TCNEWCL HDMI USB KVM Switch for 2 Computers Sharing 1 Monitor and Mouse Keyboard, Supports 4K@ 30Hz for Laptop or Desktop with Remote Switch

Everything works fine, thanks! The purpose of this is to connect two Raspberry Pi computers to a one keyboard-mouse combo unit You can display this There's a few bumps along the way My Pi is connected to a standard HDMI port on the A and I am using that as my HDMI input. You are in box B. The Pi is also connected to a USB port on the A/B switch, and both ports will have USB ports. With a micro HDMI cable and an HDMI adapter connected to the second Pi, I am going to the other port of Furthermore, the second Pi's USB connects to the A/B box through the USB port corresponding to the second Pi. From the switch, HDMI output is fed to a HDMI to VGA adapter, which is connected to the monitor. In the USB port marked as "keyboard" on the A/B switch I have a Logitech wireless keyboard adapter hooked up, and the adapter communicates with The set consists of It works like a charm and allows me to switch between the 2 Pi's without issue. The display appears after the switchover has completed, but there is a slight lag between the switchover and when the display appears. Do not know whether that's due to the A/B switch going from one power source to another (powered through the HDMI cable) or if is a result of the HDMI cards built into Raspberry Pi The sun is rising. It doesn't matter to me. I do not have an issue with that. It has been a great switch for me.

In terms of function, the product achieves its purpose. In a nutshell The productivity is good The downside -Bad for gaming -Positive The answer is yes if you're just looking to use it from a productivity standpoint where you are working on two PCs. The following are negatives for me I use my G710+ keyboard with a dual USB port so that the mouse plugs into the keyboard to pass those signals on the second USB port of the keyboard. Although I plugged the keyboard USB connector into the keyboard pass through and mouse USB connector into the mouse pass through of the switch correctly, neither PC was able to recognize the keyboard or mouse when the USB cable from the switch was connected to the switch. With my spare keyboard (with a single USB connector) and mouse, I was able to get it working, but it is for a reason that this is my spare keyboard, so that option was closed to 2.

In all. While playing games, there is graphical lag caused by the HDMI signal passing through a switch. This lag is not present when a direct connection is being used. My PC system is set up to play older games that I purchased and enjoy, and I built a newer PC to keep up with current/future games, which led me to pick up this switch so I could reduce my setup to one monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

Having to use the company laptop full time now that I work from home is a pain. Certain apps and programs are not available on the In addition, the laptop is protected from data loss by usb storage and has blocked web sites, which makes it difficult for third parties to obtain the results of any personal data generated.
With this USB KVM switch instead of having two screens and keyboards, I am able to control both computers from one computer. A mouse icon has been added with a USB port to the front, followed by a keyboard icon with usb port, a shared HDMI port, and the round connector port. A dime-sized button controls the keyboard, mouse, and video from my laptop and personal mini computer box. You will see a blue LED light up on PC1 or PC2 when you press the top These connectors for the two computers are both protected with thick end caps on the HDMI cable and the USB cable representing both keyboards and mice. Small holes are provided on the underside of the unit in case I wanted to hide this unit and move it underneath my desk to save space.

Since the KVM switch has an input for a wired keyboard and an input for a wired mouse, and I have a wireless keyboard and mouse, I wasn't sure this would work. In order to make this work, I attached the wireless mouse/keyboard dongle sensor to the KVM keyboard port. Everything works fine with the video. My switcher button is on the left side of my body and it works perfectly.

Be aware that this KVM will not function with LED keyboards. You must connect an HDMI cable (at least one must be connected) to power it. There is only a 50mA HDMI spec, while there is a 500mA USB spec. This is beyond comprehension as to why they're not using USB power. LED lighted keyboard - I use it for typing - There's no way to do it! Back to work.

My problem with this switch was that it worked as soon as I had it connected, but the flickering soon progressed and only got worse over time. I told the seller about it and they suggested it might be related to The cables I used came with my Dell monitors, but I don't believe those cables to be the issue instead, I strongly believe it was the cables that are connected to the KVM In the end, I returned the switch because I got tired of trying.

It's a great switch for the price. While playing the game, it was never lagging or stuttered. The process of switching between computers was simple and quick. It is compact enough to place on your desk and close with the ease of using the switch. It is a good switch to use if you are looking for an easy light switch With HDMI and USB switching, KVM can be used to switch between the two.

Upon detecting it, my computer recognized it as a Chinese television. There was an issue with the monitor display not showing up because I accidentally turned 3D mode on in the Due to the fact that I was unaware that the device itself was being viewed as a TV, my monitor went black and I could not see my PC. To get it working again, I had to get a TV with 3D capability so the setting could be turned off.
