Review on TRENDnet Hot Plug Auto Scan Hot Keys Compliant by Michael Wehrman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Switching works well but doesn't support video presence.

Switch works as advertised, keyboard and mouse switch perfectly between systems but does not support video presence on disabled monitor. I use 3 monitors connected to 2 PCs each, I use the 3rd as a second monitor between the 2 PCs so each PC works in dual monitor mode. When I switch from PC1 to PC2, PC1 now thinks it only has one monitor/desktop and everything from the second desktop monitor is transferred to the first one, completely repainting the desktop. Same when switching to PC2. And as you scroll through the video, it takes about 5 seconds to complete the transfer. My old KVM switch didn't have this problem, but it has PS2 style connectors and won't recognize USB devices even with an adapter.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Long time
