Description
The SM80NU-4 Secure KM Switcher is a hardware-based keyboard and mouse switch that allows a single set of USB peripherals and audio to control up to eight isolated computer systems. It is NIAP Common Criteria Protection Profile 4.0 compliant and designed to provide strong peripheral isolation for sensitive environments. The unit supports dedicated CAC access and channel audio control to meet strict security policies.
Key features include NIAP PP4.0 certification, a dedicated CAC smart card reader port, and an audio output with selectable freeze control. Cursor-based switching lets users move the mouse across displays to change focus between systems and reduces the need for multiple peripheral sets. The device supports multi-monitor configurations and secure sharing of keyboard, mouse, and audio resources.
Technically the switch supports eight sources and USB keyboard/mouse connectivity using Type A and Type B ports. An integrated 3.5 mm audio jack provides channel audio output and can be frozen per channel during switching. The SM80NU-4 is rated for 35W maximum power and accepts 100 to 240V AC via an internal power supply.
Connectivity includes multiple USB Type A and Type B ports and a standard 3.5 mm audio jack for external audio devices and speakers. The switch supports Windows, Linux, and Mac host operating systems and offers multi-monitor capability on Windows with driver installation. The dedicated CAC port enables a single smart card reader to authenticate across all connected computers securely.
Typical applications include government and defense command centers, control rooms, and secure operations centers where peripheral isolation and controlled credential access are required. The SM80NU-4 reduces desktop clutter by consolidating peripherals and improves operator workflow through intuitive cursor switching. It is suitable for any environment requiring compliance with NIAP PP4.0 assurance levels.
