The DKVM-8E Keyboard, Video, and Mouse (KVM) switch allows you to take control of 8 different server PCs using just one keyboard, monitor, and mouse. It is easy to use, powerful, and scaleable. Eight DKVM-8E switches (banks) can be stacked together to control up to 64 PCs. The DKVM-8E KVM switch utilizes advanced microprocessor emulation to intelligently manage each KVM port. This allows simultaneous boot-up of all the attached PCs. The KVM switch's intelligent microprocessors save CAPSLOCK, NUM LOCK, and SCROLL LOCK status for each PC. It supports VGA, SVGA and MultiSync monitors at up to 1920 x 1440 resolution. Support for AT type PC with serial mouse ports are included using a mouse conversion technology.

Summary: D-Link stands for Down-Link
Comment: I don't expect the switch to solve the world's problems, but I do expect it to be more functional. First thing you learn, there is only one button to toggle between PCs, and that button only cycles one way (1 to 8). So if you only have 2 to 3 PCs connected, you can't cycle backwards (i.e. if you're on PC #3, you can only get to PC #1 by cycling thru 4->8->1). You'll definitely be using the HOT KEY combo to cycle up/down between PCs.
The OSD (On Screen Display) is straight out of DOS graphics circa 1985. Very primitive. The only thing you ever want to use the OSD is to reset/change you password.
An annoying problem I've experienced is that on some boots, the mouse is not recognized through the switch. I have checked my connections and rebooted. I have verified the mouse is OK by plugging it directly into a PC. Currently, the switch has stopped detecting the mouse device.
The only good thing about this switch is that it comes with 3 combo cables. So if you have only 2 to 3 PCs to hook up, you save yourself the hassle of buying combo cables separately.
Overall, I would not recommend the D-Link switch (at least not for the price they are asking). Don't believe the description about this switch. It's strictly bargain basement.
