If one of yours is a DisplayPort desktop and the other is a USB-C laptop or tablet, you've got a problem most KVM switches can't solve - they're either all DisplayPort or all HDMI. The Lindy 42346 handles both in one unit. A 1.2m DisplayPort cable for the PC, a 1.2m USB-C cable for the laptop - both built right into the switch, both ready to go out of the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eResolution holds at 4K@60Hz across both connections, with full 4:4:4 colour and HDCP 1.4 support. DisplayPort 1.2 handles the heavy lifting on the PC side, while the USB-C connection keeps modern laptops and desktop OS tablets in the loop without any adapters or dongles in the chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAudio is covered too. Plug headphones, speakers and a microphone into the front panel 3.5mm ports and they switch alongside everything else. USB 2.0 hub support means you can share peripherals across both machines without a separate hub cluttering the desk. Bus powered throughout - no external PSU, nothing extra to plug in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch via the front panel button, keyboard hotkey, or software.
