Two computers, two monitors, one docking station
The multifunctional docking station AXAGON HMC-DL-KVM combines DisplayLink technology, a KVM switch, and a USB-C 10Gbps hub in one device. Thanks to DisplayLink, it supports connection of two independent external monitors with resolution up to 4K/60Hz, even for MacBooks that natively support only one external monitor, or PCs without DisplayPort Alt Mode support. The integrated KVM switch allows sharing a single workstation between two computers – for example, a work and a personal laptop, two company laptops, or a MacBook and a Windows PC. With the press of a button, you switch the monitors, keyboard, mouse, USB peripherals and network connection between computers without the need to reconnect cables. The setup is completed with Power Delivery up to 100 W to power the connected laptop.
DisplayLink: Two 4K monitors over one USB cable (no DP Alt Mode required)
Need to connect two external monitors but your computer’s USB port does not support video output via DisplayPort Alternate Mode? The solution is DisplayLink technology, which transmits video over a USB data connection – DP Alt Mode is not necessary to connect monitors. Just one USB C-C or USB C-A cable between the computer and the docking station gives you two external monitors with up to 4K resolution at 60 Hz simultaneously. There are two HDMI ports and one DisplayPort, and monitors can be combined as HDMI + HDMI or HDMI + DisplayPort. The left HDMI output is shared with the DisplayPort output and cannot be used at the same time.
MacBook with two independent external monitors
If you want to connect two external monitors to your MacBook but your model natively supports only one, DisplayLink technology allows connecting two independent external monitors with up to 4K/60 Hz resolution also to compatible MacBooks with limited native external display support. Monitors can be used in extended desktop mode showing different content on each. To use DisplayLink video outputs, installation of the DisplayLink Manager app is required.
KVM switch: Work and personal computer without constant cable swapping
Your work laptop, home PC, or even two company laptops no longer need separate monitors and peripherals. The integrated KVM switch (Keyboard-Video-Mouse) lets you control two computers with one set of monitors, keyboard, and mouse, while sharing connected USB devices and other peripherals between them. Using the A/B button, you simply select which computer will currently use the full workstation. With a single press, you switch your entire workspace without disconnecting and reconnecting individual cables.
12 ports: USB 10Gbps, HDMI, DisplayPort, Gigabit Ethernet, card reader, audio, and 100W power
Instead of several adapters, you get one central hub for connecting your full workspace. The docking station offers 12 ports, including five USB-A and USB-C data ports with speeds up to 5 or 10 Gb/s, Gigabit Ethernet, SD and microSD card readers, and a 3.5mm audio jack. Via the USB-C Power Delivery input, an active laptop can be powered with up to 100 W. Included cables allow both host inputs to connect to computers with USB-C or USB-A, enabling you to combine devices with different connector types.
Package contents: Everything needed to connect two computers
Included are cables for various docking station connection methods to computers with USB-C and USB-A. This makes the KVM setup adaptable to a combination of two modern laptops or workplaces where a USB-C computer is used alongside an older USB-A device. Also included is a power cable to ensure separate power supply to the docking station.
