Solid, Sturdy, and 100% metal ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars works as expected *by Z***I on Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2019* I need this to use at home with my laptops and computers. It is nice to have remote access feature. Working without any issue. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars The web interface is pretty cheap and clunky *by C***U on Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2017* The unit functions, more or less. But mouse sync does not work on the KVM, which makes it unusable for all but emergency purposes. The web interface is pretty cheap and clunky. Don't expect a lot of options beyond the basics. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/41981771-vertiv-avocent-16-port-rackmount-kvm-over-ip-switch-cac](https://www.desertcart.be/products/41981771-vertiv-avocent-16-port-rackmount-kvm-over-ip-switch-cac) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-11-04*
