Description

StarTech SV231DVIUA DVI USB KVM Switch

Overview

The StarTech SV231DVIUA is a 2-port KVM switch designed to consolidate control of two multimedia computers onto a single DVI display, USB keyboard, USB mouse, and speaker set. This unit is ideal for IT environments where multiple workstations need to be managed from a single console, such as server rooms, testing labs, or multimedia editing stations. The SV231DVIUA supports digital DVI video up to 1920x1200 and simplifies workflow by eliminating the need for separate peripherals for each machine. Its compact form factor and straightforward operation make it a practical choice for consolidating your command center. The model number SV231DVIUA is clearly marked for easy identification.

Compatibility

This KVM switch supports any multimedia computer with DVI video output and USB keyboard/mouse connectivity. It is OS independent, meaning it functions seamlessly with Windows, macOS, Linux, and other operating systems without requiring driver installation. The USB 2.0 ports on the switch allow for the connection of standard keyboards and mice, and also support the passthrough of USB devices for speaker connectivity.

Installation Notes

Connect the DVI video, USB keyboard, USB mouse, and speaker cables from each of the two computers to the corresponding rear-panel ports on the SV231DVIUA. Then, connect your single DVI monitor, USB keyboard, USB mouse, and speakers to the front-panel ports. Power is supplied via the included 12V DC, 1.5A AC adapter, drawing a maximum of 18 Watts. Port selection between the two computers is managed via front-panel push buttons or hotkey commands.
