IOGEAR 2 Port DVI KVMP Switch with Cables, USB Console GCS1102

Just when you thought KVM switch functionality couldn't get any better, the IOGEAR DVI KVMP Switch GCS1102 steps in, charting a revolutionary new direction. This compact yet durable device is designed to provide an interface for today's digital monitors, while simultaneously integrating a 2-port USB KVM switch with USB 2.0 peripheral sharing capabilities. As a high-quality KVM switch, this efficient unit allows users to access two computers from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse, and monitor. But it doesn't stop there. It also enables sharing of USB 2.0 peripherals such as external hard drives, printers, and scanners among the connected computers. One of the standout features of the GCS1102 is its independent (asynchronous) switching. This user-friendly feature allows the KVM focus to be on one computer while the USB peripheral focus is on another. This means you can switch from one computer to another without interrupting print jobs, downloads, or other functions being handled by connected peripherals. With the GCS1102, there's no need to purchase a separate USB hub or stand-alone peripheral sharers like printer servers or modem splitters. It's a versatile solution that saves you both money and desk space. The GCS1102 goes a step further by incorporating DVI (Digital Video Interface) connectors, ensuring the transfer of keyboard and mouse data to the computers via a fast, reliable USB connection. DVI supports both digital input (for devices like flat panel displays, data projectors, plasma displays, digital TVs, and set-top boxes) and analog video input (for traditional monitors and TVs). Thanks to IOGEAR's Display Emulation Technology, the GCS1102 reads and remembers the monitor's parameters (EDID), ensuring there's no delay or change of video resolution when switching between or booting computers. This 2-port DVI KVMP switch with cables is not just a device, it's a game-changer in the world of digital connectivity.
