Review on Tripp Lite DisplayPort Switch B005 DPUA2 K by Earl Ton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The one I have doesn't do what it's supposed to do

I like the design. I wanted it to work. But I can't use it due to two issues: 1) My Microsoft Comfort wired mouse is just ignored when plugged into the rear USB port marked Mouse. Maybe the port is dead? In order to use my computers, I need to connect a mouse to the front panel. Therefore, when switching computers, there are many device detection operations. 2) Sometimes it goes into a state where both computers are connected and the little green lights show they are connected, but the toggle buttons on the device don't toggle. to another computer. It's like he's locked up. The only way to switch to another computer is to turn KVM off and on again. My concerns aside, I have to admit that the quality is good. DisplayPort video is comfortably solid. But the point of KVM is convenience, and that's not the case here, so I only have to give one star.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Too stupid
