Black Box ServSwitch KV9622A Dual-Head KVM Switch

The Black Box ServSwitch KV9622A is a dual-head KVM switch listed by Newegg with support for resolutions up to 2560 × 1600, suited to users who want to manage multiple computers from a dual-monitor workstation.

Recommended For

• Desk-based users switching between two computers who want to keep the same pair of DVI monitors, keyboard, and mouse connected; the KV9622A is a two-computer, dual-display KVM.
• Users with a legacy dual-DVI workstation setup that runs at up to 1920 × 1200 per display and needs a KVM without software configuration.
• People who regularly move between two connected computers at the desk and prefer front-panel buttons or keyboard hotkeys for switching.
• Users who want to share compatible USB peripherals and switch speaker or microphone connections between two computers; audio switching can operate independently of the KVM switch.

Real-World Use Scenarios

• At a desk with two DVI-equipped computers and two monitors, switch the keyboard, mouse, and both displays between computers from one console instead of maintaining duplicate input devices.
• When alternating between a primary computer and a second system used for testing or administration, select the other computer with the front-panel button or a keyboard hotkey while keeping the same dual-monitor workspace.
• In a shared workstation, use one USB keyboard and mouse across the two connected computers; switch other USB devices only when their drivers and usage are compatible with being disconnected and reconnected.
• For a desk that uses speakers or a microphone with both computers, connect the audio paths to the switch and select audio separately from the computer-control switching when needed.
• When both connected computers are on and you want to check them in turn, use AutoScan to cycle through their displays; it is a basic status-checking aid rather than simultaneous viewing.
