The Cybex Active Front Panel (AFP) is a simple, dedicated device designed for remote control and to enhance desktop situational awareness when using Vertiv KVM switches.

Work space can be limited and peripheral devices are located in areas that are not easy to access. Because of this, Vertiv has developed a solution that allows users to remotely control their KVM switches easily. The Cybex Active Front Panel (AFP) can be mounted on top of a monitor or located anywhere on the desk for easy access.

The Avocent AFP0004 KVM switch is a cost effective productivity solution designed to:

• Increase productivity with simple, rapid access to systems
• Improve situational awareness: with the AFP0004 in the user's field of view, the user is able to see which channel they are currently working on.
• Designed for both desk or display mounting for an ergonomic work space.
