Digitus Διακόπτης KVM HDMI 8 Port USB 4K Ultra HD

The Digitus 8 Port HDMI KVM Switch (DS-12910) is a rack-mountable console that lets you control up to eight HDMI computers using a single USB keyboard and mouse. It supports a maximum resolution of 4K @30Hz (requires compatible 4K cables) and offers BIOS-level access to connected servers without the need to install software or drivers on the host systems. The unit is compatible with common operating systems and uses a metal housing for durability.

Advantages

The KVM provides flexible switching via front-panel buttons, keyboard hotkeys and an on-screen display (OSD). It supports widescreen resolutions and DDC communication for broad graphics card compatibility. Keep-Alive (Keep Online) technology on the server ports emulates keyboard and mouse presence to prevent input loss during switching. Auto-scan mode allows continuous monitoring of all connected systems.

Suitable for

• Server rooms and rack-mounted workplaces where multiple HDMI systems must be controlled from one console
• IT maintenance, configuration and BIOS-level access without installing client software
• Environments requiring 4K @30Hz display capability for monitoring or administration
• Mixed OS setups including Windows, Linux and macOS (and other supported systems)

How to use

Install the KVM in a rack or place on a stable surface and connect each computer's HDMI and USB console cables to the corresponding KVM input ports. Connect your USB Type-A keyboard and mouse to the front or designated console ports. Use the front-panel buttons, keyboard hotkeys or the OSD menu to switch control between connected computers. Ensure you use 4K-capable HDMI cables if you require 4K @30Hz output. No drivers or software installation are required on the server systems for basic operation.

Recommendations

For reliable 4K performance, use certified high-speed HDMI cables and verify that connected graphics cards and monitors support 3840 x 2160 at 30Hz. When performing BIOS-level tasks, confirm that Keep-Alive emulation meets your server requirements and test switching procedures beforehand to avoid unintended interruptions.
