Two-Port 4K@60Hz KVM Switch

This TRENDnet 15166A HDMI KVM switch lets one monitor, keyboard, mouse and printer serve two computers. Four USB ports on the console side handle peripherals while two HDMI inputs carry video. Built-in cables and a desktop controller keep the desk tidy for office workers or home users who swap between a PC and a laptop. Gamers needing EDID emulation or hotkey switching should look elsewhere.

Thermals Noise Power

The unit draws all power from the two USB-B cables connected to the host computers, so no external adapter is required. With no fan inside the enclosure it runs silently during normal use. Power consumption stays within the 5 V 500 mA budget of a standard USB port, adding negligible heat to the workstation.

Bundled Cables Controller

Two HDMI cables and two USB-A-to-B cables are integrated, so the switch works immediately without extra purchases. The wired desktop controller provides one-button switching when the main unit is tucked away. Audio and microphone lines are also routed through the switch, letting headsets move between systems without re-plugging.

Questions about this item

How do I install the TRENDnet 15166A and which step do people miss?

Connect both USB-A to USB-B cables to the two computers; the switch draws power and USB data from these cables, and skipping either one stops keyboard and mouse operation.

What maintenance or replacement will the 15166A need later?

The unit has no fan or battery; only the two captive USB-B cables or the desktop controller button may wear out after long use and can be replaced if they fail.

What limit appears first during sustained 4K@60Hz use?

The monitor re-syncs for about 5 to 7 seconds each time you switch, causing a temporary black screen before the 2560×1440@120Hz or 4K@60Hz signal stabilises.
