Trendnet TK-803R 8-port Kvm Switch Usb PS2 Rack Mount

Product Description

The TRENDNET TK-803R is an 8-port KVM switch designed to give IT technicians and network administrators centralized keyboard, video, and mouse control over multiple computers from a single console. Supporting both USB and PS/2 connection types, the TK-803R accommodates a mixed install environment where legacy and modern systems coexist. The rack-mount form factor makes it well suited for server room and data center deployments where space and cable management are critical. This switch is installed and serviced by IT professionals and network technicians managing multi-server environments.

The TK-803R is used in rack-mounted server environments, wiring closets, and network operations centers where administrators need to manage up to 8 computers without dedicated peripherals at each machine. Its dual interface support makes it practical in environments transitioning from PS/2-based systems to USB-based hardware, reducing the need for separate switches or adapters during infrastructure upgrades.

Key Features

• 8 ports allow centralized control of up to 8 computers from one keyboard, monitor, and mouse
• Supports both USB and PS/2 interfaces for mixed-hardware compatibility
• Rack-mount design integrates into standard server rack enclosures
• Single-console operation reduces peripheral overhead in server room environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install KVM switch for rack-mounted server and workstation environments supporting USB and PS/2 console connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by IT technicians or network administrators. Power down connected systems before attaching or detaching KVM cables to avoid peripheral enumeration errors. Secure the unit to the rack using appropriate rack-mount hardware before connecting console and computer cables. Verify that all cable connections are fully seated to ensure stable signal and input switching between ports.
