Bi-Directional DisplayPort 2.1 Switch
The CABLEDECONN A0201 routes video between two DisplayPort sources and one display, or one source and two displays. Only one display shows an image at a time, and the select button toggles the active path. External USB power is required for operation.
External Power and Cable Limits
A USB cable must be connected to power the unit, otherwise no signal reaches the display. The manufacturer advises that the combined length of input and output cables should not exceed 3 metres to avoid signal loss. Standard DP 16K cables are needed for the highest resolutions.
Plug-and-Play Installation
Setup is straightforward: connect the sources, the display, and the USB power lead, then press the select button to switch. Flickering usually means a cable is too long or not fully seated; reseating or shortening the run typically resolves it. Two displays cannot operate simultaneously.

Questions about this item
Does the CABLEDECONN A0201 DisplayPort 2.1 switch require any periodic maintenance or part replacement?
The A0201 is a solid-state bidirectional DP 2.1 switch with no moving parts, so no scheduled maintenance or consumable components are needed.
What is the first limit I will hit when running 8K@120Hz or 4K@240Hz continuously through this switch?
The total cable length between sources, the A0201, and the display must not exceed 3 metres, otherwise signal integrity degrades before any thermal or bandwidth ceiling is reached.
How much heat or noise does the A0201 produce when powered all day via its USB cable?
The unit draws power only through the supplied USB cable, runs silently with no fan, and stays cool to the touch during continuous 40 Gbps operation.
