I've never seen KVM switches needing power before and this one (I bought
several) has no power supply included. But their is a socket for a power adaptor. Zonet KVM3304. So before I swithc everything over and find out it doesn't work, I was hoping someone would tell me if I really need power and what happens when I don't have it. ie, maybe I should shut down a few of the machines. THis thing is 4-way. What's a KVM - Keyboard Video Monito switch that lets you use multiple computers with one console. -- Vasos Panagiotopoulos, Columbia'81+, Reagan, Mozart, Pindus blog: panix.com/~vjp2/ruminatn.htm - = - web: panix.com/~vjp2/vasos.htm facebook.com/vasjpan2 - linkedin.com/in/vasjpan02 - biostrategist.com ---{Nothing herein constitutes advice.
