Two PCs, two displays, four USB devices, and a cable mess that makes your desk look like a server room. The Simplecom KM490 tidies it up. HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 inputs from each PC feed one HDMI and one DP output to your monitors — extended or mirrored, up to 8K@60Hz. Four USB 3.0 ports at 5 Gbps handle your peripherals and switch with the display in one press. Toggle with the front button or the included remote. For 8K and high-refresh rates you'll want the included USB-C power adapter plugged in; for 4K@60Hz and below, just run it off your PC's USB port. Aluminium casing, LED status lights, plug and play across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Chrome OS. Use quality HDMI 2.1 and DP 1.4 cables for 8K stability. In stock, shipping from AU
