Extra VGA and PS/2 ports on back of the KVM switch allow the connection of an IP remote-access unit (Tripp Lite Model B050-000) or another console. The NetDirector KVM Switch is easy to install.

Helping prevent such attacks is Tripp Lite, which in January added two- and four-port NIAP-certified USB Secure KVM Switches to its line of switches and console servers for the data center.
