Description

Black Box KV7024A KVM Switch

Overview

The Black Box KV7024A is a 4-port KVM switch designed for environments still utilizing PS/2 keyboards and VGA monitors for server management. This unit allows a single operator to control up to four computers from one console, streamlining operations and reducing equipment sprawl in rack-mounted server environments. Its compact form factor and straightforward PS/2 connectivity make it a practical choice for maintaining legacy infrastructure or integrating older systems into a modern data center.

Compatibility

This KVM switch is designed to interface with computers featuring PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, and VGA video outputs. It supports standard VGA resolutions up to 2048x1536. It is compatible with a wide range of operating systems that support PS/2 input devices, including various versions of Windows, Linux, and macOS. The KV7024A is intended for use with standard rack-mount servers and workstations that have these legacy port configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation involves connecting the PS/2 keyboard and mouse from the operator console to the switch's console ports, and the VGA monitor to the console video port. Then, connect the included PS/2 and VGA cables from each of the four target computers to the corresponding ports on the switch. Ensure all connections are secure before powering on the connected computers. The switch itself is powered via a standard 5V DC power adapter (included).
