Designed for use in secure defense and intelligence applications, this SKMN-8S-P 8-Port USB KM Switch with Audio and CAC Port from IPGard features mechanical, electrical and optical signal isolation to prevent hacking and data leakage. It controls data relays using inverted signals, shielding connections from outside intrusion by forcing them to work one at a time. Each port uses its own isolated data channel and each unit features non-reprogrammable ROM to protect the switch's functions.
The switch emulates the presence of a keyboard and a mouse for every attached computer through a USB cable, preventing direct connection between the peripherals and the connected computer. It allows users to assign specific peripheral devices to the CAC port. Once a peripheral device has been registered by an authenticated admin, users can then switch the connection between that device and the PC's along with KM switching.
