Dual-monitor KVM for two computers
This KVM switch connects two computers to two monitors and four USB 3.0 peripherals through a single button press. It accepts one DisplayPort and one HDMI input from each computer, so both systems must provide dual-display output. The unit is designed for home offices, creative workstations and gaming desks that need shared keyboards, mice, printers or external drives without cable swapping. No software or drivers are required for operation.
Replaces manual cable swapping
Moving from separate monitor and USB cables for each computer to this switch removes the need to reach behind displays and reconnect devices when changing systems. The upgrade is worthwhile when you regularly alternate between two computers that both support dual-head output and you want to keep a single keyboard, mouse and storage set on the desk. If only one computer has dual outputs, the second monitor cannot be driven through the switch.
Sustained 8K60 and 5 Gbps throughput
The switch maintains 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at 60 Hz continuously through its DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 paths, with HDR10+ and HDCP 2.3 pass-through. USB 3.0 ports sustain 5 Gbps transfer rates during extended file copies, so external SSDs and high-resolution captures do not throttle after an initial burst. EDID emulation keeps display handshakes stable during long sessions, preventing blank screens or resolution resets when the inactive computer sleeps or updates.

Questions about this item
What video cables are built into the AV-300-BK-US for connecting two computers?
The unit includes built-in cables for DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 output ports, delivering 8K@60Hz and 4K@60Hz resolution with HDR10+ and HDCP 2.3/2.2 support.
How do you switch between the two computers, and what common step is missed?
Press the panel buttons or use the included wired remote control; ensure each computer actually supports dual-display output before expecting the dual-monitor feature to work.
Which USB ports on the AV-300-BK-US may need attention after heavy use?
The four USB 3.0 ports — three USB-A and one USB-C — handle all peripheral sharing; the USB-C port sees the most insertions and should be checked first if devices drop out.
