how to install IOGEAR 4-Port 4K Dual View DisplayPort KVMP with USB 3.0 Hub and Audio (TAA)

• Position the KVMP between your two host computers and your displays. Ensure the unit is placed on a stable surface with adequate ventilation.
• Connect each computer’s DisplayPort video outputs to the corresponding DisplayPort input ports on the KVMP. Use high-quality DisplayPort cables to guarantee reliable 4K performance.
• Attach the two DisplayPort outputs from the KVMP to your monitors. If your setup uses more than two displays, verify the unit supports multi-monitor arrangements compatible with your configuration.
• Connect USB peripherals to the KVMP’s USB 3.0 hub ports. If your host machines require separate USB signaling, use the included USB cables to link each computer to the KVMP’s USB hub paths.
• Connect the audio lines. If you’re using speakers or a headset, plug them into the KVMP’s audio ports and route the computers’ audio as desired (per-monitor audio routing may be available depending on your configuration).
• Power up the KVMP switch and both host computers. Use the front-panel switch, keyboard hotkeys, or software (if provided) to toggle between the two computers. Confirm that the monitors, USB peripherals, and audio follow the active host correctly.
• Install any recommended drivers only if prompted, though most users will experience plug-and-play operation without additional software. Test keyboard, mouse, USB devices, audio, and display output to verify full functionality.
• Save your cabling arrangement with cable ties or organizers to maintain a tidy workstation and reduce wear on cables during switching.
