Important Notes

• For a stable connection, please use high-quality DisplayPort cables. For 8K resolution, a DP 1.4 or higher cable is required.
• Single monitor mode is supported. Please note that the two DisplayPort groups operate on separate signal lines. When sharing one monitor between two computers, you must use either the top three DP ports or the bottom three DP ports. Do not mix the top and bottom DP ports.
• The 3.5mm audio port is powered by the integrated USB audio processor and does not use audio from DisplayPort.
• For smoother switching, it is recommended to set the same resolution and refresh rate on both computers.
