Gaming applications often feature unique requirements that up until recently were not supported by KVM systems, or were simply hard to find solutions for. With the advancement in related technologies, KVM Switches Online now offers a wide range of new 'game-changing' high-performance KVM solutions that allow you to extend and switch immersive reality signals over long distances, with near zero graphics latency, at larger fps refresh rates, and with support for newer technologies such 4K, HDR, 3D, G-Sync, Freesync, V-Sync, and Multi-Stream-Transport (MST).
Please note, while we can always provide some general advice, unless a manufacturer states explicit support for a feature, we are unable to guarantee compatibility in a specific environment.
KVMs for PC & Console Gaming
We offer a wide range of high-performance KVM systems that are ideal for low-latency PC and Console video gaming applications that require higher resolutions, and higher refresh rates. Many of the KVM solutions we offer also feature more advanced features, such as HDCP and HDR, which newer gaming devices including the PlayStation PS4, the Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch now require. Extend your game console for long distances, or switch between any gaming systems with the press of a button!
KVMs for Phone & Tablet Gaming
Mobile Gaming with a Monitor, Keyboard, & Mouse - With mobile compatibility, you can connect your smartphone or tablet to an external display with a big screen, a full-sized keyboard and a mouse while charging and accessing a speedy Ethernet network all at the same time. Your phone or tablet can transform into a complete PC-like environment for a greater gaming experience through a single USB-C or HDMI MHL cable with a responsive connection.
We also offer KVM solutions where the source device can be accessed from anywhere in the world over-IP (via web browser or VNC viewer) from a mobile device such as an iPad or iPhone.
Game Streaming / Broadcast
Over Network IP
Historically IP-based KVM solutions were not recommended for low-latency gaming applications, but with the advancement in hardware technology and increase in network bandwidths, it is now possible to play your video games over the internet globally (WAN) or within a Local Area Network (LAN). PLEASE NOTE, because of issues with lag, not all over-IP solutions and applications are suitable for IP-based gaming. Your internet connection and bandwidth will also affect performance of the streaming solution. For the best performance, we would always recommend local KVM solutions or LAN-based IP implementations.
Local
We offer a wide range of local High-Performance KVM systems that are ideal for low-latency game broadcasting & streaming applications, such as E-Sports, game development, or home theaters, that require low lag, higher resolutions such as 4K UHD, 4K DCI (Cinema 4K), 2K, or 1K (1080p), and higher refresh rates such as 60Hz, 120Hz, or 240Hz.
For Local Area Network (LAN) based gaming solutions, refer to the "Game Streaming / Broadcast Over Network IP" section above.
KVMs for Virtual Reality (VR) & Augmented Reality (AR)
New game-changing solutions allow you to extend and switch immersive reality signals over long distances using KVM systems with near zero graphics latency, head tracking delay, and larger fps refresh rates.
Please Note, while we can always provide some general advice, unless a manufacturer states explicit support for a feature, we are unable to guarantee compatibility in a specific environment.
