IOGEAR GCS1642X 2-Port DualView Dual-Link Black DVI KVM Switch with Audio. MSRP when this item was new was $269.95. Feel free to make an offer. No reasonable offer will be refused.
No power supply is included, and no cables are included.
This was pulled from a system, and is likely working just fine, but because I don’t have the proper power supply to test it, it has not been tested, and consequently no guarantees are being offered, and it is being listed as “For Parts” and has been priced accordingly.
Overview:
2-Port Dual Monitor DVI KVMP Switch With USB2.0 Hub and Audio
IOGEAR's GCS1642X 2-Port DualView DVI KVMP Switch marks a leap in KVM functionality by combining IOGEAR's DynaSync™ with the widescreen graphics resolution of today's 30+ inch monitors, supporting dual monitors, Dual-Link resolutions up to 2560 x 1600 (higher than 1080p HD) and 3D graphics. Control two DVI display computers from a single console running dual-displays.
This unique KVMP increases efficiency and saves equipment costs for applications where high resolutions, 3D graphics, and large or widescreen dual-display monitors are required. It is perfect for applications such as:
CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing)
Desktop Publishing, Graphic Design, and Video Editing
Medical, Surgical, and Diagnostic Displays
High-End Gaming
Quad Monitor Display
Connect two GCS1642X in DCC Mode to have a Quad View console that consists of a keyboard, mouse, and four monitors displayed.
Convenient Switching Methods
Switch and access four DisplayPort computers from a simple push-button on the front panel or hotkey keyboard combination. IOGEAR's 2-Port Dual-Link DVI Dual Monitor KVM Switch also offers the latest mouse port-switching functionality to change ports. Quickly switch between connected computers by clicking the wheel button on your 3-button USB mouse.
Share USB 2.0 Devices
The GCS1642X also features two USB 2.0 peripheral ports for asynchronously sharing USB devices between your computers. A powered USB hub may be attached to the peripheral ports for added functionality. Audio and microphone support makes sharing speakers and a microphone a convenience for the users which serves as an extra value.
EDID Support
The IOGEAR's DynaSync™ remembers your monitor's ideal resolution and refresh rate (EDID), making it possible to boot all your computers simultaneously, switch back and forth between computers, and still maintain the ideal video settings of the monitor.
