required only when switching  
two different PS/2 compatible  
processors between a single  
keyboard and monitor.  
Durable and easy to set up  
The switches are built to last,  
too. Thanks to a sturdy design,  
the units can be moved from one  
location to another—in the office  
or on the road. In fact, we’re so  
certain of their durability, we  
include a lifetime guarantee at  
no additional charge.  
What’s more, the PS/2 Style  
Keyboard Switches with VGA are  
easy to install and operate with  
no frustration over plugging and  
unplugging bundles of tangled  
cable. Just insert the common  
component plug into the rear-  
panel socket marked “C” and the  
components to be switched into  
the sockets that correspond to  
front-panel selector-knob  
positions.

They’re perfect for small  
training seminars in a classroom-  
type setting where you require  
fast and efficient switching of  
keyboards and display stations  
between common PS/2  
compatible processors. You can  
save money by sharing a common  
processor—money that can be  
used elsewhere in your network.

rebooted after switching.  
Or set them up so a  
single workstation  
has access to more  
than one processor.  
Not so with these switches.  
They enable you to reset the  
keyboard through a reinitialization  
cycle so that the processor is  
able to accept new input data. To  
generate the reinitialization, just  
press and hold a front-panel  
pushbutton for several seconds.  
This lets you unlock a frozen  
keyboard without rebooting,  
saving you time (because you  
won’t waste time rebooting the  
computer after each switch  
process) and money (because  
you don’t have to buy extra  
keyboards and monitors).
