CPU is the abbreviation for "Central Processing Unit". The CPU module is a hardware component that connects the KVM switch or the KVM matrix to the computer or server to be controlled. As a rule, the technology acts as an interface that forwards KVM signals from the switch to the computer. Once the computing power has been provided, the CPU module sends the data back to the input module (CON).
The CPU module is responsible for converting and forwarding the input from the monitor, keyboard and mouse, e.g. on the KVM switch. This is the only way the connected computer can interpret them as a direct request. At the same time, the module transmits video output from the computer to the KVM switch and from there to the user's monitor.
The CPU module is an important component of complex KVM switch or KVM matrix systems. It increases the flexibility, scalability and security of the overall solution. The module is often installed in racks and can be used in data centers, control rooms and other environments where multiple computers need to be centrally controlled.
The best way to talk about complex topics is in person. Via chat, e-mail, phone or in a personal demo remote or on-site.
