The PiKVM team is excited to present its new PiKVM Switch Multiport Extender - the most full-featured switch for PiKVM devices. After much anticipation, the PiKVM Switch is now available for order! The switch allows you to connect up to four target hosts to a single PiKVM and provides full control over them.

And now the best part: **the switches can be chained**! Need four ports? Get a PiKVM Switch Multiport Extender. As your server fleet expands to eight, simply add another switch and link it to the first one. Need even more? No worries — **connect up to five switches and enjoy 20 fully functional ports on your PiKVM**. Say goodbye to replacing your entire KVM system!
