Rating + 3 Ehhh.. Should Have Been Better


Pros: Colored cables, listen to audio on one PC while working on another, nice design, being able to disable the beep

Cons: Pain in the rear to install the drivers on a PC, buggy keyboard

Other Thoughts: Ive only had this KVM switch for a few days and so far Im not too happy with it. When I do any ctrl or shift commands some random letter gets stuck (usually not the letter i pressed) and continues till you hit another key. Sometimes it doesnt even register keystrokes. I know its not the keyboard since its new and it hasnt happened when i plugged directly into it. Also, when I go to plug the USB into the computer, the "add a new hardware" screen comes up but the mouse and keyboard doesnt work (the drivers for the mouse and keyboard are already on the PC) so I have to have at least a mouse plugged in before i plug in the KVM so I can install the KVM drivers. And for some reason my main PC didnt like the first slot with the mouse and keyboard but its fine on the last slot. OH and FYI to disable the annoying beep is Scroll lock, Scroll lock, B.

Beside all its flaws, its an OK KVM switch.

Rating + 2 Keyboard Problems Make this KVM Unusable


Pros: It basically works out of the box. Keyboard, mouse, monitor all seem to work on first blush.

Cons: The keyboard's keys, when connected through this KVM, often get "stuck". So the words you type often have repeat letters in them.

Holding down a key does not result in the typed letter being repeated indefinately. So if you are a gamer and use your keyboard to navigate, you will be very dissapointed.

Video quality is not very good. There is strange shadowing artifact around the higher spatial frequency display elements which makes reading smallish print (say, 8pt or less) difficult.

Rating + 5 Fantastic..


Pros: We've got two of these in different server closets. Wow. Beautiful design. Best KVM I've used hands down. It's got usb or ps2 connections for mouse/keyboard.. and mic and audio passthrough. I can't think of a great use for it yet... but you can choose to see/control the screen of one machine, and pull the audio from another, just by toggling the front switches.

Cons: DVI would be nice...
