Nearly perfect. for computers and accessories

I am very happy with my KVM. However, I needed to update a driver on one of my computers for KVM to pick it up. So if you are facing this problem, try this. The only real thing I wished for from this KVM, and the reason I couldn't give it 5 stars, is the ability to use keyboard shortcuts when plugged into the front panel ports. You must connect to the keyboard port for them to work. And the keyboard port cannot accept multiple USB inputs, so you cannot connect a hub to the keyboard port. I plug the extension cord into a hub that has a keyboard, mouse, and camera attached to it. They have a remote you can use so I can set it up, but it would be nice to have hotkeys on each port with any number of devices connected. But the remote works and lets me do what I want for the most part. So I can say that everything is going well so far. Based on my initial collaboration with him, I would definitely recommend him. Especially for the price range. Now they have to make one for two displays! :)

Pros
  • Offers speeds of up to 32.4 Gbps for DisplayPort and 18 Gbps for HDMI.
Cons
  • Makes me nervous
