ATEN CL3800NW 18.5 inch Dual Rail USB HDMI-DVI LCD KVM Console

Managing servers in space-constrained data centers and server rooms often means sacrificing either accessibility or rack space. The ATEN CL3800NW solves this by integrating a high-resolution 18.5-inch Full HD LCD panel, a full keyboard, and a touchpad into a single 1U dual-rail console that slides out only when needed, then tucks away to keep your rack tidy and efficient.

Who is it for

IT administrators, network engineers, and data center technicians who need quick, local access to servers and KVM switches without dedicating extra rack units or carrying around a crash cart. It is especially useful in high-density environments where every rack unit counts.

Tips

For optimal performance, connect the CL3800NW to a compatible ATEN KVM switch to manage multiple servers from a single console. The dual rail design allows you to keep the monitor pulled out for monitoring while sliding the keyboard back in to save space. Use the OSD to adjust brightness and contrast to match your environment's lighting conditions.
