Dual Monitor KVM Switch for Two PCs

This KVM switch lets one keyboard, mouse and two monitors control two computers. It supports extend or copy display modes, switched by pressing Win+P on the attached system. Four USB 3.0 ports share peripherals such as printers or scanners between both machines. Audio and microphone switching is also provided.

Thermals, Noise and Power Draw

The unit ships with a 12 V power adapter and operates without fans, so it adds no audible noise to the workspace. Power consumption is limited to the adapter rating and the connected USB devices. No thermal throttling or active cooling is involved in normal use.

8K 60 Hz HDMI and 4K 144 Hz DisplayPort

HDMI 2.1 inputs accept up to 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at 120 Hz, while DisplayPort 1.4 inputs accept up to 8K at 30 Hz and 4K at 144 Hz. Both interfaces are backward compatible with lower resolutions such as 1440p or 1080p. Shorter, high-quality HDMI 2.1 and DP 1.4 cables are required for reliable operation at the highest modes.

Questions about this item

How do I connect both monitors and both PCs to the AO-8202DH-US-1227, and what cable mistake stops the USB ports from working?

Each computer needs one HDMI 2.1 cable, one DisplayPort 1.4 cable and one USB 3.0 cable to the KVM; if the upstream USB 3.0 ports are left unplugged or plugged into the wrong PC, the four downstream USB 3.0 ports will not recognise any device.

What regular upkeep does the AO-8202DH-US-1227 require, and which consumable part will need replacing first?

No scheduled maintenance is needed; the 12 V power adapter is the only component likely to age and eventually require replacement.

At what resolution and refresh-rate combination does the AO-8202DH-US-1227 hit its bandwidth ceiling first during long sessions?

The DisplayPort input reaches its limit at 8K 30 Hz or 4K 144 Hz, while the HDMI input stops at 8K 60 Hz or 4K 120 Hz, so sustained 4K 144 Hz on the DisplayPort side is the first hard ceiling.
