Description: An IP KVM switch (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) is a device that allows users to control multiple computers from a single console over an IP network. This means that instead of being physically present at the location of the computers, administrators can access and manage servers and workstations remotely. This type of switch is especially useful in data center environments and in situations where efficient management of multiple systems is required. The main features of an IP KVM switch include the ability to access machines from anywhere with an Internet connection, the possibility of sharing resources among different users, and integration with security systems to protect access. Additionally, these devices often offer advanced functionalities such as session recording, power management, and compatibility with multiple platforms, making them essential tools for network and system administration in technology environments of all sizes. In summary, an IP KVM switch significantly enhances wide area network (WAN) management capabilities, facilitating the control and monitoring of multiple devices efficiently and securely.
