IOGEAR 4-Port Dual View DisplayPort Secure KVM Switch w/Audio

Protect and manage multiple data-sensitive systems from a single workstation with the IOGEAR 4-Port Dual View DisplayPort Secure KVM Switch with Audio. Designed for security-conscious environments, this KVM switch combines dual-display capability, robust protection features, and convenient control to deliver a seamless, high-performance solution for administrators, IT professionals, and operators who must isolate sensitive data while maintaining efficient workflow. With Protection Profile v4.0 and TAA compliance, it offers a trusted guardrail against internal and external cybersecurity threats while enabling you to monitor, switch, and control four separate hosts from one secure console.

• Security-first architecture: Built to protect data-sensitive systems, the Ultra-secure KVM supports Protection Profile v4.0 and is designed to reduce the risk of data leakage or cross-contamination between connected hosts. It’s a key choice for regulated environments such as government, finance, healthcare, and enterprise IT where secure access control and auditable operations matter most. The unit’s design emphasizes isolation between hosts, controlled access, and robust management to help organizations meet strict compliance requirements while maintaining efficient operations.
• 4-Port Dual View DisplayPort with Audio: Connect up to four computers and enjoy dual-view DisplayPort capabilities, delivering multiple video streams to two monitors per workstation while preserving crisp image quality and reliable audio. The arrangement supports high-resolution video, with integrated audio pass-through so users can work with both video and sound without swapping cables or compromising security. This configuration suits multi-monitor workflows, diagnostic labs, and development environments where side-by-side comparison or simultaneous monitoring of several systems is essential.
• Flexible control and ease of use: Switch between connected hosts via intuitive front-panel push-buttons, keyboard hotkeys, or a secure, centralized management workflow. The dual-view design simplifies cross-system tasks, enabling operators to observe and interact with multiple hosts from a single console without compromising containment. Clear status indicators and a streamlined cabling approach help reduce clutter and improve reliability in busy security operations centers or data-center workstations.
• Broad compatibility and reliable performance: The KVM switch supports common DisplayPort configurations and is designed to work with a wide range of systems and peripherals, including Windows, macOS, and Linux environments. It enables seamless keyboard and mouse control, video, and audio across connected hosts, helping IT teams consolidate desk space and reduce hardware footprint while maintaining consistent performance across devices and platforms.
• Durable design for demanding environments: Engineered for heavy-use scenarios, this secure KVM provides a rugged, dependable console that reduces cable clutter and enhances workspace organization. Its security-oriented architecture makes it an ideal fit for labs, government offices, financial institutions, and any setting that prioritizes data protection, auditability, and long-term reliability in daily operations.

How to install IOGEAR 4-Port Dual View DisplayPort Secure KVM Switch with Audio

Follow these steps to set up the secure KVM with dual-view DisplayPort and audio support:

• Unbox the KVM switch and verify all components are present: the console unit, DisplayPort cables, USB connections for keyboard and mouse, audio cables, and power supply if required.
• Power down all connected computers before wiring to prevent any startup transients from affecting the setup.
• Connect each computer’s DisplayPort output to the corresponding DP input on the KVM switch. If using dual-view, route the appropriate DP outputs to the two monitor inputs you intend to use for each workstation.
• Connect your keyboard and mouse to the KVM’s console USB ports (or as specified in the user manual), and attach any audio devices (headphones or speakers) to the KVM’s audio jacks if you plan to use audio pass-through.
• Use DisplayPort cables to connect the KVM’s DP outputs to your monitors. Ensure the monitors are configured for the correct input source corresponding to the KVM’s two video channels.
• Power on the monitors, then the KVM switch, and finally the connected computers. Use the front-panel buttons or keyboard hotkeys to switch between hosts as needed. Confirm video and audio are working on each connected system.
• Configure any required security settings, logging options, and access control policies within your organization’s security framework. Keep firmware updated to maintain the highest security posture.
