Aten CS261 USB DVI Computer Sharing Device

CS261

The CS261 offers a multi-user/single-task experience that enables two users to share the use of a computer from two consoles (monitor, USB keyboard, USB mouse, speakers and microphone).

The CS261 is ideal for small office environments. All programs, files and resources on the connected computer can be accessed and shared by the two users without the complexity and expense of setting up a network. Users operate the computer on a one by one basis with an optional security feature that can block the video and audio of the console that is not in use.

The CS261 provides a convenient OSD (On Screen Display) that notifies users when the other console is accessing the computer. This allows both users to know at a glance whether or not the PC is available for use.

  • Expand control of a DVI computer with (one at a time) shared access between two user consoles
  • Superior Video Quality – supports resolutions up to 1080p, 1920 x 1200, and 4K @ 30 Hz*

  • Supports RS-232 serial commands to switch operation and configure settings
  • Screen Saver Feature – blocks the console’s display after a period of inactivity
  • Mac/Sun keyboard emulation: consoles can use PC keyboards while working on Macintosh/Sun platforms***
  • Multilingual Keyboard Mapping – supports English, Japanese, French and German keyboards
  • Multiplatform Support: Windows, Linux, Mac or Sun
