One keyboard and monitor for two computers
Connect two DisplayPort computers and switch between them using the front-panel button, mouse or hotkeys. This keeps both systems accessible without needing a separate keyboard and mouse for each one.
The CS1912 also supports independent switching. You can focus KVM control on one computer while USB peripherals are connected to the other. This is useful when you need to work across systems and share devices such as a printer.

The built-in USB hub supports USB 3.2 Gen 1, with transfer rates up to 5 Gbps. This gives you a convenient way to share USB devices between the connected computers.
The switch also supports audio connections. It can share audio from either computer, including HD audio transmitted over DisplayPort, and has four headphone outputs.
