This KVM switch also supports PS/2 keyboard and mouse, which means it works great with a KVM-over-IP device, allowing me to easily control my systems from a local console or remote control. All machines are USB based, but the KVM-over-IP device supports both; Unfortunately it supports USB as most PCs accept it, but most KVMs either ignore it completely (no input) or crash when they see it. and VGA video system.
