Gefen announces two KVM switchers

14 September 2011

Gefen has announced two KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) switchers for DisplayPort computer systems using USB 2.0 peripherals.

The 4x1 DPKVM Switcher and the 8x1 DPKVM Switcher connect up to four or eight computers to the same monitor and keyboard/mouse connection. This streamlines the desktop and eliminates the need for too many devices.

The 4x1 rack mountable Switcher comes equipped with four DisplayPort inputs with USB 2.0 and audio. One DisplayPort output delivers resolutions up to 2560x1600. The USB output drives any keyboard/mouse combination while the audio output supports L/R speakers. Users switch between all four computers by IR remote, front panel selector or RS-232 connection.

The 8x1 rack mountable Switcher comes equipped with eight DisplayPort inputs with USB 2.0 and audio. One DisplayPort output delivers resolutions up to 2560x1600. The USB output drives any keyboard/mouse combination while the audio output supports L/R speakers. Users switch between all four computers by IR remote, front panel selector or RS-232 connection.
