Lightware 25G-LAYER-USB-KVM-160
USB KVM layer
Description
The Lightware 25G‑LAYER‑USB‑KVM‑160 is a high‑performance USB & KVM extension and switching module designed for the 25G Hybrid signal‑layer architecture. Built to support demanding AV environments, the USB‑KVM‑160 module enables transparent USB HID device sharing and KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) functionality across the same unified infrastructure used for video, audio, IR, RS‑232, Ethernet and CEC.
With support for “2 USB HID devices per 25G I/O port” along with keyboard‑based matrix control, the USB‑KVM‑160 empowers integrators to switch and control multiple host computers and peripherals seamlessly. Up to 160 computers can be managed through the system, making the module ideal for control rooms, enterprise BYOD meeting spaces, command centres and large‑scale interactive installations.
Designed as a modular card in the 25G LAYER series, this unit integrates into the 25G matrix frame with the same simplicity as transmitting video and audio — except it expands the system into USB/KVM domains, offering point‑to‑point connections, centralized routing and full signal‑layer convergence. Whether you’re extending laptops, webcams, smart‑card readers or multiple hosts in a multi‑user system, the Lightware 25G‑LAYER‑USB‑KVM‑160 delivers scalable USB & KVM control that’s built for professional AV infrastructure.
