The Gefen 2x1 DisplayPort KVM
The 2x1 DisplayPort KVM Switcher allows effortless switching of DisplayPort
between two computers using just one display and one USB2.0 port for a
keyboard and mouse. Audio, video and control signals are switched for each
computer upon selection, providing an easy and effective method of accessing
two computers from one workstation without the hassle of network. Switching can
also be performed through the front panel Select button, IR remote control or via
RS232.
How It Works
DisplayPort’s plug-and-play construction and compact connector enables faster,
easier installations with less chance of errors.
Connect a DisplayPort display and USB 2.0 keyboard/mouse to the Switcher’s
outputs. Connect both computers’ DisplayPort, USB and audio ports to the
Switcher’s inputs using the supplied cables. The Switcher is compatible with both
Macintosh and PC keyboards, mice and displays.
Note: If the source and/or display is not DisplayPort compliant, a protocol-
speci c protocol adapter will be required in order to connect the source to the
Switcher and/or the Switcher to the high-resolution display.
