I’m excited about this new product but have just one concern:
The product doesn’t support EDID emulation at present.
At what point should we expect a firmware update to deliver this support? This is a key feature that premium KVMs need to have.
Hi Jeremy. Not sure where you saw this. It might be a bit misleading. That won’t happen because it’s a DisplayPort KVM. You’ll find EDID emulation only with HDMI.
We have many HDMI KVMs that support EDID. What makes you excited about this product? Is it triple monitor support?
This info is very irritating indeed… Why do competitors offer KVM switches with DP EDID emulation, if it’s supposedly not possible? See e.g. TESmart: https://www.tesmart.com/blogs/news/why-dp-kvm-switches-have-display-issues-and-how-tesmart-fixes-it
It would be great to get this 8K DP KVM switch with EDID emulation making it an absolutely perfect product for a gaming station.
Hi. For EDID emulation, only HDMI supports it. I bet this model uses DP as the connector and has an HDMI embedded in. It’s smart while you will need to pay a much more for that. Does that model fit your needs exactly?
Interesting. I understand DP doesn’t use the extra data line for EDID communication like HDMI does, but it burries the EDID information in the signal packages. Sounds to me like EDID emulation should technically be possible, but might be a lot more demanding as it requires a dummy video signal encapsulating the required EDID data. Would that assumption be correct?
The DP 2.0 KVM switch would fit my needs perfectly as it offers plenty of ports, USB 3.0 hub functionality and it’s not crazy expensive. But the lack of EDID emulation sets it apart from e.g. your 8KSW21-KVM that offers all that I need except only offering one single video port per computer. Either an HDMI 2.1 switch with more than one port supporting G-Sync as well as AMD FreeSync or a DP 2.0 switch with EDID emulation would do the trick here.
