What this KVM switch does

The StarTech SV431HU34K6 lets you control four HDMI computers from one keyboard, mouse and 4K 60 Hz display. It adds a two-port USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub and four dedicated USB 1.1 HID ports so peripherals stay connected while you switch systems with front-panel buttons or programmable hotkeys.

Who it suits and who it does not

It suits administrators, developers or home-office users who need to share one monitor and USB devices across four PCs or servers. It does not suit anyone needing multi-monitor output, on-screen display menus, IP-based remote management or switching for more than four sources.

Capacity and headroom

The switch passes 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz with HDR10 and HDCP 2.2, plus 7.1-channel or stereo audio over HDMI. USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports deliver 5 Gbps for storage or docks, while HID ports handle keyboards and mice. Auto-scan intervals of 3, 8, 15 and 30 seconds automate rotation, and the unit is rated for 143 000 hours MTBF at up to 50 °C.

Questions about this item

Which cables do I need to connect my four computers to the SV431HU34K6?

Each computer requires an HDMI 2.0 cable for video and a USB 3.0 Type-B cable for keyboard, mouse and hub data; four of each are needed for four systems.

Will my older 1080p monitors and USB 2.0 keyboards work with this KVM?

Yes — the HDMI 2.0 port scales down to 1080p and the USB 1.1 HID ports accept legacy keyboards and mice without extra adapters.

How can I confirm the switch is delivering 4K 60 Hz HDR to my display?

The front-panel LED shows the active port; verify 3840 x 2160 @60 Hz and HDR10 in your monitor’s on-screen information menu after switching.
