Q&A
Today, many users are discovering that they can dramatically increase efficiency by connecting several monitors to one PC. The switch supports video up to 1990 x 1400 over coax cable at distances of up to 10 feet (3 m).
The Multihead ServSwitch supports multiple monitors. When you switch between CPUs on this ServSwitch, you see all the monitors connected to each CPU up to four monitors per CPU. So you always get the entire view.
Imagine what you can do with more monitors connected to your PC. You can put each of several applications on a different monitor to eliminate tedious switching between applications. Or if you have an application that uses lots of small windows, you can expand it across several monitors to provide more work space.
Features:
Supports Windows 3.x/95/98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, UNIX, Linux, NetWare, OS/2, and more. Ideal for use in banks, flight simulators, police control centers, and high-end publishing. Use one keyboard and mouse for all your CPUs. Access two or four IBM PC/AT or PS/2 type CPUs with two or four video outputs. Share multiple monitors among multiple CPUs. Supports resolutions up to 1990 x 1400. Dual Video units support two monitors. Quad Video units support four monitors.
Compatibility:
IBM PC/AT or PS/2 type CPUs and most major operating systems including Windows 3.x/95/98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, UNIX, Linux, NetWare, and OS/2. The switch supports video up to 1990 x 1400 over coax cable at distances of up to 10 feet (3 m).
