Sixteen servers humming in a rack and you're still sprinting between desks with a spare monitor in hand. That stops today. The ATEN CL5716N slides out of your 1U rack slot and hands you one keyboard, one mouse, one 19-inch screen for all 16 machines. No juggling cables. No "which server is which" guessing. You tap a key, the console switches, done.
It's a single-rail Slideaway housing, so it tucks into the rack and pulls out when you need it. The integrated LED-backlit panel keeps things readable at 2am when the alert page fires. PS/2 and USB both work — auto-detects, no driver gymnastics. Windows, Linux, Mac, Sun: all supported.
Need more than 16? Daisy-chain up to 31 additional ATEN units (ACS1208A, ACS1216A, CS1708A, CS1716A) and you're controlling 512 machines from that same console. One person. One rack. No chaos.
This is the non-fingerprint model. If you need the fingerprint reader variant, we can point you to the right SKU before you order.
Ships from our Australian warehouse. Call us if your rack layout is a bit more complex than "straight in, straight out" — we've done the awkward ones
