The Vertiv Avocent SwitchView Desktop KVM (SCM145DPH-400) is a four-computer secure KVM switch for users who need to control multiple systems from one workstation, with DP/HDMI connectivity and support for UHD 4K at 60 Hz.
Recommended For
- Government and defense staff who need to switch between computers handling different security classifications while keeping keyboard, mouse, video, and audio paths isolated.
- Healthcare teams managing separate protected systems at one workstation, especially when they need secure switching for smart-card or biometric authentication devices.
- Security or operations staff who need to connect up to four computers and observe two active computers at the same workstation.
- Organizations that require a desktop peripheral-sharing switch designed for Common Criteria PSD v4.0 and want controls against unauthorized USB devices.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- A government or other security-conscious user needs to work across computers at different security classifications; the switch lets them share a keyboard and mouse while keeping the connected computer paths isolated.
- An operator needs to keep two separate systems visible while working; the dual-display matrix setup can show two active computers at once, helping the user compare information without repeatedly changing the displayed source.
- A user moves between connected systems during a monitoring or support shift; with Cursor Navigation Switching enabled, moving the mouse across display borders changes keyboard and mouse focus, reducing the need to reach for the switch’s buttons each time.
- A workstation has several computers but limited desk space; the user can operate connected systems with one shared keyboard and mouse instead of keeping a separate input-device set for each computer.
- A user signs in to systems that require a CAC or other supported authentication peripheral; the dedicated peripheral connection can support devices such as smart-card, fingerprint, or facial-recognition readers.
