ATEN's CS1784 Dual Link
DVI KVMP switch marks a revolutionary step in KVM functionality by combining ATEN's Display Technology with the wide screen graphics resolution of today's 30 inch monitors, supporting resolution up to 3840 x 2400. This unique KVM can increase efficiency and save equipment cost for applications, where high resolution monitors are required: CAD (computer aided design) and CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing); Desktop publishing and Graphic design; video editing; and gaming, where high video resolution is demanded. In keeping with the proliferation of high speed devices, the CS1784 provides two USB2.0 peripheral ports for independently sharing
USB devices between your computers. A powered USB hub may be attached to the peripheral ports for added functionality. The CS1784 is equipped with ATEN's Display Technology, it remembers your monitor's ideal resolution and refresh rate (EDID), making it possible to boot all your computers simultaneously, switch back and forth between computers, and still maintain the ideal video settings of the monitor. The CS1784 supports full bass 2.1 computer speakers and independent KVM, audio, and peripheral switching. NOTE : The KVM will support both
DVI-I and DVI-D, however the supplied video cables are
DVI-D they will not work with
VGA to DVI adapters, third party DVI-I cables or a VGA to DVI converter must be used.
In information technology, Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus standard to connect devices to a host computer. USB was designed to allow many peripherals to be connected using a single standardized interface socket and to improve plug and play capabilities by allowing hot swapping; that is, by allowing devices to be connected and disconnected without rebooting the computer or turning off the device. Other convenient features include providing power to low-consumption devices, eliminating the need for an external power supply; and allowing many devices to be used without requiring manufacturer-specific device drivers to be installed.
DVI, or Digital Video Interface Technology came about in 1999 as a result of the formation of the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) a year prior. Their original mission was to create a standard digital video interface for communication between a Personal Computer and a VGA monitor. Recently, however, the consumer electronics industry began implementing DVD players, set-top boxes, televisions, and LCD/plasma monitors with DVI technology.
The term Video Graphics Array (VGA) refers specifically to the display hardware first introduced with the IBM PS/2 line of computers in 1987, but through its widespread adoption has also come to mean either an analog computer display standard, the 15-pin D-subminiature VGA connector or the 640×480 resolution itself. While this resolution has been superseded in the personal computer market, it is becoming a popular resolution on mobile devices.
DVI-D, or Digital Video Interface Technology Digital came about in 1999 as a result of the formation of the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) a year prior. Their original mission was to create a standard digital video interface for communication between a Personal Computer and a VGA monitor. DVI-D will support only Digital video signals.
DVI-I, or Digital Video Interface Technology Intergrated came about in 1999 as a result of the formation of the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) a year prior. Their original mission was to create a standard digital video interface for communication between a Personal Computer and a VGA monitor. DVI-I will support both Digital and analog video signals.
