Introduction

Overview

The CS1942DP / CS1944DP 2/4-Port USB 3.0 4K DisplayPort Dual Display
KVMP™ Switch takes a giant leap forward in KVM switch functionality by
combining a Dual Display KVM switch with a DisplayPort video interface,
2-port USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub and 2.1 channel audio support for rich bass in
surround sound. DisplayPort technology provides a 4K UHD @ 60 Hz and 4K
DCI @ 60Hz resolution that displays the most vivid high-definition images
available while pumping out premium sound for music, movies, and games.

The CS1942DP / CS1944DP allows users to access two or four DisplayPort
computers from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse and two DisplayPort
monitors. In addition to the front panel pushbuttons, Hotkeys, and the mouse
port-switching functionality, the CS1942DP / CS1944DP offers serial
commands to help switch ports and configure device settings. A Power On
Detection feature also ensures that if one computer is powered off, the
CS1942DP / CS1944DP will automatically switch ports to the next powered-
on computer.

With a built-in USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub, the CS1942DP / CS1944DP provides
SuperSpeed 5 Gbps transfer rates to all connected USB peripherals. The unit’s
independent (asynchronous) switching feature, allows the KVM focus to be on
one computer while the USB peripheral focus is on another computer. This
eliminates the need to purchase a separate USB hub or stand-alone peripheral
sharer – such as a print server, modem splitter, etc.

Featuring an unbeatable combination of ultra high 4K resolutions, a next
generation USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub and enhanced, user-friendly operations, the
CS1942DP / CS1944DP delivers the latest innovations in desktop KVM
switching technology.
