With Tripp Lite’s B078-101-USB-8, traditional, thick KVM cables are a thing of the past. By using cost-effective Cat5e/6 cabling, the B078-101-USB-8 frees up space in your server cabinet and allows for increased ventilation, longer cable runs and greater savings. This server interface unit is needed to connect a USB server to Tripp Lite’s B070/B072-series KVM switches.
Using Cat5e/6 cabling allows your server to be located up to 100 feet away from the KVM switch that controls it.

With the B078-101-USB-8, there is no software or external power needed. Plug the USB and HD15 connectors into the server to be controlled, run the Cat5e/6 cabling to your KVM, and you’re ready to go. The unit connects a server or computer with an HD15 connector for video and USB-type connectors for mouse and keyboard control to a KVM switch with Cat5e/6 (RJ45) connectors.
