The IPGard 4-Port Single-Head Dual-Link DVI-I KVM Switch allows users to control keyboard, video, and mouse operation on up to four computers with DVI displays or HDMI/VGA displays with an optional adapter. It supports native video resolution up to 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz and can also support up to 4K (3840 x 2160 at 30 Hz) resolutions via an HDMI-to-DVI adapter (available separately). It features a dedicated CAC port and allows users to assign specific peripheral devices to this port. Once a peripheral device has been registered by an authenticated admin, users can then switch the connection between that device and the PC's along with KVM switching. Designed for use in secure defense and intelligence applications, this switch is NIAP PP 3.0 certified and includes security features that meet Information Assurance safe control standards.

This switch emulates the presence of a keyboard and a mouse for every attached computer through a USB cable, preventing direct connection between the peripherals and the connected computer. It also prevents unwanted and unsecure data from getting transmitted through the DDC lines by means of secure EDID learning and emulation.

The unit is equipped with internal anti-tamper switches, which sense attempts to open the device enclosure. Once the system identifies such an attempt, the unit shuts off connections with all the attached PCs and peripherals, disabling any functionality. The controller of the unit comes with a protection feature that prevents reprogramming or reading the firmware. The enclosure is also protected with a tamper-evident seal to provide a visual evidence if the unit has been opened.

Q: 6. Hello, Do you know if most of wireless mice or bluetooth keyboards works with this device? Thanks!

A: The KVM has two kinds of USB ports, keyboard / mouse specific and general. The specific ones are connected to KVM itself then repeated as emulated device to computers. The general one just works as directly attached USB device. If you connect your mouse or keyboard on generic USB port, they works just like they are connected to computer so they should work as expected. However if you connect through specific port, the mouse or keyboard needs to be a standard USB HID mouse or keyboard to work properly. That means generally bluetooth technology won't work, and some keyboard and mouse with advanced features won't work.

Q: 9. What is the hardware revision of this switch?

A: I'm very sorry but the revision is not something the manufacturer tells us before they ship them to us. If they had different part numbers, it would be easy to tell but since they don't, we cannot guarantee which revision is inside the box. Sorry for the inconvenience.
