The DP output port of the switch supports MST (Multi-Stream Transport), which means two or
more DisplayPort monitors can be daisy-chained, provided:
1. that the monitor connected to the KEEMUX supports MST
2. any other monitors in the chain support MST(except the last one)
3. each connected monitor has an extra DP output port for daisy-chaining (except the last
one)
4. and each connected monitor supports DP 1.2 (except the last monitor requires only
DP 1.0 or 1.1)
The EDID of all monitors will be recognized. The user can extend the desktop across multiple
screens.
Note: When switching between computers, the screen layout will not be as you left it – all
open windows will be pushed to the top left corner of the display.
More than two monitors can be daisy-chained as shown in the chart below.
