KVM switch MicroConnect MC-DP-KVM201K — 4K Ultra HD 3840 x 2160 pixels

MicroConnect MC-DP-KVM201K — 4K Ultra HD 3840 x 2160 pixels is a DisplayPort KVM switch that enables control of multiple computers from a single keyboard, monitor and mouse while preserving 4K video quality. The device is engineered for desktop workstations and small server environments where reliable display performance and simple system switching are required. It reduces the need for duplicate peripherals and helps maintain a neater workspace by consolidating video and USB input signals into one unit.

Advantages

The KVM switch supports 4K Ultra HD resolution at 3840 x 2160 pixels, ensuring high-detail video when switching between sources. It provides seamless switching of keyboard, video and mouse signals and maintains signal integrity for connected DisplayPort displays. Compact design and straightforward cabling simplify installation on a desk or in a small rack environment. The unit supports common input devices through standard USB connections, enabling immediate use with existing keyboards and mice without additional drivers.

Suitable for

• Multisystem desktop setups where one monitor and input set must serve multiple computers
• Small server or test bench environments requiring quick switching between machines
• Workstations that need to maintain 4K video output while sharing peripherals
• IT maintenance desks and control stations with limited space and cabling

Key specifications

• Video interface: DisplayPort
• Maximum supported resolution: 3840 x 2160 pixels (4K Ultra HD)
• Control: keyboard and mouse switching
• USB connectivity for peripherals
• Form factor: compact desktop unit suitable for small installations

How to use

Connect the DisplayPort outputs of the computers to the corresponding input ports on the KVM switch and attach the monitor to the output DisplayPort port. Plug a USB keyboard and mouse into the front or designated USB ports of the switch for peripheral sharing. Use the device’s switching control (button, hotkey or front panel selector as provided) to change the active computer; the display will switch to the selected source while the keyboard and mouse follow the same selection. Ensure connected displays and graphics outputs are configured for 4K output in the operating system if 4K resolution is required.

Recommendations

For best results with 4K video, use high-quality DisplayPort cables rated for 4K resolution, verify that each computer’s graphics settings are set to the desired resolution and refresh rate, and keep firmware or drivers for connected peripherals up to date. Position the unit where cables remain untensioned to avoid connector strain.
