Dual-Monitor KVM for Mixed DP/HDMI Setups

This StarTech KVM switch lets you share a keyboard, mouse, audio device and dual monitors between two computers. It accepts one DisplayPort and one HDMI console monitor simultaneously without adapters. The unit works with any operating system and hardware platform and supports BIOS/UEFI control. Switching is handled via front push-buttons or configurable hotkeys.

Silent Passive Operation with External Power

The desktop enclosure measures 6.4 in by 3.9 in by 2.6 in and weighs 1.22 kilograms. It draws power from an included barrel adapter with a 5.50 mm outer diameter and 2.10 mm inner diameter. No internal fans are present so the switch runs silently. Typical power consumption is low because the device only routes video, USB and audio signals between the two connected hosts.

Integrated 5 Gbps Hub and Dedicated HID Ports

Two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports on the console side deliver up to 5 Gbps for peripherals such as drives or cameras. Two additional USB 1.1 Type-A ports are reserved for keyboard and mouse HID traffic to ensure responsive switching. Separate 3.5 mm stereo jacks handle microphone and speaker audio for each computer. No software installation is required for any function.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the two computers to the KVM switch and which cable step is often missed?

Connect each computer to one of the two DisplayPort and two HDMI host ports, plus a USB 3.2 Type-B cable for keyboard and mouse control; the step often missed is plugging in both video cables per computer so dual-monitor switching works.

What parts will need replacement after extended use of this KVM switch?

The unit has no user-serviceable parts; the external power adapter and any connected cables are the only items that may wear out and need swapping over time.

What is the first limitation I will hit when running both monitors at 4K 60 Hz continuously?

The console video outputs support 4K at 60 Hz, so sustained dual-monitor operation at that resolution and refresh rate is within the specified capability of the switch.
