Review on πŸ–₯️ Tripp Lite Dual Monitor DVI KVM Switch with Audio, USB Hub & Cables: Ultimate Control for Two Monitors (B004-2DUA2-K) by Awiwi Swift

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Can be configured to work with a wireless keyboard/mouse

I work in the same office and would like it will be able to use the same two monitors, wireless keyboard and mouse, printer and scanner. Now I got it for it, even though it doesn't officially support wireless keyboards and mice. I had an old Logitech keyboard and mouse, each with its own USB receiver. I was able to get the old mouse to work with KVM but not the keyboard. To solve this problem I just bought a Logitech MK520 keyboard and mouse combo that works from a single receiver. After getting the new keyboard/mouse to work with each computer separately, I was able to get it to work with the receiver connected to KVM BUT it only seems to work if I left the old mouse receiver connected to KVM. I have an old mouse receiver in the KVM USB port labeled Keyboard and a new universal receiver in the "Mouse" KVM USB port. It doesn't make sense to me, but it works, so I'm not complaining. The company's customer service is excellent and now I have no more problems. For wired mouse/keyboard users this is a five star product and now that my wifi is working it is working for me too. I'm only giving 4 stars as a word of warning to those who want it to work wirelessly.

Pros
  • Switching between connected computers with front panel buttons, keyboard hotkeys and a feature that allows you to switch using the mouse scroll wheel
Cons
  • Compatibility
