- Computer Selection via front panel, hotkeys, mouse, and RS-232 commands
- 2- Port USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub with SuperSpeed 5 Gbps data transfer rates
- Supports DisplayPort Dual-Mode technology (DP++)1
- Supports MST (Multi-Stream Transport)2
- Supports Console keyboard emulation / bypass feature
- Supports Console mouse emulation / bypass feature
- Independent switching of KVM, USB, and Audio
- Multilingual keyboard mapping – supports English, French, Japanese, and German keyboards
- DisplayPort 1.2 compliant; HDCP compliant3
- Supports HD audio4
- Power on detection
- Firmware upgradable
- Note:
- 1. DisplayPort Dual–Mode technology (DP++) does not require an active adapter for most single display setups. Active DisplayPort adapters are recommended if you are unsure of the video source's DP++ compatibility.
- 2. MST (Multi-Stream Transport) requires either monitors that are capable of DisplayPort 1.2 daisy-chaining, or use of a powered DisplayPort MST Hub. A DisplayPort v1.1a display can be the last display in a DisplayPort v1.2 chain. The PC source must be DisplayPort 1.2 compliant
- 3. For DisplayPort 1.4 compliant display device, make sure to configure the device setting to be compatible with DisplayPort 1.2 to avoid compatibility issue
- 4. HD audio through DisplayPort cannot be switched independently
Description
The ATEN CS1944DP desktop KVM switch helps organize your desktop. Especially when managing a multimedia workstation at a large organization, CS1944DP provides you with instant access to two or four computers, all through a single USB keyboard, USB mouse and two DisplayPort monitors.
Advanced video support provides a better-defined DisplayPort connection with video resolutions up to 4K (4096 x 2160 / 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz). Incorporating dual display capability, you are allowed to enjoy a wider screen and easily switch between two or four DisplayPort systems. In addition, featuring a built-in USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub, the CS1944DP delivers unprecedented data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps, allowing you to maximize multimedia operations.
Engineered to meet the ever-increasing demand for dual display, ultra-fast data transmission rates, and lossless 4K video resolution, the CS1944DP is specifically designed for where multitasking is needed such as design, financial trading, and video post production.
Note:
As is common with DisplayPort KVM switches, switching between KVM ports in an Extended Desktop setup may cause windows open on the extended desktop to be resized/repositioned back to a default configuration on the main display. This is due to the nature of the DisplayPort protocol and may require a manual readjustment.
