Secure 8-Port DisplayPort KVM Switch
The Black Box SS8P-SH-DP-U lets one operator control eight DisplayPort computers from a single console using one keyboard, one mouse and one monitor. It is built for government, defence, finance, healthcare and other environments where data isolation between ports is mandatory. NIAP Protection Profile v. 3.0 certification confirms the design meets strict peripheral-switching security requirements.
Verify console and cabling before ordering
Your console monitor must accept a DisplayPort input at 3840x2160 resolution. The switch provides one DisplayPort output, two USB-A ports for keyboard and mouse, and one audio jack. Each of the eight target computers needs a DisplayPort video cable, a USB-B cable and an audio cable, all supplied separately. The unit requires a 100-240 VAC external power adapter delivering 12 VDC at 2 A.
Sustained operation within rated thermal limits
The chassis is rated for continuous use between 32 and 104 °F with humidity up to 80 percent non-condensing. Fixed firmware, non-reprogrammable ROM and automatic keyboard cache clearing prevent persistent data retention during long sessions. Anti-tamper hologram seals and chassis intrusion detection maintain physical security without degrading video performance at 30 Hz refresh.

Questions about this item
What cables and accessories come in the box and what must be purchased separately?

The specifications list only an 8-port version. How do I decide which port count to choose?
This model provides eight computer ports. If you need to control fewer than eight systems, the 2-port or 4-port variants in the same series are available; select the version that matches the number of computers you will connect.
The headline resolution is 3840 x 2160 at 30 Hz. What does that mean for my monitor in daily use?
