ATEN CS22HF 2-Port FHD HDMI KVM Cable Switch

Overview

The ATEN CS22HF is a compact 2-port KVM switch designed for single-user environments requiring control of two computers from a single console. It simplifies workstation setups by consolidating keyboard, video, and mouse control, reducing desk clutter and improving efficiency. This model is particularly useful for IT technicians managing multiple workstations or for users who need to switch between a primary workstation and a test machine. The included remote port selector allows for convenient switching without needing direct access to the main KVM unit, ideal for rack-mounted equipment or tight desk spaces. The CS22HF supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 @ 60Hz, ensuring clear video output for standard high-definition displays.

Compatibility

This KVM switch is designed to connect to standard HDMI video sources and USB Type-A keyboard/mouse inputs. It is compatible with any computer or device featuring these standard outputs. The 1.8m cable length provides flexibility in connecting devices within a close proximity, such as two PCs under a desk or two servers in a small rack. It functions as a plug-and-play device, requiring no special drivers for operation on most operating systems.

Installation Notes

The ATEN CS22HF supports standard HDMI and USB 2.0 connections. Ensure that the HDMI ports on both computers are active and outputting video signals. The unit operates within a humidity range of 0-80% RH, non-condensing. For rack-mount products, note that dimensions may be expressed in LxWxH format. The included remote port selector is connected via a dedicated cable, allowing selection of the active computer without physically manipulating the main KVM unit.
