The IOGEAR 8-Port Dual-Link DVI KVM Switch TAAfrom IOGEAR 8-Port Dual-Link DVI KVM Switch TAAis NIAP certified and validated to comply with Protection Profile 3.0, which meets security requirements set by the US Department of Defense for peripheral sharing switches. This switch can be used to control eight computers and one display and features eight CPU inputs, each of which has one Dual-Link DVI-I port, one 3.5mm audio jack, and dual USB Type-B ports. Within each CPU group, one of the USB Type-B ports supports authorized CAC readers and biometrics readers. Available console connections include one Dual-Link DVI-I port, two PS/2 ports, one 3.5mm audio jack, and three USB Type-A ports, one of which supports CAC. Resolutions are supported up to 3840 x 2160 and security is further enhanced using tamper-evident seals, active chassis intrusion detection, and tamperproof hardware.

With the combination of physical and software security, this KVM switch consolidates multiple workstations with varying security classification levels using one keyboard, monitor, and mouse (KVM) console. It is compatible with Windows, Mac, Linux, and UNIX. Included is a power cord and protection is provided by a limited 4-year warranty.

IOGEAR's 8-Port Dual-Link DVI Secure KVM Switch is NIAP-certified and compliant with PP3.0 (Protection Profile for Peripheral Sharing Switch version 3.0) requirements, satisfying the latest security requisites set by the US Department of Defense for peripheral sharing switches.

Common criteria compliance ensures maximum information security while sharing a single set of approved HIDs - keyboards, mice, speakers, CAC readers, and Microsoft Biometric Readers - between multiple computers. Conformity with Protection Profile v3.0 certifies that non-approved USB peripherals will be rejected and cannot be connected to the Secure KVM, providing high-level security, protection, and data safekeeping.

The IOGEAR Secure KVM Switch's hardware security is comprised of tamper-evident seals, active chassis intrusion detection, and tamperproof hardware. Embedded software security allows administrators to grant controlled USB port access for keyboards, mice, and other devices while ignoring commands from non-HIDs when switching between ports. The onboard software restricts mouse and hotkey commands while clearing the keyboard's buffer when switching ports while ensuring data travels isolated on each port preventing exposure.

The 8-Port Dual-Link DVI Secure KVM supports a single view display and HD resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 @ 30 Hz.
