Review on TESmart Multimedia Multiple Consoles Keyboard External Components by Srivatsan Oling

Works well for 3840 x 2160 @ 60Hz 4:4:4

Overall this is an excellent product and I use it to get a perfect 4:4:4 3840 x 2160 @ 60Hz image on my 40 inch Samsung TV. For 10bit color I only get 30Hz but my TV has a limit so I'm not sure if the problem is with this unit I used to have the Iogear KVM which came with all the cables which is pretty nice but on the other hand I'm very satisfied for the price I paid for it and the fact that you can buy other cables quite cheaply. The icing on the cake is that you can actually buy any size cable you want and mix and match as you wish. The cables were good quality and I paid about $40 for them and if I have a remote computer I could accommodate some very long cables As you can see in the picture I'm sharing with you, I use a couple of 30cm USB and HDMI cables for my laptop. and Mac Mini and use longer 6ft cables for my desktops. Also, the box works great mixed with Linux, Windows and Mac. Because double-tapping the scroll button and then 1,2,3,4 works fine, I rarely use the Select button or the included remote. I liked the 4 iogear box select buttons I had before and also the fact that you could independently select where the sound was coming from - in fact the TEsmart people were able to add this as a feature for newer boxes - sometimes it's good to use a computer. but always get sound from the other, but it doesn't matter, the sound also works fine with HDMI from all the computers/OS I use.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other options
