Two-computer PS/2 control

This Belkin OmniView switch lets one keyboard, monitor and mouse command two PS/2-equipped computers. Built-in cabling and colour-coded PC99 connectors keep the install tidy and quick. Hot-key switching and auto-scan make port changes instant without reaching for a button. Mouse and keyboard emulation ensures both systems boot cleanly every time.

Sustained desk-top operation

The all-metal enclosure dissipates heat passively so the switch runs continuously without fan noise or throttling. LED indicators show the active port at a glance during long sessions. Emulation keeps USB-to-PS/2 handshakes stable across reboots and OS switches. No external power brick is required, eliminating an extra point of failure.

2048 x 1536 at 65 Hz video ceiling

The single VGA output tops out at 2048 x 1536 resolution refreshed at 65 Hz through the integrated coaxial cables. Systems needing higher resolutions, faster refresh rates or digital video inputs will exceed this limit. Buyers driving modern 1080p-or-above displays should verify their source can scale down to the supported timing.

Questions about this item

Does the Belkin OmniView 2-Port KVM Switch generate noticeable heat or fan noise when left running continuously?

The unit has no fan and draws minimal power from the connected PS/2 ports, so it runs silently and stays cool during all-day operation.

What cables or peripherals must I already own to use this KVM switch with two computers?

You need two PS/2 keyboards, two PS/2 mice, one VGA monitor, and the built-in 6-foot cables reach each computer directly.

Will the single VGA console port work with a legacy PS/2 keyboard and mouse that I plan to keep?

Yes, the switch presents PS/2 keyboard and mouse emulation to each computer, so your existing PS/2 peripherals connect to the console side and function normally.
