16K@60Hz DP 2x1 Bi-Direction Switch

This manual DisplayPort-compatible switch connects two sources to one display or one source to two displays. A front-panel Select button toggles the active signal path. The unit requires external 5 V power delivered through its USB-C port to operate.

Supported Resolutions and Bandwidth

The switch passes video up to 16K at 60 Hz, 8K at 120 Hz and 4K at 240 Hz. It also handles 4K at 144 Hz and 1080P at 240 Hz with throughput up to 80 Gbps. A standard DP2.0 cable is needed to achieve the highest resolution and refresh combinations.

Manual Switching for Single-Path Workflows

This suits users who need to share one monitor between two computers or send one computer to either of two screens without simultaneous output. Buyers who require both displays active at the same time, or who want automatic input detection, should consider a different device.

Questions about this item

How does the 16K@60Hz rating translate when I connect real sources and displays?

The switch passes up to 16K at 60 Hz, 8K at 120 Hz, 4K at 240 Hz or 144 Hz, and 1080p at 240 Hz, provided you use a standard DP2.0 cable and supply 5 V power via the USB-C port.

What DisplayPort version does the bi-directional switch implement and what bandwidth ceiling does that impose?

The device is built to the DP2.0 specification, giving a maximum throughput of 80 Gbps and full backward compatibility with earlier DisplayPort standards.

What physical ports and power connection must I accommodate to install this unit?

Three DisplayPort sockets (two on one side, one on the other) plus a USB-C socket for the required 5 V external supply; the switch is manual, so allow space for the front-panel Select button.
