Where to buy TESmart 4-Port DisplayPort KVM in India
Expect to pay roughly ₹24,000-26,500 for the TESmart 4-Port DisplayPort KVM in India right now, depending on offers and seller. I always recommend buying from retailers that give a proper GST invoice - it's what makes your India warranty claim smooth later.
In my years running a PC store, PrimeABGB (Mumbai) and Vedant Computers (Kolkata) have also been consistently reliable for verified stock - compare before buying.
TESmart 4-Port DisplayPort KVM India - 4K@60Hz Without the ATEN Price Tag
4K@60Hz KVM at Half the ATEN Price - With Real Trade-offs
The TESmart 4-Port DisplayPort KVM solves a specific problem: you have a 4K DisplayPort monitor, two to four computers, and you do not want to spend ₹25,000+ on the ATEN CS1944DP. At ₹14,999–15,999 on Amazon India, TESmart's DP KVM is the only sub-₹16,000 option in India that supports 4K@60Hz DisplayPort switching across four machines.
The trade-offs versus ATEN are concrete and worth understanding before you buy. This is not a "it depends" situation - the differences are specific, and whether they matter depends on how you use the USB ports.
TESmart's 4-port DP KVM supports 4K@60Hz via DisplayPort 1.2 at ₹14,999–15,999 on Amazon India. USB 2.0 only (not USB 3.0 or 3.1). No audio switching on the base model. Hotkey switching and remote port selector included. No rack mount. This is the right buy if you want 4K@60Hz DP switching on a budget and do not need USB 3.0 hub speeds. It is ₹10,000 cheaper than the ATEN CS1944DP for the same display specification.
What Works
The display output is the main event and TESmart delivers it correctly. DisplayPort 1.2 at 4K@60Hz is properly supported - not 4K@30Hz, not 1440p@60Hz pretending to be 4K. If your monitor is DisplayPort and your GPU has a DP output, the switching experience is clean at full resolution and proper refresh rate.
Hotkey switching (Scroll Lock + Scroll Lock + port number) is reliable and fast. The included remote port selector is a practical addition - for WFH desks where the KVM sits on a shelf or behind monitors, not having to reach for it matters. Switching time between machines is around 2–3 seconds.
The unit works without drivers - plug it in, and the keyboard and mouse register as standard HID devices on each connected machine. Windows, Linux, and macOS compatibility is straightforward.
For WFH power users who run a personal gaming PC and a work laptop through a 4K DP monitor, or a freelancer splitting time between two workstations, this is the setup that actually makes the desk clean: one monitor, one keyboard, one mouse, one KVM.
What Doesn't
USB 2.0 is the headline limitation. The USB hub ports on the TESmart run at USB 2.0 speeds. This matters if you plug in an external SSD, a USB 3.0 hub, or any device that needs USB 3.0 bandwidth. For keyboard and mouse only, USB 2.0 is entirely adequate. Once you start treating the KVM as a shared USB hub for other devices, the limitation is real.
No audio switching on the base model. If your speakers are connected to one machine's audio out and you switch to another machine, audio does not follow. You manage audio separately. For headphone users with a USB DAC or separate audio switcher, this is a non-issue. For users expecting ATEN-level feature completeness, it is a genuine gap.
TESmart is a Chinese brand. The warranty is handled through Amazon India's seller return process. There is no TESmart India service center. For most buyers this is fine - the unit either works or it does not within the first few weeks. But if you are buying this for a production environment where a failed KVM means downtime, the lack of a real RMA process is a risk to weigh.
India Pricing and Where to Buy
Available on Amazon India at ₹14,999–15,999. I have not seen consistent stock on Flipkart or MDComputers for this specific unit. Amazon India is the reliable source.
No separate import duty complexity for buyers - the listed price is all-inclusive. The product is imported, and that cost is absorbed into the listing price.
The ₹10,000 gap between this and the ATEN CS1944DP is the question you are actually deciding. If USB 2.0 is fine and audio switching is not needed, that ₹10,000 is better spent elsewhere in your setup.
Who Should Buy This
WFH power users with a 4K DisplayPort monitor who switch between a personal PC and a work machine - the classic dual-PC WFH setup that became common in India after 2020. Freelancers running two workstations off one display. Home lab builders who want 4K@60Hz display quality without the ATEN import premium. Anyone who has confirmed their workflow does not require USB 3.0 hub speeds through the KVM.
Who Should Skip This
If you need USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 speeds through the shared hub ports, buy the ATEN CS1944DP or add a dedicated USB 3.0 hub to each machine separately. If you need audio switching, the base TESmart does not do it. If your monitor is HDMI-only, this KVM does not apply - you need a DisplayPort-capable monitor. If your workflow is 2 machines only, a 2-port DP KVM at ₹7,000–9,000 is a smarter spend.
Questions
DisplayPort 1.2 supports 1440p at up to 165Hz theoretically, but TESmart's documentation specifies 4K@60Hz as the rated maximum. Real-world reports suggest 1440p@144Hz works on some setups and not others. If 144Hz at 1440p is your specific requirement, verify with the seller before purchasing - TESmart's support on this point is inconsistent.
Yes. The hotkey sequence is Scroll Lock + Scroll Lock + port number (1–4). You can also press Scroll Lock twice without a port number to cycle to the next machine.
If USB 3.0 hub speed and audio switching matter to your workflow, ATEN is worth the ₹10,000 extra. If you only need 4K@60Hz display switching and basic keyboard/mouse sharing, TESmart delivers the same display result at ₹14,999–15,999. The display spec is identical; the peripheral features and brand reliability are not.
