A video matrix controller, including a receiving module, a matrix switch module and a transmission module. The matrix switch module is coupled between the receiving module and the transmission module. The receiving module includes a first port interface and a first transceiver. The first port interface receives image data and converts it to a signal, and transmits it to the first transceiver. The transmission module includes a second transceiver and a second port interface. The signal is transmitted from the first transceiver to the matrix switch module. The second transceiver receives the signal, and the second port interface converts the signal to image data and transmits it to a corresponding external display device.

Video matrix controller

A keyboard-video-mouse (KVM) switch and an operating method thereof are disclosed. The KVM switch is coupled between at least one peripheral device and controlled computers. The method includes steps of: determining whether the hot-key mode of KVM switch is started; if yes, when the KVM switch receives a first signal from a specific controlled computer of the controlled computers, directly passing the first signal to a corresponding specific peripheral device of the at least one peripheral device; when the KVM switch receives a second signal in response from the specific peripheral device within a predetermined period of time, determining whether the second signal includes a specific data; if yes, replacing the specific data in the second signal with an irrelevant data to form a third signal and transmitting the third signal to the specific controlled computer. The irrelevant data corresponds to the specific controlled computer and has no effect on the specific controlled computer.
