Description

Black Box KV9612A DVI-D KVM Switch with Emulated USB

Overview

The Black Box KV9612A is a desktop KVM switch designed to consolidate control of multiple DVI-D equipped computers into a single workstation. It simplifies operations by allowing you to switch between connected PCs using a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse. This unit is ideal for environments where space is limited and efficient workflow is critical, such as control rooms or IT support desks. The KV9612A model specifically supports DVI-D video and emulated USB for keyboard and mouse input, ensuring broad compatibility with most standard peripherals.

Compatibility

This KVM switch is compatible with any computer featuring a DVI-D video output and USB ports for keyboard and mouse. It supports emulated USB, meaning it presents a standard USB HID (Human Interface Device) profile to each connected computer, allowing hot-plugging and hot-key switching without requiring specific drivers on the host systems. It is designed for use with standard USB keyboards and mice.

Installation Notes

Connect your DVI-D monitor to the switch's output port. Then, connect your DVI-D video cables from each computer's graphics card to the corresponding DVI-D input ports on the switch. Plug your USB keyboard and mouse into the designated USB ports on the switch. Finally, connect the included USB cable from the switch's USB host port to your primary computer for power and emulated USB communication. Ensure all connections are secure before powering on the connected computers.
