SmartAVI SM-D2H-4S-S Review
The SmartAVI SM-D2H-4S-S is a 4-port dual-head HDMI KVM switch driving two 4K@30Hz monitors per source, with a 2-port USB hub and audio switching.
The SM-D2H-4S-S extends SmartAVI's HDMI switch line to dual monitors, letting each of four connected machines drive two 4K displays simultaneously through the switch, then swapping both screens together with one button press. That's a meaningful step up from single-head switches like the SM-UHN-4S for anyone running a two-monitor workstation across multiple source PCs. Versus the SmartAVI SM-UHN-4S, that's single-head only, cheaper, worth it if a single monitor is all that's needed. Versus the SmartAVI SM-D2H-4Q-S already in this catalog, that's the quad-monitor sibling for even larger multi-screen setups, at a higher price.
