8k output to 3 monitors (can be TV via dp to hdmi cables) can take hdmi to dp input.
8k output to 3 monitors (can be TV via dp to hdmi cables) can take hdmi to dp input.Needed a solid performing KVM to manage my 3 monitors as well as sharing a 1. Wacom Tablet/Monitor, and 2. Webcam, and it has an SD card reader, as well as power connection for USB-C; 4 usb connections (a) in front, including the ability to connect to usb based audio output - aka I'm using a X3 SoundBlaster, etc. and it has an easy Speaker/Mic m3.5 jack in front as well, allowing easy sharing of gear. I've had the unit now for over 3 weeks, and it does as advertised - allows 3 channels dp to push 8k video. If you want to have solid 4k performance, 60hz, then this is your tool - I knew it would be trustworthy having used other AV Access gear for over a year. Since I can use HDMI - DP in, as well as DP-HDMI out, it's future proofed and will work with your equipment. Yes, I could use the Nvidia configs through it, as well as Microsoft's multi-display config. The usb-c let's you use it as a port replicator supplying power as well as allowing use of the Ethernet Port in the back of the KVM. In short, it allows you to connect everything you use in common between two PC systems, with 4 usb c ports, and a USB-C for power - I connected a USB-C hub to it, then connected another trackball, and yeap it works. Setup - secrets - setup for 1 PC first. Outbound, Make sure you connect from bottom to top for monitors so they show up in the order you want - Primary, then 2nd, and 3rd. Then connect the 1st PC, and setup monitors on PC as needed, and all the devices are working as desired. After you are happy, then setup 2nd PC. (Trying to setup more than 1 thing at a time ;) might lead to a bit of entirely user generated confusion. ) AV Access makes good stuff, and this unit is a good example of price, features, and ease of use which is why I picked them after many hours of research, and the willingness to try different things, and finding it a great way to physically connect devices (yes, Bluetooth could work for some things, however, sharing a Wacom tablet/HDMI connection makes this the only way) Since storage, etc. any USB device can be shared, you will find a number of things eased. Enjoy!la salida de 8K a 3 monitores (puede ser TV a través de cables dp a hdmi) puede llevar la entrada hdmi a dp.Necesitaba un KVM sólido para administrar mis 3 monitores y compartir un 1. Wacom Tablet/Monitor, y 2. Webcam, y tiene un lector de tarjetas SD, así como conexión de alimentación para USB-C; 4 conexiones usb (a) en la parte delantera, incluida la capacidad de conectarse a la salida de audio basada en usb, también conocido como X3 SoundBlaster, etc., y también tiene un conector Speaker/Mic m3.5 en la parte delantera, lo que permite compartir fácilmente el equipo. He tenido la unidad ahora durante más de 3 semanas, y lo hace como se anuncia: permite que 3 canales dp impulsen el video 8k. Si desea tener un rendimiento sólido de 4k, 60hz, entonces esta es su herramienta: sabía que sería confiable haber usado otro equipo AV Access durante más de un año. Como puedo usar HDMI - DP in, así como DP-HDMI out, está probado en el futuro y funcionará con su equipo. Sí, podría usar las configuraciones de Nvidia a través de él, así como la configuración de pantalla múltiple de Microsoft. El usb-c le permite usarlo como un replicador de puertos que suministra energía y permite el uso del puerto Ethernet en la parte posterior del KVM. En resumen, le permite conectar todo lo que usa en común entre dos sistemas de PC, con 4 puertos usb c y un USB-C para alimentación: le conecté un concentrador USB-C, luego conecté otro trackball y yeap funciona. Configuración - secretos - configuración para 1 PC primero. Saliente, asegúrese de conectarse de abajo hacia arriba para los monitores para que aparezcan en el orden que desee: primario, luego 2o y 3o. Luego conecte la 1a PC y configure los monitores en la PC según sea necesario, y todos los dispositivos funcionarán según lo desee. Después de que esté contento, configure 2nd PC. (Tratar de configurar más de 1 cosa a la vez ;) podría conducir a un poco de confusión generada por el usuario. ) AV Access hace cosas buenas, y esta unidad es un buen ejemplo de precio, características y facilidad de uso, por lo que los elegí después de muchas horas de investigación, y la voluntad de probar cosas diferentes, y encontrar una excelente manera de conectar físicamente dispositivos (sí, Bluetooth podría funcionar para algunas cosas, sin embargo, compartir una tableta/WacomLa conexión HDMI hace que esta sea la única forma) Dado que el almacenamiento, etc., cualquier dispositivo USB se puede compartir, encontrará una serie de cosas facilitadas. ¡Disfruta!8k输出到3个监视器(可以通过dp到hdmi电缆进行电视)可以将hdmi转换为dp输入。需要一个性能可靠的KVM来管理我的3台显示器以及共享1台显示器。Wacom平板电脑/显示器,以及2。网络摄像头,它具有SD卡读取器以及USB-C的电源连接;前面有4个USB连接(a),包括连接到基于USB的音频输出的功能-又名,我正在使用X3 SoundBlaster等,并且前面还有一个简单的Speaker / Mic m3。5插孔,可以轻松共享齿轮。我已经拥有该单元超过3周了,并且按照广告宣传的那样-允许3个频道的dp推送8k视频。如果您想获得60hz的4k稳定性能,那么这就是您的工具-我知道使用其他AV Access设备超过一年是值得信赖的。由于我可以使用HDMI-DP和DP-HDMI,因此将来会证明它,并且可以与您的设备一起使用。是的,我可以通过它使用Nvidia配置以及Microsoft的多显示器配置。USB-C允许您将其用作供电的端口复制器,并允许在KVM背面使用以太网端口。简而言之,它使您可以连接两个具有4个USB c端口的PC系统和一个用于电源的USB-C之间的所有常用设备-我将USB-C集线器连接到该集线器,然后连接另一个轨迹球,然后它工作。 设置-秘密-首先为1台PC设置。出站,请确保从下到上连接监视器,以便它们按照所需的顺序显示-主,然后是第二个和第三个。然后连接第一台PC,并根据需要在PC上设置监视器,并且所有设备都可以根据需要工作。高兴之后,请设置第二台PC。(尝试一次设置多个内容;)可能会导致一些完全由用户生成的混乱。)AV Access是很好的东西,该设备是价格,功能和易用性的一个很好的例子,这就是为什么我经过数小时的研究并愿意尝试不同的事情并找到很好的方法后才选择它们的原因物理连接设备(是的,蓝牙在某些方面可以工作,但是共享Wacom平板电脑/HDMI连接使这成为唯一的方法)由于可以共享任何USB设备等,因此您会发现许多轻松的事情。请享用!

Great dock, and an upgrade from the 8K KVM
I purchased this dock as an upgrade from my AV Access 8K DisplayPort KVM Switch. The old KVM switch is great but LAN and USB-C ports seemed like good things to have. I had the networking running through a USB adapter before. The shared networking on this dock is a big improvement because it seems to stay on even if you're switched to the other computer. So you can access both computers from your local network regardless of which device you've got the KVM switched to.I'm running my Windows gaming PC through this and everything works as expected - HDR, G-Sync, and the full refresh rate of my monitor (240 Hz). I also have a MacBook Pro plugged in using an OWC dual DisplayPort adapter and that's working great to have two extended monitors. The Mac also sees the monitors as HDR and VRR.If you need a KVM switch with DisplayPort for gaming (G-Sync doesn't work over HDMI), this is a solid choice. I've had docks / KVM switches from Anker and OWC before and AV Access does a good job of providing solid hardware for a reasonable price with no additional drivers or software needed.

Not for hot switch. Fine to use it for sharing monitor/keyboard/mouse on reboot
I have two laptops (HP and Lenovo) and one desktop (Linux). I use a Viewsonic 32" monitor as external monitor. I don't have space for extra monitors. So I purchased this KVM switch, which I have been using for three and half months. It does not support hot switch for me. This means, when both a laptop and a desktop are plugged in and turned on, if I press the switch button, this monitor will "switch" but is often flickering, sometimes just blank. Occasionally, it works as expected.Switching from a laptop to desktop works, almost always. But most times hot switch from desktop to laptop does not work, with various possible behaviors: flickering screen is most often. sometimes the screen size is not correct (smaller with black filled the rest region of the monitor), sometimes just a white noise screen, sometimes a frozen picture. And sometimes the ethernet does not work after the switch.The worst inconvenience is some weird problem occasionally (average once a day), even though when I did not switch. I was using only my HP laptop with double screens (one external monitor connected through the switch, and the laptop's native screen). The external monitor suddenly went blank with all GUI moved to the laptop native monitor, with an alarming sound. Then after three seconds, everything went back to the way it should be. Initially I thought it was due to some other reasons. Now I am confirmed that this switch is the culprit since I only see this when I use this switch -- I have three docking stations and never experienced such a problem when connect external monitor using a docking station.However, if you don't do hot switch, it work fine (except as described above -- the sudden blank screen for a few seconds before things resume to normal) This mean, if I want to "switch" from desk top to laptop, I need to power off the desktop first. Press the switch button. Then power on the laptop. It is not convenient. But it solves my issue on limited space.I don't see its competitors. So the price is high (comparing with many cheap docking stations, yet with fairly good quality, available at Amazon). But I did not have another option if I want to have laptop (USB type C connector) and a desktop (HDMI or DP). Hope some switch manufacturers see my review and enter into this market :)--------------------------- Added comments after the above initial review -----------I purchased the switch in April 2024. I wrote the initial review after several months of use. I got a message from the manufacturer who would like to understand more. I provided the debug info on my two laptops and one PC. Later I got a newer version of the switch with comments from the manufacturer that the newer version might fix my problems. Now I have used the new version for a couple of months and would like to provide some updates. I initially gave 3 stars. Now I would upgrade to 4 stars.Many weird issues are indeed gone. However, "hot" switch can be still a problem. I have used the switch for 2 PCs (one Windows 10 and one Linux) and 2 laptops (both Windows 11). I saw "grey" screens occasionally. I also saw unresponsive screens (both PC side and laptop side). It happens maybe 20% percent of time. Furthermore, the newer version of the switch is less "damaging". I had to power off both PC and laptop sometimes using the old switch since neither was responsive. But for the newer version, I experienced much less (still I had to power off to solve the "freeze" issue very occasionally).Here are some lessons I learned:1. Keep the laptop open. This may make the chance of failed switch less frequent. Earlier I usually closed the laptop since my laptop screen is small and I would just use the external monitor. But now I realized this might make the switch not functioning well.2. On the laptop, configure the display to see the laptop monitor as the "primary screen". This seems to improve the chance of switch functioning.Since the problems happen at random, I cannot say the above conclusion are the result of "scientific" tests. They are just my impression after months of use.In summary, if you use the switch as a "cold" switch, this product works perfect. But for "hot" switch, it is not that stable, but usable. I once talked with someone who knows this area and learned that with so many kinds of PCs and laptops, making a switch work is a hard business. I think I should give at least 4 stars to be fair.
