4-Port, Quad-view Ultra-HD 4K DisplayPort-to-HDMI KVM Switch

4-Port, quad-view Ultra-HD 4K DisplayPort-to-HDMI KVM switch 

with full DisplayPort-in / HDMI-out video emulation and USB 2.0 peripheral sharing 

---

SM-D2H-4Q is a KVM switch capable of managing four 4K DisplayPort computers through four HDMI monitors, USB keyboard & mouse, and a set of speakers.

SM-D2H-4Q is designed to overcome the inherent DisplayPort loss of emulated picture when switching from one connected computer to another, leading to a disorganized desktop video upon switching. By sending the video to an HDMI (instead of DisplayPort) monitor, SM-D2H-4Q offers full EDID-assisted HDMI video emulation that ensures visual workspaces and screen resolutions are remembered every time you switch between computers.

SM-D2H-4Q supports 4K resolution of up to 3840×2160 @ 30Hz, with zero pixel loss from TMDS signal correction.

Its USB 2.0 peripheral-sharing functionality allows users at the console to access USB devices like printers, memory devices, scanners, etc. and share their use between connected computers. For example, it allows the use of a flash memory drive or camera without having to plug it directly into the computer.

SM-D2H-4Q is also easy to control with simple front-panel push-buttons or hot-key keyboard combination, as well as RS-232 functionality.

Source switching made easy
SM-D2H-4Q offers simplified management between four DisplayPort equipped computers’ USB 2.0 outputs. Keyboards, mice, and other connected USB devices can be switched between with ease. This dynamic KVM switch can be controlled via hot keys or RS-232 commands, as well as directly through the switch’s easy-to-read front panel.

EDID pass-through and recognition
SM-D2H-4Q features EDID pass-through technology and source recognition, which enables smooth and efficient switching in virtually any scenario. This plug-and-play EDID functionality makes setup hassle free and simple.

Full USB keyboard and mouse emulation
The USB keyboard and mouse emulation utilized by SM-D2H-4Q provides quick source switching via keyboard hot keys. SM-D2H-4Q simulates the presence of a keyboard and mouse for every attached computer through a USB cable. This essential function simulates keyboard, video, and mouse control for all connected computers, so switching between each is kept seamless and completely uninterrupted.

Real-world applications
SM-D2H-4Q has a broad range of applications, but the main function is to centralize the access of up to four computers that support DisplayPort displays in a single workstation. Not only does it function as a KVM switch, but it also supports USB 2.0 functionality. This allows users to access nearby USB device, including those not supported by other KVM switches. SM-D2H-4Q is the ideal solution for medical, industrial, studio and defense applications, where it is not practical or safe to have multiple CPUs in the vicinity of the workstation.

Flexible control
• USB/keyboard: Hot keys enable the user to switch and control all the different functions of the KVM switch.
• RS-232: Any external device or program supporting RS-232 can control the SM-D2H-4Q. SM-D2H-4Q uses a very simple protocol that enables easy integration with other devices.

Independent simultaneous device selection and flexible sharing
Flexibility is key with SM-D2H-4Q. It enables the use of a USB keyboard and mouse of one computer while other USB peripherals such as scanners and printers are connected to other computer sources. SM-D2H-4Q maintains the ability to switch all connected devices to any one of the computer sources as with any other KVM switches.
