IOGEAR 2-Port 4K DisplayPort KVMP Switch with Dual Video Out & RS-232

Featuring a DCI 4K resolution of 4096 x 2106 at 60 Hz, the 2-Port 4K DisplayPort KVMP Switch with Dual Video Out & RS-232 from IOGEAR allows users to connect and share dual DCI 4K displays and two USB peripherals between two computers with the push of a button. Users can control two DisplayPort-enabled desktops or laptops using a single keyboard, mouse, HDMI, and/or DisplayPort monitors, as well as expand their peripherals connectivity with USB 3.0, which is also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1, in an effort to utilize faster data rates of up to 5 Gb/s and eliminate redundant hardware.

To use this switch, a DisplayPort or HDMI display, a 104-key wired USB keyboard, and a 2- or 3-button mouse are required on the console end, with a microphone and speakers being optional. On the computer end, a DisplayPort and USB Type-A port are required, with audio ports being optional. Supported operating systems include Windows, Mac, Oracle Solaris, Linux, UNIX, and other USB-supported systems. Included are two DisplayPort cables, two USB 3.0 cables, two audio cable sets, and a power adapter. Protection is provided by a limited 3-year warranty.

General Features

4K DCI Experience

The DisplayPort 1.2 KVMP technology delivers up to 4K DCI (Digital Cinema Initiatives) resolution standard, which is 4096 x 2160 at a frame rate of 60 Hz. This 2-Port 4K KVMP Switch is designed for environments requiring high graphics resolution, such as professional film and video production industries. Customize your video content viewing from one to two monitors, from mirror image to extended image, for a more cinematic experience. IOGEAR's 4K DisplayPort KVMP Switch also enhances consumer electronics applications in motion graphics design, animation, engineering, architecture, and media design.

Please bear in mind that your source must be DisplayPort 1.2 MST compliant to extend viewing. A DisplayPort 1.1 source supports mirror viewing only.

Dual Monitor Experience From a Single Video Input

For those that need to add a second monitor for a full production environment, the IOGEAR 2-Port 4K DisplayPort KVMP Switch with Dual Video Out is a strong solution. Turn your single video input into a dual video output by connecting both your DisplayPort and HDMI monitors and HDMI. This switch is suited for applications like call centers, retail stores, concession stands, outdoor events, and other applications. Host a training session or presentation by mirroring your content to a separate HDMI monitor wirelessly by connecting the KVM switch to an HDMI wireless transmitter, such as the IOGEAR Wireless HDMI Transmitter and Receiver Kit (GWHD11).

Convenient Switching Methods

Switch and access two DisplayPort computers from a simple push button on the front panel, hotkey combination on your keyboard, or 3-button USB wheel mouse. With mouse emulation turned on, quickly switch between connected computers by clicking the wheel button on your 3-button USB mouse. IOGEAR's 2-Port 4K DisplayPort KVMP Switch also offers the option to send RS-232 commands via serial port for source switching, making it well-suited for 911 call centers, broadcast centers, video control rooms, or any application where you need to remotely control the KVM from a different room.

Smart Connectivity

Additional smart connectivity features turn your workstation into a convenient and easy-to-use powerhouse. The Power on Detection feature helps ensure that this KVMP will automatically connect to the next powered-on computer and users can add up to three monitors for an expanded workstation. The built-in USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports allow connectivity of up to 5 Gb/s and provide backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 legacy devices.

Please bear in mind that your source must be DisplayPort 1.2 MST compliant to extend viewing. A DisplayPort 1.1 source supports mirror viewing only.

Cost-Effective Solution

Avoid unplugging and plugging USB peripherals and audio devices between your two computers. Share your peripherals with the push of a button and forget about purchasing additional keyboards, mice, monitors, hard drives, flash drives, printers, and more. Additionally, straightforward firmware updates help eliminate the need to buy upgraded KVMP switches.
