The Kramer SX42PHU-4 provides a secure KVM mini-matrix arrangement for 4 computer sources and two console display connections. It consolidates supported video and peripherals at an operator position.
SX42PHU-4 Detailed Features
- Select sources for a two-screen workstation. Connect 4 computer sources and choose which computer appears on each of the two attached displays. This lets an operator keep two selected systems visible within a shared workspace.
- Display detailed 4K content. The supported maximum is 3840 × 2160 at 60Hz. This provides room for detailed computer interfaces and smooth screen updates when the connected sources, displays, and cabling support the selected format.
- Mix HDMI and DisplayPort equipment. Combination video ports support either connector type. This provides flexibility when the workstation includes computers and displays with different digital video connections.
- Move control between displayed computers. Cursor-based switching can move keyboard and mouse control as the operator crosses configured screen boundaries. Configure the layout to match the physical display arrangement before use.
- Switch peripheral functions independently. Front-panel controls support independent selection of video, USB, audio, and keyboard/mouse paths between the primary and secondary computers. This helps retain a needed peripheral connection while changing other parts of the workspace.
- Use presets for different display arrangements. Built-in layouts accommodate supported screen and computer configurations. Select a preset suited to the installation instead of assuming one arrangement fits every workstation.
- Provide controlled USB peripheral access. The U model includes a filtered USB path for supported devices. Peripheral authorization and configuration matter; it should not be treated as an unrestricted general-purpose USB hub.
- Separate connected security domains. The secure mini-matrix design isolates the connected hosts while sharing operator equipment. Use the manufacturer installation and peripheral requirements when deploying the unit in a controlled environment.
