Tripp Lite B022-U16-IP 16-port Rackmount Ip Kvm Switch

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE B022-U16-IP is a 16-port rackmount IP KVM switch designed to give IT and data center technicians centralized control over multiple servers or workstations from a single keyboard, video, and mouse interface. Operating over an IP network connection, this unit allows remote access and local console control without requiring a dedicated technician at each machine. The switch mounts in a standard equipment rack, keeping the installation organized in high-density server environments. It is suited for facilities management staff, network administrators, and data center technicians who need reliable out-of-band access to connected systems.

This KVM switch is intended for use in rackmounted server environments, including enterprise data centers, network operations centers, co-location facilities, and server rooms in commercial or industrial settings. It supports up to 16 connected hosts from a single console, reducing the need for individual monitors, keyboards, and mice at each server bay. The IP-based access capability makes it a practical solution for facilities where remote administration is a routine part of operations.
