Comment:
Effortless setup and zero troubles. Makes it possible for me to switch among my high efficiency desktop and low-finish Linux box at will.Full switch takes just a few seconds. Enables keyboard to function in the BIOS of each of my computers. None at all. Mouse and keyboard input transfer quicker then the display. This isn't really a con or a plus, but is kind of good when working with dual monitors as I am.

Straightforward to use just plug your Keyboard-Monitor-Mouse to this device and you can split up among 2 computers Unattractive and cumbersome cord clutters up under your work region. Good cost for the value it gives.

Plugged it in, and it worked right out the box. Cost is reasonable too (considering I payed about as considerably for a Belkin KVM which was the worst acquire I ever created) None. I just hope it keeps on operating like this for a long time.

Little, nice long cables, eliminates the want for a different Monitor, keyboard, mouse although running two side by side computers. The hot crucial. My logitech wireless keyboard didn't have a scroll lock key (the hot key) so know I'm employing a back up keyboard and my wrist are paying the price.

Comment:
Long cable length, works with usb to ps2 adapter, simple hot important switching.I have to wonder if I am the only one who has figured out that these switches are stackable. I have been working with 1 of these plugged into the other to operate three computers. I don't know how numerous occasions this can be carried out but I will try it. I was thinking of attempting Iogear's 4 port switch but I don't like the what I am hearing from the evaluations on that unit. I don't believe I would be happy with the complexity of switching that unit. I would prefer to hit the scroll lock crucial as a lot of time as I have to in order to switch among computers. Going this route will cost a bit far more but at least I am confident in the final results I will get. none. I have owned two of these for at least five years with no any problems. I have seen some complaints concerning positioning this unit on ones desk. Who wants this and why? personally I have sufficient stuff on my desk. It's not like you have to hit a button on the unit. while it is equipped with lights to show which channel it is serving, I have no require to have them in sight to tell which computer it is serving. As far as mounting goes I recommend cable ties and cable tie mounts. Try mounting it with these under your desk.

Works fairly well for what it's intended to do. It was a breeze to set up and it facilitated my life so much. This KVM switch is for PSǘ and VGA only. Wish there could be USB mouse/keyboard compatibility. My new computer didn't have a PSǘ jack for the mouse, so I necessary 2 mice...I'm nonetheless giving it a 5 because it fulfilled what it's supposed to do properly.

Was using my Microsoft XP method. Built a Linux method for someone. Had two monitors, keyboards, and mice. When IOGEAR miniview arrived I plugged in. Works like a charm. Desk now clear of a monitor, keyboard and mouse. Works very nicely, which ever technique you start off up, it will address it. If you turn on the other system, the one important operation and you move in between the two systems. Excellent!! None Exceptional service from NewEgg as constantly, received in about 3 days soon after ordering.

Comment:
I've owned two of these for over five years now, running continuously 24ǝ, and recently bought yet another. No issues whatsoever. Keystrokes and mouse movement constantly come by means of perfectly. Video high quality is outstanding; practically no KVM-induced distortion. If there's one factor that bugs me, it's that pressing both Shift keys in fast succession causes the switch to enter "auto-switch" mode, where the video switches among the two inputs each and every few seconds, and the keyboard & mouse are disabled. This is by design, but it's a bit too effortless to hit by accident. (Hint: To exit auto-switch mode, press the space bar.)

This is a good KVM switch thinking of its cost point. I'm utilizing it to manage to two Linux systems, Ubuntu and openSUSE and it works fantastic. I'm making use of a Logitech USB optical wheel mouse with a PSǘ adaptor. I know some of the critiques state they had an issue working with a USB mouse with a PSǘ adapter but this setup works fine for me. The delay switching in between systems (tap the scroll lock important twice) is about a second or two at the most. If you are searching for a fairly affordable KVM switch and you don't need audio, obtain this one! None.

Although it lasted, it worked perfectly. Worked with a 1989 vintage IBM Model M keyboard. Died following three 1ǘ years...thinking about a lot of electronics last a lot longer than that, it's a con. I switch my computers, video monitors, and video cards around all the time. I hooked up a number of various combination's to this KVM switch and it worked perfectly, and then just the other day it went kaput. I wish it had lasted a bit longer, I was utilizing it with my old IBM Model M Keyboard and was forced to use an additional USB KVM switch in it's spot. Boooo.

Does what it's supposed to do. Nonetheless working immediately after OVER A YEAR! Doesn't recognize or pass threw particular keyboard function keys or extra mouse button presses if you use anything other that a normal keyboard and 3 button mouse with wheel. I use two mice and the keyboard function doesn't bother me, but if you are employing a particular keyboard, your extra keys won't function.

Works as advertised. Straightforward and functional. None. I thought I was ordering a KVM switch with DVI connectors but this 1 has D-sub. Still, I found use for it with my two other boxes I use as NAS. I still need to have a KVM with two DVI connectors.
