What is a KM Switch?

There are many cases where one computer user needs to work simultaneously with few computers. In some cases users are having multiple displays attached to these multiple computers. The challenge is how a single user can interact with multiple computers having multiple displays. KVMs would not do a good job for these users as they were designed to switch displays as well. KM switch is a device that switches a single set of keyboard and mouse between multiple computers. KM switch is essentially a KVM switch without the video switching - all displays are continuously connected to their computers.

 

What is a Secure KM Switch?

Secure KM switch is a KM switch device that specifically designed to enable isolation between coupled computers. Computers are typically connected to different networks and isolation between these networks must be assured to prevent data leakages and intrusions across networks. HSL Secure KM switch relies on physics (optical diodes) to prevent data leakages between coupled networks. Secure KM switch does not require any cables between computers any shared bus or network or any installed software for basic configuration.

The K304x KM can also be used to securely filter and lock USB ports preventing data export / import through mass-storage devices by hardware.

HSL K304x series was designed to comply with EAL 5 and it currently undergoing Common Criteria Evaluation to EAL 4+.

 

Virtual Display Technology (VDT) is implemented in HSL K304 Secure KM switches to enable seamless cursor and keyboard switching between multiple displays. VDT allows administrators to configure any desired displays configuration with same or different size and resolution. User simply moves mouse cursor across neighboring displays to switch between connected computers.

HSL VDT is now further enhanced with the inclusion of pointing device drivers to support dual, tripple and quad head computers. With this technology user workstation may be integrated with any combination of single, dual, triple and quad head computers.

VDT Copnfigurator software enables the system administrator to easily configure any set of display sizes, resolutions, geometry and physical arrangements.

  • Virtual Display Technology allows the K304 to switch automatically between computers once mouse cursor crosses display borders.

  • Highest security by design Designed by an agency to support isolation between national security networks. Common Criteria EAL 4+ approved (pending). Derivative of a TEMPEST product used in NATO nuclear submarines.

  • Support for dual-head and up to 16- head Product can be easily configured to support dual triple and up to 16- head computers through special software driver. Single head installation does not need any software installation.

  • Unidirectional optical data diodes used to secure USB peripherals isolation. Data can flow from devices to host only. No reverse data flow possible by physics. Can be used between widest security gaps.

  • User authentication device port Special USB port that supports CAC and other user authentication devices including wide range of biometric readers. User can decouple this port from KM switching to remain authenticated on one channel if needed.

  • Extensive administrator setup options Administrator mode provides many customized settings from display arrangement, size to cursor speed and acceleration.

  • Future-proof - supports widest variety of peripherals and computers SSupports the latest keyboards, mice and card readers. Support computers with all Operating Systems.

  • Peripherals security full USB devices filtering to assure support for keyboard and mouse only.

  • Active anti-tampering always-on active anti-tampering with 10 years battery. Special holographic tampering evident labels.

  • Remote Desktop Controller special port to enable remote controller accessory - RDC440 (more information>). Secure KM can be installed at distant location and connected through a cable.
