ATEN KA7170 USB KVM Adapter Cable

Overview

The ATEN KA7170 is a USB KVM adapter module designed to connect a computer's USB and video ports to a KVM switch. This specific module utilizes a USB Type-A male connector for keyboard and mouse input and an HDB-15 male connector for video output, enabling remote management of servers or workstations. It is intended for use with rack-mounted KVM switches and servers where direct physical access is impractical.

Compatibility

This adapter module is designed to interface with ATEN's KVM switch product lines that support USB console connections and HDB-15 video input. It is compatible with ATEN KVM switches that require a CPU module for USB keyboard/mouse and VGA video signals. Specific compatibility should be verified against the target KVM switch model's documentation.

Installation Notes

The KA7170 operates within a storage temperature range of -20–60°C. This specification is critical for ensuring the longevity and reliability of the module when stored or deployed in environments with significant temperature fluctuations. Proper ventilation around the connected equipment is advised to maintain optimal operating conditions.
