Four-Port DisplayPort 1.4 KVM Switch
This StarTech KVM switch lets you share one DisplayPort monitor, keyboard, mouse and four USB peripherals between two computers. It supports video resolutions up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 144Hz and 120Hz, plus ultrawide 5120x1440 at 60Hz. HDR pass-through preserves contrast and colour depth for creative work. A universal power adapter and hotkey or push-button switching are included.
Suited For Dual-PC Workstations
The switch serves users who need to control two DisplayPort-equipped PCs from a single high-refresh-rate display and shared USB 3.0 and 2.0 devices. It works with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS and Linux without extra drivers. It is not for setups that require more than two connected computers or need video inputs other than DisplayPort 1.4. Audio can follow the video or stay locked to one host independently.
Two-Computer Limit Decides Fit
The defining constraint is that only two host computers can be connected at once. If your workflow demands switching among three or four systems, this unit will not cover it. Buyers needing USB-C or HDMI video sources should look elsewhere, as the switch accepts only native DisplayPort 1.4 inputs.

Questions about this item
Does the 12-volt power adapter keep the switch cool during all-day 8K 60Hz use?
The unit operates at 0 degrees Celsius ambient and draws 12 volts from the included universal adapter, with no fan noise reported.
Which cables must I already own to connect two computers to the four DisplayPort 1.4 ports?
You need two DisplayPort 1.4 cables for video and two USB-A cables for keyboard and mouse; the box supplies only the power adapter and rubber feet.
Will my older 4K 120Hz monitor work through the MST pass-through alongside an 8K 60Hz display?
Yes, the switch supports 4K 144Hz and 120Hz as well as ultrawide 5120x1440 at 60Hz, so a 4K 120Hz panel is compatible.
