Overview
The CS782DP takes a giant step forward from prior digital-
interfaced KVM models by offering DisplayPort functionality,
USB 2.0 peripheral sharing (via a USB hub attached to the USB
mouse port), a rich bass experience for 2.1 surround systems and
a firmware upgrade function that allows you to keep up with
latest available versions.
Supporting the latest DisplayPort technology, for premium
image quality and vivid high-definition sound for music, movies
and games.
Another new feature of the CS782DP is the implementation of a
remote port selector. This means that you can now control port
switching from the desktop while the switch itself can be placed
in a convenient, out-of-the-way location. Also, in addition to
new hotkeys, the CS782DP offers the latest mouse port-
switching function – simply double-click on the scroll wheel of
a USB mouse to change ports.
Finally, the CS782DP's new Power on detection feature means
that if one of the computers is powered off, the CS782DP will
automatically switch to the other computer if powered-on.
Featuring an unbeatable combination of DisplayPort
functionality, USB 2.0 peripheral sharing convenience and
enhanced user-friendly operations, the CS782DP allows users to
keep ahead of the latest innovations in desktop multimedia and
productivity.
