Belkin Modular SKM features and benefits:
The Belkin Modular Secure KM Switch consolidates only the keyboard and mouse between multiple isolated computers, unlike a traditional KVM that also manages video, providing a simple, secure control point for operators who maintain visibility through dedicated displays. Designed for high-assurance environments that rely on multi-enclave access, the Modular Secure KM delivers cyber-isolation without compromising mission readiness.
Built for command centers, intelligence operations, and defense agencies, the small-form-factor switch supports seamless control across up to four systems with pointer-based channel switching. Operators can fluidly navigate between networks using ordinary mouse movement, which can be enabled through secure administrative configuration.
