Smart-AVI DPN-4DUO-S 4-Port Dual-Head Displayport KVM Switch

4-Port Dual-Head Displayport KVM Switch

• 16 IN X 48 OUT
• 250MHz video bandwidth
• Infrared, RS232 and TCP/IP control

The Smart-AVI DPN-4DUO-S KVM Switch is capable of managing up to 4 different computers through two DisplayPort monitors, one USB keyboard & mouse. The USB emulation technology utilized by the DPN-4Duo-S enables immediate hotkey source switching through a remote USB keyboard and mouse. The DPN-4 Duo uses DisplayPort connectors providing high resolutions of up to 4K (3840x2160 @ 30Hz) with zero pixel loss from TMDS signal correction. Whenever a monitor is connected the EDID for that monitor is learned. There is no EDID emulation.

Source switching made easy

The DPN-4Duo-S provides a simplified management approach for four DisplayPort equipped computers USB 2.0 outputs for a keyboard, mouse and other USB peripheral devices. This dynamic KVM console can be controlled keyboard hotkeys or RS-232 commands, as well as directly through the console’s easy-to-read front panel.

EDID pass-through

The DPN-4Duo-S features EDID Pass-Through technology, which enables smooth and efficient switching, making the device easy to implement in virtually any scenario. This plug-and-play EDID functionality makes set up hassle-free and simple.

Full USB keyboard and mouse emulation

The USB keyboard and mouse emulation utilized by DPN-4Duo-S provides quick source switching via keyboard hotkeys. The DPN-4Duo-S simulates the presence of a keyboard and mouse for every attached computer through a USB cable. This is essential as it simulates the existence of the keyboard and mouse to all the computers in order to switch without interruptions.

Real-world applications

The DPN-4Duo-S has a broad range of applications, but the main function is to centralize the access of up to four dual-head computers that support DisplayPort displays in a single workstation. Not only does it function as a KVM console, but it also supports USB 2.0 functionality. This allows users to access nearly USB device, including those not supported by other KVM switches. The DPN-4Duo-S is the ideal solution for medical, industrial, studio and defense applications, where it is not practical or safe to have multiple CPUs in the vicinity of the workstation.
