Review on πŸ” Enhanced SEO: Belkin OmniView SOHO Series 4-Port KVM Switch with Audio by Brady Penczak

Revainrating 3 out of 5

2 new appliances break within 30 days - lemons or bad food?

My job requires a KVM switch for QA purposes to test different OS/browser combinations. When setting up the lab, I chose Belkin after researching various switches. I'm setting up a lab with a Mac G4, Mac mini, NC6000 laptop, and HP DC5100 minitower. I am using an HP provided keyboard and mouse and a ViewSonic 19 LCD flat panel. The first KVM worked fine for 30 days. At this point the mouse started behaving erratically, shortly after that the switch only worked in slot #1 (laptop). I ordered a second switch and 30 days later the same thing happened again. I will be returning the switch and trying out the well-received IOGear MiniView 4 Port USB KVW.
