Dual-monitor KVM for two computers

This DisplayPort 1.4 KVM switch lets two PCs share two monitors and three USB 3.0 peripherals such as a keyboard, mouse and printer. It supports extended and mirror display modes and includes a wired remote button for quick switching. Audio and microphone pass-through are provided via 3.5 mm jacks. A 12 V power adapter is included for stable operation.

Video bandwidth and OS constraints

The switch handles up to 8K at 60 Hz or 4K at 144 Hz over DisplayPort 1.4, with backward compatibility down to 1080p and 720p. Switching between computers takes two to four seconds. The unit works with major operating systems but does not add features the host graphics hardware cannot already deliver. Audio follows the active video channel.

Simple desktop installation

Connect each computer with the supplied DisplayPort and USB 3.0 cables, attach the monitors, plug in the power adapter and press the button or wired remote to switch. The compact 3.94 x 1.97 x 1.18 inch enclosure fits on a desk. Buyers who need more than two computers, single-monitor operation or switching via hotkeys should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between the 8K 60 Hz and 4K 144 Hz modes for my dual-monitor setup?

Choose 8K at 60 Hz when your monitors and graphics cards support that resolution; choose 4K at 144 Hz for higher refresh rates on 4K panels. Both modes run over the same DisplayPort 1.4 links and are backward compatible with 4K 60 Hz, 1080p and 720p.

What does the 8K 60 Hz rating actually deliver when the switch is connected to two PCs and two displays?

It lets each computer drive two monitors at up to 8K resolution and 60 Hz refresh, provided the source GPUs and the monitors themselves support that timing. The switch passes the signal without compression and adds 2 to 4 seconds when switching between the two PCs.

Which DisplayPort version does the switch use and what bandwidth limit does that impose?

The switch uses DisplayPort 1.4 on all four video ports, which caps the total video bandwidth to the DP 1.4 maximum. This enables the stated 8K 60 Hz and 4K 144 Hz modes while remaining compatible with lower resolutions such as 4K 60 Hz, 1080p and 720p.
