DIGITUS KVM Switch 4x1 DP DP/HDMI Out USB 4Kx2K 60Hz

The DIGITUS KVM Switch 4-Port (DS-12890) lets you control four DisplayPort-equipped computers with a single USB keyboard and mouse and output to a single monitor via DisplayPort or HDMI. It supports 4K at 60 Hz and is compatible with HDMI 2.0, HDCP 2.2, DisplayPort 1.2, HDR and FreeSync. The unit includes audio connections for microphone and speaker, an integrated USB hub with two USB 3.0 ports for additional peripherals, and a rugged metal housing with optional wall mounting.

Advantages

The switch enables seamless switching between four computers using the front-panel button, an included remote control with external receiver, or keyboard hotkeys. Plug-and-play operation requires no drivers, and front-panel LEDs indicate active connections and status. Two front USB 3.0 ports provide shared access to USB sticks or external drives across all connected PCs. The slim, metal design offers durability and space-saving installation options.

• Multisystem workstations where one keyboard, mouse and monitor are shared

How to use

Connect each computer's DisplayPort output to one of the four DP inputs on the KVM switch, and connect the monitor to the device's DP or HDMI output. Plug a USB keyboard and mouse into the dedicated USB ports on the switch, and connect speakers and microphone if audio switching is needed. Use the front-panel button, the supplied remote control (with external IR receiver) or keyboard hotkeys to switch control and video output between connected computers. Insert USB storage devices into the front USB 3.0 ports to share them across all connected systems.

Recommendations

Place the KVM switch where the remote's IR receiver has a clear line of sight or use the supplied external receiver cable if the unit will be wall-mounted or positioned out of direct range. For stable 4K@60Hz performance, use high-quality certified DisplayPort or HDMI cables and ensure connected graphics outputs support the listed standards.
