up to 2048 x 1536. The multi-view installation feature lets you stack up to four KVM switches for connecting computers with up to four DVI outputs and displaying video on up to four console monitors, giving you flexibility in video output. A 3.5 mm microphone jack provides audio input to connected computers. A 3.5 mm audio jack provides 2.1-channel sound to connected speakers.

The OSD presents a text-based interface in eight different languages and allows backup of KVM configuration and user profile information. Dual-tier password protection enhances security for an administrator and up to four users. A DB9 cable is included for firmware upgrades that keep the KVM switch up to date with the latest technology. Easy front-panel access to USB 2.0 hub ports allows quick connection of two USB devices, such as flash drives and printers. More from the Manufacturer

Cascade KVM Switches to Control Up to 512 Computers Simultaneously

By cascading up to three levels of KVM switches, you can control up to 512 computers at the same time. In a three-level cascade installation, the first KVM switch in the chain is considered the first-level unit. The KVM switches cascaded to the first-level unit are considered second-level units, and the KVM switches cascaded to the second-level units are third-level units. Switch from one connected computer to another using the front-panel buttons, keyboard hotkeys or the on-screen display (OSD). For convenient monitoring, the original console automatically switches between ports every five seconds.

Supports High-Definition 1080p Video + Audio

The DVI-I single-link connector supports digital video resolutions up to 1920 x 1200, including 1080p, and analog video resolutions up to 2048 x 1536. A 3.5 mm microphone jack provides audio input to connected computers. A 3.5 mm audio jack provides 2.1-channel sound to connected speakers. The B024-DUA8-SL also supports a VGA display when connected to a DVI to VGA adapter (such as Tripp Lite’s P556-Series).

Multi-View Feature Provides an Extra Level of Switching Flexibility

The multi-monitor feature stacks up to four KVM switches to connect up to seven computers with up to four DVI outputs and display video on up to four console monitors at once. This installation requires different cabling than standard cascade configuration and offers extra switching flexibility for multiple-monitor installations where multiple video cards are installed on each computer.

Multilingual On-Screen Display

The OSD presents a text-based interface in eight different languages: English, German, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Russian and French. It offers direct access to every connected computer—up to 512—and allows backup and restoration of KVM configuration and user profile information.

Independent USB 2.0 Peripheral Sharing

A front-panel USB 2.0 hub allows quick connection of two USB devices—such as printers, hard drives, scanners and webcams—between connected computers.

The plug-and-play KVM switch needs no additional software or drivers. Its durable metal housing mounts in 1U of space in an EIA-standard 19-inch rack using the included brackets.

Compatible with All Major Operating Systems

The B024-DUA8-SL offers a comprehensive, cost-effective management solution that installs in 1U of rack space. Because compatibility is based on common hardware standards rather than system software dependencies, almost any platform can be accommodated. This KVM switch is compatible with all major operating systems, including Windows, Mac, Sun and Linux.

3-Year Warranty and Environmentally Responsible Design

The B024-DUA8-SL comes with a 3-year warranty. It’s manufactured in compliance with strict RoHS specifications, reflecting Tripp Lite’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
