20 Gbps USB4 KVM for two computers

This KVM switch connects a single USB-C or Thunderbolt monitor or docking station to two laptops. It delivers data rates up to 20 Gbps and supports 8K resolution at 30 Hz, 5K at 60 Hz and 4K at 144 Hz. The unit includes a pigtail cable and two 3.3 ft USB4 cables for immediate setup. It also provides 140 W power delivery to charge a connected host.

Works with Mac and Windows laptops

The switch suits users who alternate between two computers on one high-resolution display or dock. It is not for buyers who need to share the monitor among more than two systems or who require a DisplayPort or HDMI input on the switch itself. Users without USB-C video outputs on their laptops cannot use this device.

20 Gbps bandwidth and 8K 30 Hz video

The 20 Gbps USB4 link determines whether the switch can handle your display resolution and data throughput. It carries 8K at 30 Hz, 6144 x 3456 at 60 Hz, 5128 x 2880 at 60 Hz and 3840 x 2160 at 144 Hz. If your workflow demands higher bandwidth or a different video interface, this model will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 20 Gbps USB4 link is active after connecting the pigtail cable and both 3.3 ft cables?

The switch operates silently with no LED indicators; verify the link by checking that the connected monitor reports 20 Gbps bandwidth in its on-screen display or OS settings and that peripherals on the shared dock respond without lag.

Which cables and accessories are included versus what I must provide to share a USB-C monitor between two laptops?

The box contains the KVM unit with integrated pigtail cable and two 3.3 ft USB-C/USB4 cables; you must supply the USB-C or Thunderbolt 4 monitor and any power adapter the monitor or dock requires.

Should I choose this model for 8K at 30 Hz or 4K at 144 Hz when pairing with a Dell UltraSharp U3224KB or LG 27UN850-W?

Both resolutions are supported simultaneously; the switch passes 6144×3456 at 30 Hz and 3840×2160 at 144 Hz, so select the mode that matches your monitor’s native timing and workflow needs.
