2 Port Quad Monitor Dual-Link DVI USB KVM Switch with Audio & Hub
StarTech ID: SV231QDVIUA
The SV231QDVIUA 2-Port Quad Monitor Dual-Link DVI USB KVM Switch allows 2 PCs, each with 4 DVI video
outputs, to share monitors, 1 microphone and set of speakers, 1 keyboard and 1 mouse as well as an additional
USB 2.0 peripheral such as an external hard drive, thumb drive, printer, or webcam.
The Quad DVI KVM switch allows you to switch back and forth between 2 multi DVI PCs at the touch of a
button, while maintaining professional-level video quality on all monitors at resolutions up to 2560x1600. The
quad DVI switch also features an integrated USB hub port that allows USB 2.0 peripherals to be shared
between attached systems - eliminating duplicate peripheral costs, and offering the convenience of sharing
stored data between PCs.
Backed by a StarTech.com 3-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
PLEASE NOTE: While both DVI-I (analog mode) and DVI-D (digital only) are supported by the KVM, both
source PCs must output the same signal type for proper switching. It is recommended wherever possible to use
DVI-D cables across all PC to KVM and KVM to Console connections. Please contact technical support for
assistance identifying your source.
