HP KVM Console PS2/USB Virtual Media CAC Interface Adapter
HPE KVM Console PS2/USB Virtual Media CAC Interface Adapter (Part Number: AF624A) — is a high-performance server interface module designed for secure and efficient data center management. This adapter bridges the gap between the server's local ports and the KVM switch infrastructure using standard Cat5 cabling. Unlike basic adapters, the AF624A supports Virtual Media, allowing administrators to map remote storage devices (like DVD-ROMs or ISO images) directly to the server, and CAC (Common Access Card) for enhanced identity verification. It is a versatile tool that supports both modern USB-based systems and legacy PS/2 hardware.
