ABSTRACT:
A computer management apparatus is provided for interconnecting a single user console including user interface devices, such as a console keyboard, a console video display unit, a console mouse, and speakers for connecting to a plurality of host computers, thereby allowing the user to access one or more of the host computers from the user console. In one embodiment, the user may easily switch between the host computers by use of an RF wireless remote control device that activates a switching circuit contained within the body of the computer management apparatus. The cables utilized with the apparatus and the device indicator on the remote control device are color coded for easy hook-up and identification of the host computer selected with the remote control device to activate the switching circuit.
