Product Features
Technical Overview
This KVM combo cable meets HDMI 2.0 specifications, providing an 18 Gbit/s bandwidth that enables 4K 60Hz video, HDR10 content, and embedded HDMI audio transmission. The integrated USB 3.2 Gen 1 (formerly USB 3.0) connection uses a Type-A to Type-B configuration, supporting the 5Gbps data rates required for keyboard, mouse, and peripheral communication through a KVM switch.
The cable construction prioritizes performance and longevity. Nickel-plated connectors resist corrosion and maintain consistent electrical contact, while the flexible Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) jacket offers abrasion resistance and manages cable flexibility in tight spaces. This design ensures stable operation across extended 10-foot runs without signal degradation.

Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is purpose-built for environments where centralized control of multiple computers or servers is essential. Its combined design is ideal for KVM switch setups in data centers, allowing administrators to manage several systems from a single console with minimal cable clutter.
It is equally effective in server rooms for hardware monitoring and maintenance, in broadcast or control rooms for multi-source video management, and in industrial or edge networking locations where space optimization and reliable remote management are critical. The cable supports both video display and the USB signals needed for peripheral control through the KVM switch.
Data Center Server Management
Connect servers to a central KVM switch for efficient hardware monitoring, troubleshooting, and maintenance without occupying individual monitor and input device sets per server.
Broadcast & Control Room Consoles
Manage multiple source computers from a single operator station, receiving high-quality 4K HDR video and peripheral control signals through one simplified cable run.
Physical Profile
The cable features a sleek black TPE jacket that blends into professional rack and desk environments. With a total length of 10 feet (3.05 meters) and a weight of approximately 15.9 ounces, it provides ample reach for typical rack-to-rack or under-desk routing while remaining manageable. The design prioritizes a low-profile, tangle-free installation.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 15.90 oz (450.76 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
