Secure KVM for dual-monitor workstations
The Black Box KVS4-2004HVX is a NIAP PP 4.0 evaluated secure KVM switch that lets two local operators share four computers. Each console drives dual displays through FlexPort HDMI or DisplayPort outputs while keyboard and mouse connect via USB Type-A ports. Audio switching is provided through 3.5 mm stereo connectors. The unit ships new with an external 12 V DC power adapter.
Dual-monitor 4K at 30 Hz
The decisive specification is the maximum video resolution of 3840 x 2160 at 30 Hz across both monitors. FlexPort inputs accept either HDMI or DisplayPort cables up to 20 ft on each side, and automatic input equalisation maintains signal integrity. USB 1.1 and 2.0 keyboard and mouse emulation keeps peripheral focus stable during switching. Front-panel push buttons select the active computer.
Handles four secure workstations
The switch comfortably manages four isolated computers for two operators who need simultaneous dual-monitor 4K workflows. It runs out when a third local console is required, when 4K at 60 Hz is needed, or when USB peripheral sharing beyond keyboard and mouse is expected. CAC support is not included, and the USB ports are limited to keyboard and mouse emulation only.

Questions about this item
What does the 3840x2160 at 30 Hz figure mean when I connect two monitors?
Each display runs at up to 4K resolution but is limited to a 30 Hz refresh rate, so motion will be smoother at lower resolutions.
Which video interface is used and what does it cap in practice?
FlexPort accepts either HDMI or DisplayPort on each of the eight inputs and two outputs, and the link tops out at 4K 30 Hz regardless of cable type.
How much desk space and power does the unit need to fit and run?
The chassis measures 12.57 inches wide, 1.76 inches high and 6.69 inches deep, weighs 4.2 lb, and requires the included 12 V 3 A centre-pin-positive adapter.
