Establish high-level, multi-layered desktop security and data safekeeping with the 8-Port USB DVI Secure KVM Switch from ATEN. Designed to meet the stringent security requirements of defense and intelligence installations, this KVM switch is compliant with the PSS PP v3.0 standard, certified by the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP). The switch keeps sensitive assets isolated and provides advanced security and a user-friendly design for secure deployment in government agencies, finance corporations, and other organizations that handle sensitive or confidential data on separate networks. This eight-port model uses an DVI video interface and supports video resolutions up to 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) at 30 Hz.
The KVM switch provides isolation between computer sources and peripherals while sharing a single keyboard, mouse, monitor, speaker set, and Common Access Card (CAC) reader between connected computers of various security classifications. Compliance with PSS PP v3.0 ensures peripheral sharing capabilities with maximum user data security when switching port focus, preventing unauthorized data flows or leakage between connected sources. Key protections include isolation and unidirectional data flow, restricted peripheral connectivity and filtering, user data protection, configurable device filtering and management, and an always-on tamper-proof design.
Compliant with PSS PP v3.0 (Protection Profile for Peripheral Sharing Switch, version 3.0) security requirements Restricted USB connectivity—non-authorized HIDs (Human Interface Devices) and non-predefined CAC devices are rejected/ignored Always-on chassis intrusion detection renders the switch inoperable when physical tampering is detected Tamper-evident seals provide visual indication of any attempt to access the switch's internal components Non-reprogrammable firmware Port selection via push buttons only for enhanced security LED indicators for peripheral filtering and KVM security status Rugged metal enclosure Data channel isolation prevents data leakage between connected computers via isolated channel per port Unidirectional data flow between the console devices and the selected computer Controls and isolates data flow between the console devices and connected computers Supports analog audio (speaker only)
Note: Only analog speaker data input is supported. The switch does not convert digital audio to analog audio. Keyboard/mouse data buffer is automatically purged when switching KVM port focus for user data protection Provides administrative functions for authorized administrator to audit KVM log data USB CAC Port can be configured to allow/reject whitelisted/blacklisted devices via Admin logon function or Windows-based application Supports enabling/disabling CAC function by port Up to 4K (3840 x 2160) at 30 Hz resolution Video DynaSync technology eliminates boot-up display problems and optimizes resolutions when switching between ports
