ServSwitch KV9702A KVM Switch

This Black Box ServSwitch KV9702A is a DisplayPort KVM switch that adds USB and audio switching for single-monitor workstations. It lets one keyboard, mouse, speakers and display control two computers without unplugging cables. The unit targets professionals who need clean desk space and instant system changes.

Upgrade from manual cable swaps

Replacing physical cable changes with front-panel switching removes wear on DisplayPort connectors and cuts transition time to seconds. The jump is worth it when daily workflows demand frequent moves between a workstation and a laptop or between secure and open networks. Independent USB and audio paths mean peripherals stay active on one host while video switches to the other.

Video headroom up to 2560 x 1600

The switch passes DisplayPort signals at 1600 x 1200, 1920 x 1080, 1920 x 1200 and 2560 x 1600 dual-link resolutions. It comfortably handles standard office monitors and high-resolution panels up to that ceiling. Bandwidth runs out beyond dual-link wqxga, so 4K or multi-stream configurations are not supported.

Questions about this item

What DisplayPort video resolutions does the KV9702A support?

The switch passes DisplayPort signals up to 1600 x 1200, 1920 x 1080, 1920 x 1200 and 2560 x 1600 dual-link resolutions.

How do I connect the KV9702A and avoid the common mistake?

Plug each computer’s DisplayPort, USB and audio cables into the matching ports; the error is swapping the USB and audio leads between ports, which breaks independent switching.

When should I replace the KV9702A?

Replace it if the DisplayPort link fails to sync at 2560 x 1600, USB peripherals stop switching independently, or audio develops static that persists across all connected sources.
