Eaton B002‑DP1AC8‑N4 8‑Port Secure DisplayPort KVM Switch

Overview :

The Eaton B002‑DP1AC8‑N4 is a secure KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switch with eight isolated ports that allows a single user to access multiple computers from one console while preventing data leakage between attached systems. It is typically deployed by IT engineers and security architects in government, defense, financial, and high‑security environments where strict data separation and integrity are required.

This unit supports DisplayPort video and USB keyboard/mouse interfaces, delivering up to 4K Ultra HD resolution (3840 × 2160 @ 30 Hz) on the connected display. Each port pair (keyboard/mouse, video, audio) is electronically isolated to prevent cross‑channel data transfer, meeting rigorous secure peripheral sharing requirements under the NIAP (National Information Assurance Partnership) Protection Profile 4.0.

The hardware is designed as a desktop‑style unit with a metal chassis and push‑button port selection. It integrates an external universal power supply supporting 100–240 V AC input and provides interoperability across international deployments. The KVM switch does not require rack mounting hardware but can be positioned in secure workstations or consoles as part of a controlled access node.

From an integration perspective, the B002‑DP1AC8‑N4 interfaces with DisplayPort‑equipped hosts and USB peripherals without needing software drivers. It is used in conjunction with standard USB keyboards/mice, DisplayPort monitors, and optional smart card/CAC readers for authenticated access. It supports common operating systems including Windows, macOS, and Linux.

A practical deployment example includes centralizing administrative control of segmented network domains for security operations center (SOC) consoles or classified computing zones while maintaining NIAP compliance for peripheral isolation. By using this KVM switch, teams avoid the need for multiple physical consoles and reduce desktop clutter while meeting secure information assurance standards.

This device is not suitable for high‑density server rack environments where multiple users require access or where networked KVM management is needed. It also does not provide power redundancy, remote IP control, or integrated cable routing for large scale deployments.
