16-port DVI-I KVM switch
The Black Box KVS4-2008D is a secure KVM switch that lets one operator control up to 16 computers from a dual-monitor console. It supports DVI-I video connections on every port and provides USB 1.1 Type-A ports for keyboard and mouse sharing. The unit is certified to the NIAP Protection Profile for Peripheral Sharing Device Version 4.0.
Suited for high-security multi-system desks
This switch fits environments where operators must manage many isolated workstations without crossing security domains. It handles dual-monitor DVI-I output at 2560 x 1600 @ 60Hz and uses an external power supply. Buyers who need HDMI, DisplayPort or USB 2.0 peripheral support should look at other models.
Capacity and headroom
The 16 computer ports give ample room for large server rooms or trading floors, while the dual DVI-I outputs drive two high-resolution displays simultaneously. Video bandwidth tops out at 2560 x 1600 @ 60Hz, so 4K or higher-refresh workflows will exceed the switch capability. USB 1.1 limits keyboard and mouse traffic to low-speed devices only.

Questions about this item
Do I need DVI-I cables to connect my sixteen computers to the KVS4-2008D?
Yes, the switch provides sixteen DVI-I input ports, so each computer requires a DVI-I video cable.
Can I keep using my existing USB 1.1 keyboard and mouse with this switch?
The console side offers two USB 1.1 Type-A ports, so legacy USB 1.1 keyboards and mice will work directly.

Check the on-screen display or your operating system's display settings to confirm the resolution reads 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz.
