TRENDnet TK-240DP 2-Port Dual Monitor DisplayPort KVM Switch

Simplify your workstation with the TRENDnet TK-240DP 2-Port Dual Monitor DisplayPort KVM Switch. Designed for users who operate two computers with a dual-monitor setup, this KVM switch allows you to share one keyboard, mouse, and two DisplayPort monitors between connected systems.

Dual-Monitor DisplayPort Connectivity

The TK-240DP supports two DisplayPort 1.2 monitors, allowing users to maintain a dual-screen workstation while switching between two computers. It supports 4K UHD resolutions up to 3840 × 2160 at 60Hz and resolutions up to 2560 × 1440 at 144Hz, making it suitable for high-resolution office, professional, and productivity applications.

Convenient Computer Switching

Switch between connected computers using the front-panel push buttons or keyboard hotkey commands. The integrated True Transparent USB (TTU) emulation technology supports most USB keyboard and mouse designs, providing convenient control without requiring separate input devices for each computer.

Integrated USB 2.0 Hub

Two additional USB 2.0 hub ports allow compatible peripherals, including storage devices and printers, to be shared between connected computers. This helps reduce desktop clutter and simplifies access to common USB accessories.

Integrated Audio Connections

The KVM switch includes 3.5mm speaker and microphone connections for audio switching between connected systems. This makes it useful for workstations that require shared audio peripherals alongside keyboard, mouse, and display control.

Durable Design and Easy Installation

Housed in a rugged metal enclosure, the TK-240DP is designed for everyday workstation use. Its driver-free installation simplifies deployment, while the included external power adapter provides the required power. The separate TK-CP06 cable kits provide the necessary computer connections and must be purchased separately.
