ATEN 8-Port Dual Rail 19in LCD USB/PS2 KVM — CL5808N ($1,537.16) Review
ATEN CL5808N 8 port dual rail 19 inch LCD USB PS2 KVM console drawer rack
A rackmount console drawer with a full 19-inch LCD, keyboard and touchpad on dual slide rails, with an 8-port PS/2-USB KVM switch built in so it doubles as both the console and the switch for an 8-server rack.
Overview
The CL5808N folds a complete 19-inch LCD console — monitor, keyboard, touchpad — into a 1U rack drawer on dual slide rails, with an integrated 8-port KVM switch so no separate switch box is needed for local console access.
Console Drawer Advantage
Dual-rail construction keeps the drawer stable when fully extended, which matters when a technician is actively typing on it rather than just glancing at status output, and the larger 19-inch panel is easier to read at a rack than smaller console options.
Comparison to Alternatives
Against the Raloy RW119-S801, another integrated LCD console/switch combo, the CL5808N comes from an established enterprise KVM brand with a larger 19-inch panel versus the Raloy's more compact footprint. For remote IP access rather than local-only, ATEN's KH1508Ai or CS1708i are the better fit since the CL5808N has no network interface.
