    Overview HPE G3 KVM Console Switch overview The HPE G3 KVM Console Switch is an analog KVM switch providing local access to data center servers and remote access when using an optional RAK (AF650A). USB, serial, and BladeSystem IAs enable direct KVM connectivity to devices. The KVM Console Switch supports all previous IAs with the exception of the KVM Console Serial/Power G2 Interface Adapter (AF625A).

    Mouse alignment and synchronization Because the switch OBWI cannot receive constant feedback from the mouse, sometimes the mouse on the switch might become out of sync with the mouse on the host system. If the mouse or keyboard no longer responds properly, align the mouse to re-establish proper tracking. Alignment causes the local cursor to align with the remote target device cursor.
