Advanced Quad-Head 4K Workstation Control
The SmartAVI SM-EDPN-4Q is the professional installer’s answer to managing complex, multi-monitor workstations. In many high-end environments—such as financial trading floors, medical imaging suites, or command centers—users require four monitors per computer. The SM-EDPN-4Q allows you to control four such quad-head computers from a single console, drastically reducing desk clutter and streamlining your workflow with a single keyboard and mouse.
What truly sets this unit apart is its EDID (AUX) Emulation. In standard DisplayPort setups, switching away from a computer often causes the OS to "forget" the monitor connection, leading to icons being moved and windows being resized. The SM-EDPN-4Q eliminates this frustration by mimicking a constant monitor connection to all four computers at all times. When you switch back, your layout is exactly as you left it—zero glitching, zero downtime.

Installer FAQ
Q: Does this unit support G-Sync or FreeSync?
