Price in Sri Lanka

Four USB 3.0 Ports

The KVM switch provides four shared USB 3.0 ports, including three USB-A ports and one USB-C port. These ports can be used to share peripherals such as a keyboard, mouse, USB flash drive, printer or other compatible USB devices between the two computers. USB 3.0 data transfer speeds can reach up to 5Gbps.

Dual Monitor KVM for Two Computers

With the UGREEN 55851, you can connect two computers to a dual-monitor setup. Both monitors switch between the connected computers at the same time. However, both displays show the selected computer’s video output rather than displaying PC1 and PC2 simultaneously.

The switch works with computers that provide two DisplayPort signals and one USB-A connection. Therefore, it suits compatible desktop and laptop configurations. If your computer uses HDMI or USB-C video output instead, you may need a suitable DisplayPort converter or docking solution.

8K@60Hz DisplayPort 1.4 Support

The UGREEN 55851 supports DisplayPort 1.4 and delivers video output up to 8K@60Hz. In addition, it supports high-refresh-rate resolutions such as 4K@120Hz and 4K@240Hz when your computers, monitors and cables support the required specifications. Furthermore, HDR support helps compatible displays produce richer colours and detailed images.

For the best results, use compatible DisplayPort cables. Also, make sure both computers and monitors support your preferred resolution and refresh rate.

Four USB 3.0 Ports
