The Gefen 4x1 DPKVM Switcher

Easily switch between four computers using DisplayPort with the Gefen 4x1 DPKVM Switcher.

The rack-mountable Gefen 4x1 DPKVM Switcher offers an economical solution for switching between four different computers to one display location. In addi- tion, USB peripherals and audio are carried at the same time from each source making this a very versatile solution.

Eliminating the need to purchase many displays, keyboards and other acces- sories for each computer in a studio or professional environment, this versatile solution saves money, supports both Mac and PC-type computers, and offers uncluttered and increased desktop space.

The 4x1 DPKVM Switcher outputs are: One DisplayPort, two USB 2.0 ports (used for keyboard, mouse and other USB 2.0 peripherals) and an analog L/R audio. This Switcher can be controlled using front panel discrete switching, the included IR Remote control, or the RS-232 port for switching automation.

The 4x1 DPKVM Switcher is compatible with all operating systems using Display- Port and USB.

How It Works

Connect the four included 6-foot DisplayPort cables between the computers and the Switcher inputs. Connect the four included USB cables between the computers and the USB inputs. Connect the four included audio cables between the computers and the audio inputs. Connect the Switcher output to the monitor using a DisplayPort cable.
