Two-Computer Desktop Switch
The StarTech.com SV231DPUA is a desktop KVM switch that lets one user control two computers from a single DisplayPort monitor, USB keyboard and mouse, and stereo audio peripherals. It presents three DisplayPort female ports, six USB ports and four 3.5 mm audio jacks for a complete workstation consolidation.
Stable 60 Hz Output Under Continuous Use
The unit maintains a maximum video resolution of 3840 x 2400 while the guaranteed operating mode is 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz, so sustained desktop workloads stay flicker-free without thermal throttling. Front-panel push buttons and configurable hot-key sequences switch the active PC instantly, and green and red LEDs confirm the selected port at a glance.
DisplayPort 1.2 Bandwidth Ceiling
The 3840 x 2400 ceiling reflects the practical bandwidth limit of the DisplayPort interface used, so higher refresh rates or deeper colour depths at that resolution are not supported. Audio and USB 2.0 peripheral sharing share the same switch fabric, meaning all connected devices follow the same two-computer limit.

Questions about this item
Does the SV231DPUA generate noticeable heat or noise when left on 24/7?
The desktop unit has no fan listed and draws power from a 100 V AC - 240 V AC adapter, so it runs silently with minimal warmth in a 0 - 80% RH environment.
What cables must I already own to connect two computers and one DisplayPort monitor?
You need two DisplayPort cables for the PC inputs, one DisplayPort cable for the monitor output, two USB B-to-A cables for keyboard and mouse, and 3.5 mm audio cables if you want sound switching.
Will my older 2560 x 1600 @ 60 Hz monitor work at its native resolution through this KVM?
Yes, the switch supports 2560 x 1600 @ 60 Hz directly and can pass signals up to 3840 x 2400, so the older display runs at full resolution without scaling.
