About the Aten CS17916 16-Port USB HDMI/Audio KVM Switch
The Aten CS17916 is a 16-port USB HDMI KVM switch engineered for centralized control of multiple servers, workstations, and displays across enterprise data centers and hybrid IT environments. This Aten platform consolidates keyboard, mouse, audio, and video signals from 16 discrete computer systems through a single console interface, eliminating cable clutter and reducing operator desk real estate.
Built for IT operations and infrastructure teams, the CS17916 delivers 1920×1200 HDMI video resolution with stereo audio switching—supporting both microphone and speaker per port. Four intuitive port selection methods (front-panel buttons, on-screen display menu, hotkeys, and auto-scan) accelerate system switching during troubleshooting and maintenance. DDC2B emulation ensures reliable monitor detection, while the compact 1U rack-mount form factor integrates seamlessly into 19-inch standard racks. Operating across 0–50°C and supported by USB connectivity for both console and computer interfaces, this Aten switch suits demanding 24/7 enterprise environments. Network engineers and IT procurement specialists standardize on the CS17916 to streamline multi-system administration without sacrificing performance or uptime.
