Lindy 2 Port DisplayPort 1.4 USB 3.0 & Audio KVM Switch Review

If you're specifically hunting for a KVM switch that can pass through 8K video, the Lindy 2 Port DisplayPort 1.4 USB 3.0 & Audio KVM Switch (39312) is the highest-resolution option in Lindy's KVM lineup, rated for 7680x4320 at 60Hz.

That 8K figure comes with a caveat: it's 4:2:0 chroma subsampled at that resolution, which is standard for DisplayPort 1.4's bandwidth limits, so if you actually run an 8K display day-to-day it's worth knowing colors are subsampled rather than full 4:4:4.

Video & USB

DisplayPort 1.4 with HDCP 2.2 support covers protected high-resolution content, and it steps up to USB 3.0 for the 2-port hub - a genuine upgrade over the USB 2.0 hubs on Lindy's cheaper KVM Pro models. Audio switches independently over a 3.5mm analogue connection.

Build & Power

It's a metal 160 x 100 x 40mm unit that draws from a proper 12VDC 1.5A adapter (included, with UK/EU/US/AUS plugs), and ships with 4 rubber feet - but no DisplayPort cables, so budget for cables rated up to 3m for best signal integrity.
