will the video feed out to two monitors if a dvi splitter cable is used?
Thank you for your inquiry. Due to the nature in which KVM switches handle EDID info, we would be hesitant to say that it would work. While this is a dual-link KVM, it is unfortunately not dual-head. Essentially it will allow double the video throughput to a single monitor for greater resolutions than can be accomplished with single-link DVI.

Typically, for that type of setup, you would need a dual-head video card and a dual-head KVM switch.

The Switch view SC780 is an 8-port dual-head KVM in the Secure SwitchView family:

My organization currently has over 270 of the SC4UAD-001 model KVM. Some desks have two of these which we would like to replace with one 8-Port switch. Does the Avocent SwitchView SC380, have the exact same connection ports as the 4UAD-001 with an additional 4 ports?
Thank you for your inquiry. It appears that the connections are similar (with DVI-I and USB), but the security features may not be. The SC380 will allow the sharing of some USB devices, where the SC4UAD supported only a USB keyboard and mouse.

According to Avocent, the direct replacement for the SC4UAD-001 would be the SC640-001 (https://www.kvm-switches-online.com/sc640.html) or the SC680-001 (https://www.kvm-switches-online.com/sc680.html for the 8-port model).

There are a number of Avocent Secure SwitchView products available (https://www.kvm-switches-online.com/avocent-switchview-sc.html), depending on your specific need. We would love to speak with you in greater detail about your project. Please contact a KVM Switches Online representative directly at 1-877-586-6654 or via our online chat feature.

I see the SC380 has the Analog pins on the DVI port also. Does this mean it will switch analog signals also if a users want to use an analog only configuration.
Thank you for your inquiry. This unit supports the DVI-I specification, which will allow for analog or digital DVI connections. Please note, however, it will NOT convert digital signals to analog or vice versa.
