Your desc: "Instant monitor, mouse and keyboard switching via emulation" - does this item actually have DP emulation (EDID)?
Thank you for your inquiry,

Since DisplayPort is a data signal connection instead of a typical video signal, most manufacturers including Avocent have not implemented DP video emulation. It is typical to notice a couple of second delay during switching with the SV240D.

However, SmartAVI did recently came out with a new switch series (D2H-4P-S / D2H-4P-Duo-S / D2H-4P-Quad-S) that emulates HDMI video signal over a DisplayPort connection.

Thank you for the feedback, I will fix that bullet based on the product family asap.

Does the SV240D-001 KVM switch support Peripheral Emulation? I recently bought several KVMs that did not have this feature and had to return them, as lack of this feature negates the purpose of having them.
Thank you for your inquiry,

The Avocent SV240D supports Emulation for the USB Keyboard and Mouse ports (USB-HID devices). Transparent USB Peripheral ports are transparent by nature to allow any USB device to work on the KVM.

For a reccomendation based on your application, please feel free to contact your KVM Switches Online sales representative directly.

Does this KVM support 3440x1440 (21:9 ultra-wide) at 60Hz?
Thank you for your inquiry Mike,

The SV240D can support HD 4K resolutions up to 3840x2160 @ 30Hz, so "3440x1440 at 60 hrz should not be a problem on this switch" (confirmed with the factory).

Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you out with.
