ServSwitch Spectra - KVM switch

You wouldn't be caught dead installing a keyboard/video/mouse switch for your two PCs, even though you could use one to clear the extra user equipment off your desk. You've got good reasons. Most KVM switches are way too complicated. The ones you can afford usually turn out to be weak, feature-poor, inflexible, and unreliable. And there isn't a single model that you'd want an office visitor to see - even the most exciting-looking ones resemble a shoebox with blinking lights. Maybe the ServSwitch Spectra can tempt you to break that promise.

For starters, it's a lot more handsome than your average KVM switch. It's in a sleek, compact case that's taller than it is wide, so that it takes up very little desktop space. But the Spectra is more than eye candy. In addition to the usual support for using one monitor, keyboard, and mouse to control a pair of IBM PC type computer CPUs, the Spectra has audio jacks for attaching headphones or speakers and switching the PCs' audio output as well. The Spectra has the usual pushbutton for switching and the usual LEDs to tell you which CPU is selected, but it also has a full set of keyboard commands for switching or scanning between computers, for troubleshooting your system, and more.
