This newest enlargement of the Black Box ServSwitch DT series supports DisplayPort connections, a new video standard with high resolution video up to UXGA (1600 x 1200), full HD (1920 x 1080), WUXA (1920 x 1200) WQXGA (2560 x 1600, dual-link). The ServSwitch DT Display Port combines Display Port, USB keyboard/mouse switching and USB peripheral sharing in one device. Two models are available: 2-port (KV9702A) and 4-port (KV9704A). You can easily operate up to four PCs, G3/G4 Macintosh® computers, or Mac® Pros from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse, and monitor, saving you space, time, equipment, and money.
Its peripheral sharing function enables you to share more USB peripherals among all computers. The units also support bidirectional audio. Users can switch among up to two or four KVM sources and control the systems using a USB keyboard and mouse, USB peripherals, and bidirectional audio, and view them with a DisplayPort supported monitor. A unique tracking system enables the USB or audio devices to operate independently.
Installation is as easy as connecting USB A-B cables between computers and the ServSwitch DT DisplayPort KVM. To select a port, just press the front-panel button(s). The built-in USB hub ensures smooth switching from one computer to the other. It reduces redundant cables and encourages a neat and tidy working environment.
