4-Port Quad Head DisplayPort KVM Switch with USB 2.0 and Stereo Audio
The DPN-4QUAD-S is a dedicated multi-platform KVM switch capable of managing up to 4 different computers through four DisplayPort monitors, one USB keyboard & mouse, a single set of speakers and a USB 2.0 device. The USB emulation technology utilized by the DPN-4QUAD-S enables immediate hotkey source switching through a remote USB keyboard and mouse.
The DPN-4QUAD-S uses DisplayPort connectors providing high resolutions of up to 4K (3840x2160 @ 30Hz) with zero pixel loss from TMDS signal correction.
Source switching made easy
The DPN-4QUAD-S provides a simplified management approach for up to 4 computers with DisplayPort, stereo audio, and USB 2.0 outputs. This dynamic KVM console can be controlled remotely from easily accessible keyboard hotkeys or RS-232 commands, as well as directly through the console’s easy to read front panel.
EDID learning & programming
Detection of DDC signals for all attached devices is effortless with the DPN-4QUAD-S due to its real EDID learning and programming. This is vital in optimizing the resolution of the selected graphics card to properly display on the remote monitor. Furthermore, the EDID learning feature continues to replicate the right DDC for the computer to enable the display card to effectively work when unused ports are not selected.
Full USB keyboard and mouse emulation
The USB keyboard and mouse emulation utilized by the DPN-4QUAD-S provides accurate and quick source switching by means of keyboard hotkeys. The DPN-4QUAD-S imitates 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 while switching without interruptions.
Real-world applications
The DPN-4QUAD-S has a broad range of applications, but the main function of this KVM switch is to centralize the access of several computers into one comprehensive PC. Not only does it function as a KVM console, it also supports USB 2.0 functionality. This allows a user at the console to use USB devices that would otherwise be unavailable with conventional KVM devices.
For example, it allows a user to use a flash memory drive or camera without having to plug it directly into the remote computer. The DPN-4QUAD-S is a perfect solution for the medical or industrial field, where it may not be practical or safe to have one or more computers in the general vicinity.
This is an example of what a setup would look like.
