***Notice***
- Adapters Might Be Needed: This KVM Switch requires 1* HDMI and 1* DP input for each computer and 1* HDMI + 1* DP output for monitors. However, most computers especially laptops do not have HDMI+DP output, thus reliable adapters will be needed for non-HDMI DP outputs like mini DP, USB C.
- For laptops, this dual monitor KVM switch supports USB C docking stations, but the resolution refresh rate may be limited by the docking station, and you may need to connect DC 5V to power the KVM (depending on your docking station).
- If your computer has only 2 HDMI output ports, then you need a dedicated HDMI to DisplayPort (DP) converter or cable (with USB power supply), connect the HDMI end to the computer, and the DP end to KVM, the resolution may be affected by the converter , so that it cannot reach 4K@60Hz. Please be aware that most of the DP to HDMI converters/cables on the market do not support bidirectional transmission.
