ConnectPRO UDP-14AP
Here is a closer look at ConnectPRO UDP-14AP.
About
A single-monitor, 4-system DisplayPort 1.4 KVM built on ConnectPRO's proprietary Dynamic Device Mapping (DDM) class — a microcontroller perpetually clones the monitor's EDID block, emulating the display's presence to all four connected hosts 24/7. This is specifically transformative for macOS laptops docked via Thunderbolt 4 or Apple Silicon systems, which would otherwise suffer unrecoverable black screens on HPD loss. Despite DP 1.4's headroom, ConnectPRO conservatively certifies only 4K@60Hz over standard DP40/DP80 copper for signal fidelity, with Nvidia G-Sync, AMD FreeSync, and VESA Adaptive Sync fully validated through its passthrough. Documented firmware conflicts with LG monitors that manually toggle between DP 1.2/1.4 in their OSD menu — avoid pairing the two.

Documented with a MacBook Pro M4 over Thunderbolt 4 (driving a Dell U4025QW 5K2K display) and separately with a Framework Laptop 13 AMD on Fedora Linux, where Dynamic Device Mapping resolved GUI fragmentation cleanly on switch. A documented incompatibility exists with certain LG monitors that hardware-toggle between DP 1.2/1.4 profiles, causing a driver lock with this switch's full-time EDID emulation.
