The SV231DPDDUA from StarTech.com is engineered for professionals who demand seamless control over two independent computer systems without sacrificing display quality or desk space. This 2-Port USB Dual DisplayPort KVM Switch with Audio and USB 2.0 Hub merges next‑generation DisplayPort technology with reliable KVM switching, enabling you to drive two dual‑head DisplayPort setups or systems with a single DisplayPort output—while sharing a single keyboard, mouse, microphone, speakers, and USB peripherals across both machines. Ideal for design studios, engineering labs, trading desks, and IT workstations, this device helps you streamline workflows, reduce cable clutter, and stay productive across multiple platforms. Expect crisp imagery, responsive control, and flexible configuration capabilities that adapt to your evolving workstation needs, all with plug‑and‑play simplicity that minimizes downtime and IT overhead.

  • Dual‑display versatility with effortless switching: Switch between two host computers while driving two DisplayPort displays per system, enabling expansive desktops, precise multi‑monitor workflows, and increased productivity across design, data analysis, and development tasks. The SV231DPDDUA supports twin DisplayPort outputs per computer, helping you compare content, monitor multiple data streams, and run complex visualizations side by side with minimal lag.
  • Built‑in USB 2.0 hub for streamlined peripherals: The integrated USB 2.0 hub allows you to share keyboards, mice, USB drives, printers, and other USB devices between both computers without reconnecting cables, reducing clutter and saving time during collaborative sessions, testing, or debugging tasks.
  • Integrated audio routing for immersive workflows: Manage system audio with dedicated 3.5 mm connections, enabling you to route audio from either PC to speakers or headphones. This is perfect for media editing, conferencing, or troubleshooting where audio context matters, all without swapping cables.
  • Flexible and intuitive switching options: Access quick, reliable control via front‑panel push‑buttons, or leverage keyboard hotkeys for seamless transitions between hosts. LED indicators show which computer is active at a glance, keeping you oriented during fast-paced tasks or complex demonstrations.
  • Cross‑platform compatibility and easy setup: Designed for plug‑and‑play use across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments. No software installation is required—simply connect DisplayPort, USB, and audio cables, power the unit if needed, and you’re ready to work. Perfect for mixed‑OS offices, shared workstations, and IT labs where compatibility matters as much as performance.

How to install StarTech.com 2 Port Dual DisplayPort USB KVM Switch with Audio

  • Position the KVM switch on your desk or in a suitable rack space within easy reach of both host computers and the displays you plan to share.
  • Connect the two host computers to the SV231DPDDUA using DisplayPort cables: attach each computer’s DisplayPort outputs to the corresponding DisplayPort input ports on the switch.
  • Connect your two DisplayPort monitors to the switch’s DisplayPort outputs, ensuring each monitor is connected to the correct output so you can drive a dual‑monitor workspace from either host.
  • Attach your keyboard and mouse to the USB 2.0 hub ports on the KVM, and connect any additional USB devices (e.g., a USB drive or printer) you want to share across both computers.
  • For audio, connect the 3.5 mm audio cables from each host to the switch’s audio input/output jacks as directed in the user manual, and route the desired audio to speakers or headsets.
  • If your setup requires it, connect the KVM’s power supply (if provided by your model) and power on both host computers. The LED indicators on the front panel will confirm which computer is active.
  • Use the front‑panel push buttons to switch between hosts, or enable keyboard hot‑key switching if supported by your configuration. Verify video, USB peripherals, and audio are functioning on the selected host.
  • Test a few workflow scenarios to confirm that you can drag windows across displays, access shared devices, and hear or mute audio as needed. If issues arise, consult the quick start guide or StarTech’s support resources for troubleshooting steps.

The VERY BEST frother!
This will be the only frother I will buy for the rest of my life! It has amazing power, 2 speed settings, a double whisk, and a case to protect the whisk!!! Thos are so many features that by far shouldve made this frother so much more expensive. I use this everyday for 2 things; to make cold foam for my coffee and I love making shaken espressos at home but the noise of shaking the coffee and ice wake up my small children which is absolutely unforgivable so I use this frother instead and its amazing. If all the things previously mentioned werent enough let this next part convince you; my frother wasnt working properly a few morning ago, it was a little less powerful than usual and so I send a message to the seller and they sent me a new one no questions asked!!!! OMG i had never had such a pleasant experience like that, i was shocked they have raised the bar for me for what I should expect customer service to be. I received my new one superfast only took 2 days I was amazed !!! The only frother I will ever continue to buy !!!!!

Great product even if it dies in a little over a year.
I bought this in May 2023 and it's July 2024. I went on a trip for 6 days and when I came back, it wouldn't turn on. It could possibly be because I've used it every day and suddenly stopped. Either way, I'm disappointed in the longevity of this product. For the price I expected more, but nothing is made to last any more. That being said, I love the design and rechargeable aspect. The cap is awesome for storage and clean up is super easy. This little machine packs a punch as long as you have enough liquid. I've never had issues with lumps or performance in general. I will purchase this product again to see if it was just a fluke.

Bigger/sturdier than expected = good and bad. Recharging cable is USB to USB-C. Need old style brick
I like the design in that it comes with a cover that shields the wand in my utensil drawer but its a bit bigger than expected. So its a plus that its sturdier but a minus that it takes up more space. The USB-C cable is USB to USB-C and not USB-C to USB-C so I had to go fishing for an old brick. Am hoping it doesn't need to charge often. The indicator shows its plugged in but not whether charged.

Ok
Got three years out of it. Better than some others. Docked two stars for lifespan. Docked another star for the paint finish which is not durable and marks easily. Should be more like $15 ?
