StarTech.com 2-Port Dual-Monitor DisplayPort KVM Switch 4K

Brand:

The StarTech.com C2-DD46-UA2-CBL-KVM is a compact 2-port dual-monitor DisplayPort KVM switch that lets users control two DisplayPort/USB-A computers from one keyboard, mouse, dual DisplayPort monitors and audio setup. It supports dual 4K 60Hz displays, integrated 1.5 m host cables, USB 2.0 peripherals, hotkey or remote push-button switching, and bus-powered operation. Its compact cable-integrated design helps IT teams standardize multi-PC workstations while reducing desk-level cable and peripheral duplication.

OVERVIEW

  • The C2-DD46-UA2-CBL-KVM is a 2-port dual-monitor DisplayPort KVM for switching two DisplayPort/USB-A computers through one keyboard, mouse, audio setup and two 4K 60Hz monitors. Compatibility: DisplayPort + USB-A computers; Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS can be used without requiring KVM software. Model comparison: Unlike single-display KVMs, this model maintains a dual-monitor workstation across two hosts.

USE CASES

  • Dual-PC professional workstations: Share two monitors, keyboard, mouse and audio between two computers without duplicating the complete peripheral setup.
  • CAD/CAM environments: Maintains a dual-display workspace while allowing users to switch between two compatible workstations.
  • Video editing stations: Supports dual 4K 60Hz DisplayPort displays for workflows requiring multiple application windows.
  • Content-creation workstations: Centralizes display and USB peripherals for users operating more than one compatible computer.
  • IT support desks: Allows technicians to maintain separate computers while using one monitor and peripheral environment.
  • Development workstations: Switches between two systems while preserving a multi-display desktop configuration.
  • Home-office and hybrid workstations: Provides a practical way to share peripherals between work and personal computers.
  • Trading and monitoring desks: Supports dual-monitor layouts where users need access to two separate computers.
  • Testing and QA environments: Makes it easier to alternate between test systems using one shared peripheral set.
  • Multi-system administration: Provides physical host selection without requiring separate keyboard, mouse and display arrangements for each computer.

KEY FEATURES

  • 2-port dual-computer KVM: Lets one workstation control two compatible computers, reducing duplicated displays and peripherals.
  • Dual 4K 60Hz DisplayPort support: Maintains two high-resolution displays when both host systems provide the required DisplayPort outputs. 
  • DisplayPort 1.2 video: Provides the specified DisplayPort interface for supported high-resolution workstation displays.
  • USB 2.0 peripheral hub: Provides two USB-A console ports for sharing a keyboard and mouse between the selected computers.
  • Integrated audio switching: Shares stereo audio peripherals between the connected hosts, helping consolidate workstation accessories.
  • Remote push-button switching: Places host selection away from the KVM body, useful when the switch is positioned under or behind a desk.
  • Hotkey switching: Enables rapid computer selection from the keyboard without physically reaching the KVM.
  • Software-assisted audio selection: Allows audio-source control independently through supported software workflows.
  • Integrated host cables: Reduces procurement and installation complexity by supplying the required host-side USB-A, DisplayPort and audio connections. 
  • 1.5 m host cable length: Provides additional reach for desktop installations while helping reduce connector strain.
  • Bus-powered design: Eliminates the need for a separate external power adapter, simplifying workstation deployment.
  • Compact ABS enclosure: Occupies approximately 3.7 × 3.1 × 0.9 inches, making it suitable for space-constrained desks.
  • Broad OS compatibility: Supports Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS; the KVM can operate without software. 
  • USB Event Monitoring: StarTech's connectivity tools can log USB device connections with timestamps, supporting IT troubleshooting and peripheral auditing.
