A multi-user (matrix) KVM switch allows multiple users (each using their own console) to concurrently access and use multiple computers connected to the KVM switch - one computer at a time.

A 4x24 multi-user KVM switch, for example, allows 4 users to simultaneously access and use 24 connected computers. If 2 users attempt to use the same computer at the same time - only one of them (the 1st one) will be able to control the computer, while the 2nd user typically –depending on administrator's settings - will either be denied access or will be only allowed to view the computer's video.
