Come and enhance your workflow and gaming setup with TESmart’s new triple 4K@60Hz hybrid KVM gaming dock HDC203-P24 for 1 desktop PC & 1 Laptop. It offers triple 4K@60Hz for displays and is an 11-in-1 docking station, perfect for laptops and desktops. It even provides 60W power for the laptop. With HDMI+DP ports for the desktop and USB-C port for the laptop, and a shared 1000 Mbps LAN port, it can reduce cable clutter to a great extent for more efficient work.

Video and Display Features

The 2x3 HDMI KVM Switch dock supports resolutions up to 3840x2160@60Hz 4:4:4, featuring HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliance, making it ideal for precise video editing and professional image processing. For gaming, it enhances visuals with advanced EDID emulation technology to ensure stable, tear-free, and ghost-free performance. It is compatible with both Nvidia and AMD graphics cards, allowing for direct connection without the need for adapters. The device handles resolutions up to 4K@60Hz/3840x2160@60Hz 4:4:4 and is backward compatible with 2K@60Hz/120Hz. It supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) and MST (Multi-Stream Transport) technology, which allows for a maximum of two 4K60Hz 4:4:4 displays and one 4K@30Hz 4:4:4 display, though this is limited by bandwidth.

Connectivity and Management

Included with the KVM switch are 1 USB-C Cable, 1 KVM Cable, and 2 DP Cables for connecting to computers. The dock efficiently manages two PCs—one desktop and one laptop—using a single keyboard, mouse, and triple 4K60Hz displays. It supports a Gigabit wired network connection, enabling both connected computers to access the network with just one network cable.

Input Switching and Control

The device provides four methods for switching inputs: keyboard hotkeys, mouse wheel, front panel button, or IR signals, ensuring seamless keyboard and mouse operation after switching. It offers two modes for desktop display—extend or split—allowing for adaptable display configurations.

Additional Features

With EDID emulators in each input port, the KVM switch ensures that connected PCs always receive accurate display information. It supports pass-through and legacy emulation mode for broad keyboard compatibility, including wired, wireless, mechanical, and gaming keyboards. The dock also features USB 3.2 Gen 1 for high-speed data transfer and shares USB 3.0 and audio peripherals, including an integrated microphone and L/R audio output port.

Ease of Use and Compatibility

An LCD visual display is included for straightforward setup. The device supports hot plugging, meaning you can disconnect or connect devices without turning off the PC. It is compatible with various operating systems such as Unix, Windows, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, MacOS X, Raspbian, and other Linux-based systems, making it suitable for diverse scenarios, including home, office, and educational settings.
