The Gefen 4x1 DVI KVM DL/SL Switcher

The rack-mountable Gefen 4x1 dual link/single link DVI KVM DL/SL Switcher offers an economical solution by eliminating the need to purchase many displays for each computer in a studio or lab situation. A plug-and-play solution that supports both Macintosh and IBM-PC computers, the 4x1 DVI KVM DL/SL Switcher shares one DVI display with up to four computers or other DVI video sources. A single USB 2.0 port, keyboard & mouse ports, and an analog audio jack are also switched. The switcher saves space on your desktop by eliminating a crowded workspace full of DVI monitors, keyboards & mice, and USB and audio cables. Switching of DVI sources is easy and reliable.

How It Works

The DVI monitor is connected to the 4x1 DVI KVM DL/SL Switcher’s output. Up to four DVI video/USB/Audio sources connect to the switcher’s inputs using included high quality DVI, USB and Audio cables. The included power supply is connected to the switcher via the locking power plug and then to a power outlet. The currently selected DVI video signal appears on the shared monitor. DVI Video sources (and optionally keyboards & mice, USB and audio cables) are selected/switched using the RMT-4IR remote control, RS-232 control, or the input selector push button on the front panel of the switcher.
