QHD docking and video calls from one desk display
27-inch IPS QHD5 MP Windows Hello cameraUSB-C up to 96 WKVM / RJ45 / DP-out
The black ProLite XB2797QSNPH-B1 brings a 2560×1440 IPS display, laptop docking and peripheral sharing into one desktop monitor. USB-C carries supported video, data and charging up to 96 W, while KVM lets suitable connected computers share a keyboard and mouse. RJ45 and DisplayPort output add wired networking and compatible multi-monitor options. A built-in 5 MP autofocus webcam with microphone and privacy shutter supports video calls and compatible Windows Hello sign-in.
Best For: Office work, spreadsheets and multi-device desks needing QHD workspace, USB-C charging and shared peripherals. Also suitable for video calls with a compatible USB-connected computer.
Before you order: The manufacturer specifies QHD at up to 75 Hz, not 100 Hz. USB-C video needs a host supporting DisplayPort Alt Mode and an appropriate full-featured cable. Charging depends on the laptop PD requirements. The manual warns that QHD 75 Hz is unavailable over USB-C when USB 3.0 data mode is selected; choose supported OSD and link settings.
What's in the Box
- Monitor with stand, power cable, HDMI cable, USB cable and USB-C cable as listed by manufacturer.
- Quick start guide and safety guide.
- Laptop, keyboard, mouse, Ethernet service, second monitor and optional mounting arm are separate.
What It Means in Practice
- Connect a compatible laptop by USB-C for video, supported data and charging up to 96 W.
- Connect another computer by HDMI or DisplayPort and the appropriate USB upstream link, then configure KVM mapping.
- Use RJ45 for wired network access through a supported host connection.
- Enable MST DP-out for a compatible second display; host, operating system, connection bandwidth and settings determine available modes.
- Adjust height by 150 mm, tilt and swivel, or rotate into portrait orientation.
- Connect the camera USB data path and grant application permissions; use the physical privacy shutter when required.
What Will Not Work
- Webcam and microphone need a working USB data connection, permissions and suitable applications; Windows Hello needs compatible Windows hardware/software.
- DisplayPort MST extended desktops depend on host and operating-system support; do not assume macOS MST extension.
- USB-C bandwidth settings can trade data speed against display refresh rate. Use the original laptop adapter if more power is needed.
- The 1 ms figure is MPRT, not a GTG response-time claim. It is not a factory-calibrated colour reference display.

Singular Expert Insight
Check the full USB-C workflow before choosing cables: video, charging, USB data and display chaining share host and bandwidth requirements. The KVM also needs the correct upstream USB connection for each computer. Treat 96 W as the maximum charging capability and test the intended QHD refresh and USB speed combination.
Buyer’s Guide
✓ Buy it if You want a black QHD office display with USB-C docking, KVM, wired-network access and an adjustable stand. You also need an integrated camera for supported calls and sign-in.
✕ Skip it if You need touch input, a higher refresh rate or guaranteed MST extension on every operating system.
→ Also consider USB-C Alt Mode, laptop charging needs, upstream USB links, bandwidth settings and second-display compatibility.
