A KVM switch (Keyboard-Video-Mouse) is a major boon to anyone who has to work with more than one computer. The Rosewill RKV-2UC 2-Port USB KVM Switch manages four computers using only one monitor, keyboard, and mouse. You can change computers without having to give up the keyboard and monitor you're already using, sometimes via the keyboard itself. Imagine the space and money you'll save, only having to buy one monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

Can't beat the price.

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Cheap, works well even with a USB hub inline.

Cons: Cables are a little short, no audio connectors.

Other Thoughts: Best price on a KVM I have seen so I figured I'd give it a try. The unit looks a little flimsy and the cables should be about a foot longer to make it a bit more versatile. Unlike other far more costly models this has no audio pass through but considering the savings it's a minor problem. I have used a USB hub to allow more connections and it works well but adds almost a min to peripheral detection. Many far more expensive KVMs I have tried will not work properly with a hub. Overall I'd recommend this to anyone on a budget looking for a basic KVM.

Reviewed By: Dougle on 10/30/2008

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Easy one button switching between computers. Easy setup. All USB powered and driven.

Cons: USB cable could be a bit longer as I use my laptop as the second computer and my video connection is in the back but the USB is on the side and it will not reach without an extension.

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Works great, I notice a little distortion on the analog signal, but it's not noticeable. You have to look for it and only at higher resolutions.

Cons: HDMI / DVI support would be better. No audio connector.

Other Thoughts: Wish it had the audio connector.

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Works well, just as good as my rackmount KVM at work but much less $$$$

Cons: The USB cables for the workstations are well thin. If you used it alot I could see you cutting or breaking these.
