Bi-Directional 8K DP 1.4 Switch

This DisplayPort switch lets you connect two DP sources to one display or one source to two displays. Only one display is active at a time and switching is done with a front-panel button. It suits users who share a monitor between two PCs or toggle a single PC between two screens.

Replaces Manual Cable Swapping

The unit removes the need to unplug and replug DisplayPort cables when changing sources or destinations. The jump is worth it when you switch several times a day and want to preserve port life on expensive GPUs and monitors. It does not serve setups that need both screens active simultaneously.

Limited to One Active Link at 32.4 Gbps

Bandwidth tops out at 32.4 Gbps, so 8K at 30 Hz, 4K at 120 Hz or 1080p at 240 Hz are the highest supported modes. The active link always follows the lower-capability device in the chain. The switch requires external power and standard DP 1.4 cables to reach these rates.

Questions about this item

Does the 8K DP 1.4 switch need external power to operate?

Yes, the unit requires external power; connect the supplied adapter before linking any DisplayPort cables.

What is the correct order to connect cables and press the Select button?

Power the switch first, attach all DP 1.4 cables, then press the Select button to choose the active source or display.

Will the LED indicator or Select button wear out with daily switching?

The button and LED are rated for repeated use; no user-replaceable parts are specified, so the whole switch would be replaced if either fails.
