SK4u Datasheet v4.2 - Support

SK4u

Secure USB keyboard, mouse and audio switch

Datasheet

The SK4u is a secure USB keyboard and mouse switch optimized for mission critical and secure applications. It allows a single USB keyboard and mouse to be switched between up to four computers and can also switch or mix audio data from the computers through to a headset or speakers.

Its advanced design ensures complete support for attached workstations, from power up to shutdown and allows almost instant channel switching. Users can switch channels using mouse clicks, keyboard shortcuts, the optional K4 controller, or the intuitive Mouse Point® system.

The SK4u is specifically designed to enhance system security by preventing channel cross-talk or key-stroke recording. In addition, it has the most thorough and accurate implementation of the USB protocol, ensuring the widest possible, error free compatibility. If you need a totally reliable, secure keyboard and mouse switch for a mission critical application, the Amulet Hotkey SK4u is the only safe option.

SKvu video switch

Based on the same robust and secure platform as the SK4u, the SK4vu adds a dual-head video switching matrix compatible with all digital and analogue workstation video sources.

Compatible with PCoIP Zero Clients he SK4u is fully compatible with Amulet Hotkey PC-over-IP Zero Clients and can be used to connect to remote PCoIP enabled workstations. Zero Clients use significantly less power at the desktop and generate little noise. Most importantly, they allow computers to be located in secure data centers away from the work place without compromising the user computing experience.

They are ideal for use with the SK4u in secure environments.

A SK4u switches keyboard and mouse between

4 remote workstations, each of a different security level. This setup uses separate PCoIP links between Amulet Hotkey zero clients at the desktop and an Amulet Hotkey PCoIP host in each workstation.

Mouse Point, users can switch channels simply by dragging the cursor to another screen. This intuitive system is easy to set up using the Mouse Point

Configuration Application and works with single or multi-headed workstations.
