Why EDID (AUX) Emulation?

  • Consistent Screen Resolutions
    • With EDID (AUX) Emulation, your screen resolutions stay static, providing a stable visual experience.
  • Persistent Icon and Window Positions
    • Switch channels without the chaos. Icons and window positions remain undisturbed, ensuring a smooth transition between tasks.

Multi-Head Stability
In multi-head setups, monitor positions stay intact, maintaining the organization you've carefully set up within your operating system.
Navigating DisplayPort systems has historically posed challenges due to the use of (AUX) for EDID information communication. Unlike DVI and HDMI, where emulation is straightforward, (AUX) introduces complexities. We are thrilled to introduce this groundbreaking solution to the market, offering unparalleled stability and consistency in DisplayPort systems.

Overview

Introducing the SM-EDPN-8S, a superior KVM solution for your needs. Using EDID (AUX) Emulation, your window and monitor configurations remain intact when switching channels, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted workflow. This KVM supports UHD resolutions up to 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz, delivering crystal-clear visuals for your demanding tasks.

Flexible Control

  • RS-232
    • Any external device or program supporting RS-232 can control the SM-EDPN-4D. The SM-EDPN-4D uses a very simple protocol, enabling easy integration with the RS-232 control devices.
  • USB/Keyboard
    • Hot keys enable the user to switch and control all the different functions of the KVM Switch

Flexible Sharing

Independent Simultaneous Device Selection
Flexibility is key with the SM-EDPN-8S. It enables the use of a USB keyboard and mouse on one computer while other USB peripherals such as speakers, scanners and printers are connected to other computer sources. The SM-EDPN-8S maintains the ability to switch all connected devices to any one of the computer sources as with any other KVM Switch in the market.
